Bringing a car out of winter storage is always a special moment. But when that car is a perfectly restored 1970 Challenger R/T, the moment becomes that much more epic.

I feel blessed to live in a less populated area where we’re able to drive our muscle cars on good roads and a lot less traffic and don’t have to worry about upsetting the neighbors that don’t appreciate what we love!

Some people can be CRUEL. Mine, like yours was a COMPLETE bare body up restoration. GOBS of money and spared no expense. I also LOVE the whine of that gearbox !! What beautiful music she makes !! She's an absolutely beautiful car !! Enjoy .... and hit 3rd gear once in a while and think of me !! GOD BLESS YOU SIR !!

Outstanding Nick. Watching you drive that beautiful Kowalski reminds me of a funny story when I was 15. I talked my dad into using his 70 GTO Judge to get my steering papers. I left the local Legion Hall with the Examiner with one hand on the steering wheel and one hand on the gear shift knob. He immediately instructed me to go around a War monument then park where I had started and cut the engine. He then gave me a stern look and said " young man this is as far as I go with someone who drives with one hand on the steering wheel." Sonofabitch must of. Had muscle car envy

Who in the world would down vote this. Two beautiful classic muscle cars representing the glory days of the factory muscle wars. Although I had a diehard Chevy friend who disliked the movie because the Challenger wasn't actually destroyed at the end. It was a 67 Camaro that went up in a ball of flames.

I didn't realize it was such a long garage so at 1:15 thought someone had stolen it. Once I saw the name in the title I instantly thought of what in my opinion is one of the best road movie ever made, Vanishing Point. I still remember watching it when I was twelve and it ignited my love of muscle cars.

All the years of hard work and your love for muscle cars. Great editing George. Really enjoyed seeing two beautifully restored vintage Mopars crossing the bridge side by side. That's classic. The whole video was amazing start to finish. In previous videos l do love those close ups near the tail pipe and close the road action shots. Gives that all round muscle car driving feel. Yes Nick muscle cars do live on through our difficult times. Lol. The name of the street in front of shop is it called " Nick's 440 speedway " yet. LoL. All the best to the boys. Cheers, Alberta.

Nick.....during the early 70s, I worked for a hemi and wedge blueprinting shop, building cars for the dragstrip and "serious" street racers. One of my friends owned a '70 Cuda AAR and we traded cars for a day. (my '56 Belair) I don't think I left him much rubber on the tires. Worked on many a Challenger...your car and your friend's are great examples of the best of both models. After all the driving on the surface streets, glad to see you finally got it into 4th gear on the highway. Like the Vanishing Point reference...stay away from bulldozers. Enjoyed the video. Great memories.

Just need to spot a street sign. Mind you, it looks like you crossed the new Champlain Bridge, so it could be on the south shore. Well, I spotted a sign for the Newstar Motel, that’s in Saint Leonard. Right on Lacordaire. 😂 you can run, but you can’t hide Nick!! Then on 40 east… past the old Mayrand’s….heading for the 25 north. Ha! You’re almost there.

I like how you check the mirrors several times before changing lanes. The people in a lot of videos don't do that.

Those mirrors are tiny. My brother has a Left hand drive challenger in Australia and it’s a bit nerve racking checking the the mirrors.

I sure do as well .... owned a 71 Charger RT 440 mag then 70 RoadRunner 383 both with pistol grip shifters and that is thee only way I’ll drive them . Hurst shifters don’t even equal the satisfaction of Mopar pistol shifters.

*NICK!* My friend, you should have worn a white shirt and the vest like Kowalski, man! :-) It's so great to see the Kowalski out and about again - wonderful stuff. I want to *thank you AGAIN* for taking the time to chat with me the other day on the phone, my friend. That was totally unexpected and VERY gracious of you! You made my week - and yes, the Porterfield shoes have been ordered! I hope your dental pain is over, I really do... Hey *Eugene Castles* - Nick tells me it's YOU to thank for the referral to Porterfield, so THANK YOU as well my friend! I've also managed to round up all the brake hardware for all 4 corners of Fred the GTX in USA-made parts, but that wasn't easy at all - it's almost impossible these days, sadly. *GEORGE!* Dude, your graphics are only matched by your parked car dodging skills, sir. :-) Hey Everyone - get over to Patreon and help support the channel and George's efforts! Y'all be safe out there, -Ed on the Ridge
