Bad new challenger
 

I knew it was only a matter of time that they would bring back one of the old muscle cars of my day. I just did'nt know which one. I thought it would be either a barracuda or a challenger. I own a white 66 barracuda, 273 commando, 4 speed. when i bought it it had been in dry storage for 20 years. I did'nt have to do to much to it to make it road worthy again. I never owned a challenger, it was'nt because i could'nt afford it , i just never found one that was in good enough shape(i am originally from southern illinois). But i have owned mopars all my life. i have had 2 1970 darts, 3 1973 dusters, 1 1977 roadrunner 4 speed, 2 dart sports (looks like a duster), and i currently own my 66 barracuda and a 1970 duster w/ overboard 360 (388) that has over 600 horsepower. SORRY EVERYONE I DON'T CURRENTLY HAVE PICTURES, i recently lost my house to a fire. The cars is all i have left. I think the new challenger is a awsome addition to the dodge line up. I am also glad to see them decide on one of the most influential cars chrysler ever built. Ilove barracudas first always have, but i can tell you this- when i get the insurance check for my house , i will save the money to buy one as soon as they are ready to sell. I always say that everything in life is a viscious cycle, and in this instance i was right!! The price of gas does'nt bother people that much, and when you are driving a car like the new challenger , you really don't care. I know i won't!!! The muscle cars are back . It may be short lived....enjoy it while you can !!! Like my father always used to say- you only live once, and your time on this earth is numbered like the hairs on your head...enjoy everything you can until that last hair is plucked...



Speed is just a question of money...How fast do you want to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
