Electronic Ignition System Was Terrible — It broke down on me a lot. It was a beautiful car to look at and it hauled ass but damn that electronic ignition system was the worse

Pros

I liked pretty much everything-built it for my wife-0she was scared to drive it so we sold it.

Cons

Not a thing

25

Bottom Line-if You Are The New Owner You Are Happy:0) — This was a very fun car to build/own and drive-It looked amazing-handled and drove comparable to a cadilac but with alot more power! You cant beat a pistol grip four speed! Not the fastest car Ive driven but still very repectable!

Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.)

Pros

After I had her painted and striped and put the vinyl top on, she was a good looking ride. Used to drive her through the old "Triangle" on Indy's south side...

Cons

After having the engine rebuilt, the car was never the same and she just fell apart, piece by piece. I bought her in '77 and finally sold her, for $300.00, in '84.

I Had A Love/hate Relationship With This Car! — My '72 Charger was Petty Blue with a white halo vinyl top and white pinstriping. She had blur vinyl interior. I installed a Pioneer 8-Track, with AM/FM and Jensen Co-axil speakers. She was my pet project. Then the engine block cracked in 3 places. Had the 318 rebuilt, but she never ran the same again. Her get up & go, had got up & left.

Raw Power — original 318 engine was swapped to a 440. Tranny and rest of driveline also needed to be changed. I had tons of parts for this thing and never finished, bummer. I was in the process of putting in the 4 link and 10 pt roll cage when I sold it. I never did get to drive it with the 440.
