      So excited to see this coming together. I'm following the thread from the UK where these cars were really only seen in the movies - a classic Mustang is a rare spot, don't think I've ever even seen a Charger in the metal, but I love it!

      Thanks for following along! 2nd GEN chargers are not quite as rare here in the colonies ;-) but I don’t often see more than 1 at car show or cruise in if any.

      From what I found, the 68 and 69 sales were close to 100,000 per year. Yet, it's still rare to see one at anything other than a Mopar meet. I used a 1977 Dodge crewcab to tow my top fuel car. It has about the same dash layout as the charger. I liked that best of all things in the truck.

      Pat, I respect your patience more than your skills. I tend to be a wild man once I start a project.

      So the entire car is finally painted just need to 800g block sand the quarter panels and shoot two more coats of clear as I have done with all the panels. Then I get to move into the next stage, color sanding and polishing all of the panels, fun stuff “Not!”

      Where's the little sanding elves when you need them? I'm sure someone somewhere has an easier way but I don't know about it. Hope your arms don't fall off.

      I’m going to see if I can sweet talk my wife into coming over and helping with the wet sanding, wish me luck ;-)
      Thanks

      Pat, if your wife has listened to you describe how important the finish work is on a project, I believe her helping will be bringing you food and drink on occasion. Do you think 20 hours of sanding will do it?
