Gutless Wonder - This 1981 Dodge Challenger Needs Help (Ignition, Carb, Brake Fixes And More)

I may never understand why the first video on this car did so well. It's not the classic Mopar we're accustomed to here - in fact, it's really not a Mopar at all. It's a classic Japanese sport coupe wearing an American muscle car badge. But people really loved seeing this thing - and so many commenters remembered these cars fondly. So today, I've decided to go a bit farther on my 1981 Dodge Challenger (which is really just a rebadged Mitsubishi Galant Lambda) and search for the escaped horsepower I noticed in the first video. At the same time, the horrible dragging brakes need to be dealt with, as well as what could be generously referred to as "bodywork." After all that, we'll go for a final test drive, and confirm what's really wrong with this car... spoiler alert, it smells.
