We is the law.  Sorry to hear about this Simon. I don't think we've seen you entirely sober yet, but we kinda like you that way! I'm always struck by just how enthusiastic you are about your car & attending runs, shows & races in it. It's very definitely built to be enjoyed, rather than just polished. I'd say you're just the kind of owner the Mopar guys should be looking for. I've joined a few one make owners clubs over the years, mainly to make use of their knowledge & contacts, but have found they all tend to be a bit obsessive about it all. This is supposed to be fun! Policing a forum can be a bit of a minefield. We're been very fortunate, (so far), not to attract trouble makers. The emphasis here is on enjoying the scene, whatever section of it interests you, & helping others to do the same. In the 5 years or so we've been running, we've only had a couple of instances where we've had to step in. That's down to the goodwill of the members -you lot. We is a happy, fluffy little forum -& Taz will slap anyone who says we ain't! |

Well most forums (apart form this and one or two others) get mobbed by twats in the end.  Hey ho... For what it's worth I think your car is fab and if I could afford it I'd have one just like it (in Black of course) It has bags of character and is a real head turner. Just my thoughts  |

Was thinking the other day that the members on this forum are well behaved! Ive also been on some forums that are frequented by t*****ers. Even the bad languauge on here is minimal! (not that I dont swear !)I think its inevitable(laws of averages 'n' all that!) there will be an invasion of problem members at some pioint.

I was going to say something almost like that,the mma has become just like the aaci,you cant even swear on the board because it is a "family messageboard" well what are they going to do at a show bugger all its modding for the sake of modding as far as i am concerned a dictatorship. thank you all so much for your kind comments,i honestly do feel this club is much more fuzzy wuzzy than the others,as i dont think you take yourselfs to seriously and you are there for the reason we all should the love of whatever you are into and the people around us that are likminded. |

 Everyone warned us Taz's Charger would be a money pit & would go on eating money till it bankrupted us. They were right, but we're focusing on that first trip out in it when it's finished. It'll all be worth it when it's back on the road. Good luck Si!

I am getting it done by a soda blaster up near birmingham,he has quoted me under 10k for all the bodywork panels etc and painting,he also think its going to be a bit less the pain is going to be all the little bits and mechanical stuff,but fortunatly me and kiwi are going to put that stuff together so that wont cost me much |
