I am building a 70' Challenger R/T right now myself with a 25.5 cage for our local Heads Up Drag radial & 10.5 racing & this is car is as close as I have ever seen to how I want my car to look & sit when done. Steff, this is one of the coolest E-bodies ever built in my opinion. I can't wait to get mine done. I used to Love seeing it out at Milan. Good luck with it John.

You Guys are killing me with all the kind words. It's very appreciated!! Even, though I don't own it anymore, I'm still very proud of it & yes, I do miss it. I was watching it on RJ & noticed it wasn't selling for the 2nd time being offered & was trying to work it out to where I could've bought it back, but I didn't have all the dough yet, so I wasn't going to make an offer without being ready to buy. Then, I had heard it sold again, so like the old saying goes....."ya' snooze, ya' looose". It's all good though. I've got something else in the works (no , it's not the Mustang I bought), so it's all good!!

Very Simple......got in a little over my head with it, money wise during the 10.5 transformation.....tack that on to some other household debt, & slow work at the time & Viola!! I wanted to eliminate the debt, so the car got sold.......Paid the debt, put the rest in the bank & that's that. I was stupid, plain & simple.

Steff,
Your car was top notch. I would miss it also...
But as what you staed that you had to do what needed to be done. I don't think you were stupid..I think you have your priorities straight.
Can't wait to see a new project from you man

Having the priorities straight is something I can relate w/. Thats why I sold mine off too. I'd still love to hear the followup stories on the Challenger though. We need to see some updated pics of it. I miss seeing it.
When you decide to quit, THAT is the moment when you would've succeeded..
