Default Re: 1970 Challenger R/T convertible restoration

Yeah, but when was the last time you saw one of those? My dad and I just got back from a car show in Allentown and in front of us in line were some guys wearing Mopar jackets, so we struck up a conversation. They mentioned a 68 or 69 Hemi Coronet in Central Jersey that is all original and needs restoration. They "knew a guy that knew a guy"...ya know same old story, but they mentioned racing at Englishtown and showing at the nats and Carlisle, so I was wondering if you knew anything about this coronet?

No, that Coronet doesnt ring a bell.

Once the Challenger is painted, is that shop closing up permanently? He should rent it out for one-car-at-a-time, paint jobs......like mine.

Actually, the building was rented. There will be a new bodyshop moving in and starting sometime in February. There was a stipulation made that we would be able to stay there and finish the Challenger. I am hoping to stay on with the new shop, I spoke with the new owners and they seem ok, but didn't talk details yet. They like the work I am doing on the Dodge, so that is a good thing...kind of a rehersal so to speak.
