1971 Dodge Charger SE By Robert Wallace

This is my Mopar:

I bought my Charger SE from the original owner in 2001 after being laid off from Intel. Thanks to the lovely separation $$$ that Intel offer me to leave, I bought this just days after being let go. Well, the car is a bit of an odd ball. Yes, it is an original triple black 1971 U-code Charger. After taking the car home and doing a little investigating I found that the car originally had a black stripe. How weird is that, how many black cars do you know that have a black stripe. Also, to top it off the car has manual brakes, manual steering, no AC, no power anything!

Anyway, I was originally looking for a car for my buddy and found this car via my brother. As I relayed the info to my friend he told me that he didn't like the 3rd generation Charger!!! He wanted a Roadrunner or GTX! Well, the more I tried to talk him into buying this car the more I liked it and told him that if he didn't buy it, I would. Well I did buy it and it's been garaged since birth from the original owners garage to mine. 440magnum, slap stick auto console, leather inserts make out the only options on this car. Oh, by the way he originally ordered a 383mag, and got the 440 by mistake....he didn't complain, and neither am I!
