In this video, we talk about the history and future of this 1970 Dodge Challenger. It was purchased by my in-laws in 1988. The car went through various drivetrain setups throughout the he 90s and was raced at Beaver Springs Dragway. It ran a best of a 12.9 with the current drivetrain. As time went on, the car sat and was sold in 2006 to free up some cash for her dad's business. The previous owner, who purchased the car off her dad and owned it for 17 years, was gracious enough to appear in the video and provide some history on it.

Going off some basic information her dad shared before he passed, we took a chance and located the car on August 19th, 2022. A year later on August 18th, 2023, we had made a deal and the car was coming home.

More than just a piece of family history, this car also represents the friendship that are made in the car community over a hunk of iron. In addition to having the car back in the family, we've developed a friendship with the previous owners.

Thanks for watching and letting us share our story with you.
