Pretty sure I saw your car down the road from me years before Tony got his hands on it...used to pass it sitting on the chaps lawn every day on my way to work..thats why I wanted to have a look at it when Tony advertised it.

I know that the chap was friends with Roger Luty as it seemed to be outside his house a lot, so it might be an idea to give the Surrey Muscle lads a bell and see what they know...?

Cheers Dan, I'll see if I can catch up with them at Wheels Day. Think I'll have to park outside though.

By the way, have you ever bumped into James Lee? He lives in Alton, and I think he's driving a Saleen Mustang. He's a big Mopar man. Used to own that 'Cuda on the Cracklin' Rose thread.

CRAIG, I'll have some pictures on here this weekend. It's always dark by the time I get in.

[quote="Mopar Mark"]Finally picked up my Charger from TonyO today. Well pleased.

I want to try and find out some history. It's current reg is WGC 372F, but it used to be VRV 567K when it was first imported. An old registration document seems to imply it has been in the UK since '76, and shows a change of owner 1.7.82. It's been around Farnborough, and then the Bordon area ever since. It use to be black according to the reg doc. Was a 318, but at some point had a 383 fitted.

Does this help? The jack up bars and Thrush side pipes will give you an idea of the year????

Yuk! I thought it looked bad now...

Thanks for the picture though. I'm guessing it's from late seventies/early eighties. Didn't know it was white at any time. Knew it was black once. Got anymore pictures?
