Is that the Canadian car you were talking about?
Where was it from? I don't recall seeing it before.
Congrats 
Dave
No it isn't. I just couldn't get the Canadian car within my budget. I've come close to a few convertible purchases over the last several months. I'm glad i held off.
This was a response to a wanted ad that I placed looking for a driver or older restoration vert. Super nice seller. Car is out of Texas and has been hidden away for many years

Congrats on the score!
Hi Ray,
Did you have a similar type car? I seemed to remember that you might have had a survivor black, red interior 318 vert at one time?

True, but it looks like it picked up an R/T hood along the way. Nice car. I had an A66 340 covertible that looked just like it.
Yes, the previous owner said the body shop in 84 decided to sandblast the car to strip it and warped the hood. So he decided to go with a used r/t hood.
The previous owner also had bought a 71 Challenger vert new but said it rotted out. He had the body guy take the seats for the purple car since they were perfect and the purple cars seats were beat.
I found his broadcast sheet yesterday in the upper rear seat back springs so i mailed it to him for a keepsake!

Tom, great looking Challenger. I'm glad I ran into you at Carlisle. I hope to see this car soon - maybe the next Harleysville WalMart cruise night???

Looks real nice! Good for you. What kind of tires are those?
They are 14" Goodyear Eagle RH. I've never heard of them. The last owner said about 15 years old. They are in great condition but I don't trust them being so old
