hey good point there jesse! i wasn't even thinkng about size being proprtional to each other. DUH i used to own a 74 dodge charger and they do have some fairly good sized hoods on them and are basicly monstrous when compared to a datto hood.

i know this is a datto board but i just gotta tell you guys my charger story since i was reminded of it. i'm by trade a mopar freak as well as a datsun lover. i'm sort into fords but just mostly the 2.3L. any way i saw my charger sitting out next to a parking lot and liked the lines of it. i didn't think much of it till i noticed that over a course of a year the car had not moved. i was interested in a summer project so i left a note on the windshield. the next day i get aphone call from the owner and she quoted me the price of a whopping $200. i asked her if there was any problmes with it and she said she didn't think it would run. well i come up with the cash and got the title. i take my parents car up there with a ittle bit of gas in a can. take the air cleaner off and prime the car pumping the gas pedal a few times. hooked up the jumper cables let it sit for about 5 minutes thengave it a try. nothing happened... but on the third try it roared to life i couldn't belive it. i parked my parents car ,locked it up and drove the charger home, it was gutless as all hell but it drove. after that i went back to my parents car and picked it up. now i'm back home and doing the basic maintanance stuff to it. to my amazement i had been driving it on only 3 cylinders!! all the other plugs were fouled with oil. i changed them out and went for a test drive. i tryed to take off like it was still gutless with out thinking about it and "accidently" laid a nice patch of rubber in front of the parents house . sadly i was stupid and sold it for $600 and motorcycle about a year later. i definitely miss that car. did i mention that this motor had ovr 300,000 miles on it with nothing more done to it than a rebuilt carb? never gave me poblems just he occasional heat soak on a really hot day that was it.
