After weeks of bad weather I got out yesterday and took some pics of my Challenger. Some of you will know I came across all 3 S&M race kits from the 90's so decided to build bike to match with all of them. This was the last bike I needed to go with the 98/99 race kit. As always this bike came together with the help of many people so thanks to all of you who helped me track down bits for it.
