It was so nice today I decided to see if the Charger would fire up. I hate to admit ...but I think I only drove it once last summer! Threw the battery charger on it, spun it over a couple of times, turned on the fuel pump....damn it fuel line leaking. Snuged it up, tuned the pump back on, turned over about 3 or 4 times and fired right up!

Took it around front and washed it, then drove around for awhile. Our dog Hemi decided she wanted her pic took so....

I would let that dog have her picture taken also. Nice car. Glad to see someone has other bodies such as myself.

Thanks Eric, by the way I don't think I posted on your A-body thread..Thats a beautiful Dart you have.

Forgot to mention in my first post, that the Charger was my high school car. 340/4sp.

What year is she 72? I had two 74's back in the early 80's. Love those cars, hell I love all the Mopars ! Serious !

Thanks Kent, Its a 73 Rallye. Its not the origional 340, but it is the origional 4speed pistol grip. Also the vinyl top, and uncracked dash pad are origional too. It's been through a couple of color changes, started off brown with the black rallye stripe, then silver with a black rallye stripe, and now B5. Paint was actually done back in the 80's.

Got any pics of your 74's?

Totally Mopar for me!

That is a good looking Chsrger. I wish mine looked that good. I also play Mopar Alphabet Soup. I've got a few A bodies, a pair of B bodies, a few F bodies, and a pair of M bodies. Next year I hope to add a pair of C bodies.

I sure do Scott, but you wouldn't like them. It's a picture of her sitting in a field with the back bumper sitting in the back seat still attached to the bumper shocks. Well it's not in the back seat so to speak but they're in tha same spot. Long story.
I looked last night for over a hour to find them with no luck. I going to give it another shot here. Wish me luck.

Its actually in alot more pieces now than it was in this pic...

And now I can't find a pic of my 74...I bought it way back in the 80's and it's never been on the road. It's not in too good of condition, but it is a 74 Rallye with a 400 Mag. Black with that yellow-orange strip down the side.

Hey I had to get out too! Took the 54 Plymouth out and found a few projects to work on before I can get too far...... Like the FUEL PUMP! :ack2:

So give me a few days and I will be back on the road! :driving:

Startying to get nice alright had about 8 inches of snow on Easter Sunday, all gone now mostly. Looked again for another hour last night for those pics of my Charger and my Duster. I'll find them if it kills me or the wife does. She looks good all painted up. Like I said love them Chargers!
