Sammy Maloof is done with the charger. It was well over 140+ hours, and lots of it entailed correcting mistakes either I made or others who had worked on the car had made. So on my next update I will detail everything he has done to get it to this point. What point you ask? …

I trailered the Charger home last Monday, and since it was the first time I have ever trailered anything, let me just say I was stressed. But all went fine. Got it home and put it in the Car Capsule I brought a month or so back. Today I brought it out and took the …

Over a year since I updated, and I figured I owed everyone an explanation for the long wait. Haven’t done a thing to the charger since my last update due to the wife and I getting a divorce. Been an ongoing battle since March of last year. May very well not be able to keep …

With the divorce final in June and that whole mess behind me, I finally got the car out of the ex-wife’s garage and took it back to Sammy Maloof’s garage to get the few things needing fixing over with. First, the car hasn’t been started since last September, so the fluids needed to be changed, …
