It's HEMI time !!! Compliments of NJSteve

[njsteve]

As part of my mid-winter routine I started all the cars today and drove them around a few miles. I got the Charger running. As usual, I just hooked the battery up, let the electric fuel pump fill the bowls, and then turned the key. She started on the first crank.

I topped off the air in the tires- after a year they all lost exactly 9 psi each. Went for a slow drive on the 40 year old tires which felt like I was driving a shopping cart. Boy, I forgot how much nicer these things ride better on radials.

Stills idles and runs very nicely. She is quite &quot;peppy&quot;, a term my Gramma used to say about her 1964, 426 powered Dodge. There's nothing like a hemi with headers. It sounds like a 1970's SuperStocker. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

If you have an interest in the car and have any questions feel free to PM me or email me. I'm happy to provide any info you need. Thanks, Steve

P.S. Thanks to Nickey Chicago's Stefano Bimbi for guiding me through the process of consigning the car.
