The drivetrain looks amazing. I hope you use a double DV driveshaft from the DSS!

I don't like the taxi cab clusters so I bought the Dakota Digital gauges for 68-70 Charger. I rooted through my parts stash and picked out my nice Charger panel switches and cluster bezel. The bezel was redyed and came out pretty nice

The car looks incredible

Sitting on its own suspension! It will sit at least an inch lower all the way around.

Looks awesome! I really like how the cage disappears, double kick myself for not installing one.

Wiring and plumbing in progress...

[454bug]

Very nice project! Great color.

Finally received the driveshaft a couple days ago. I was a little late ordering it. The axle shafts I ordered in March arrived about 3 weeks after ordering so I assumed the driveshaft would take about that long but when I called with the driveshaft dimensions, DSS said they were 8-9 weeks out on driveshafts.

Radiator is in...



The stainless and chrome trim finally all came back from the powdercoater.

Dash frame assembly is coming together...

What's your plan with the bumpers ???
The same color of the body, chrome, black ???

I want to see you project finished, really good looking car with a lot of brain and not multi millionaire budget ...

Thanks! The bumpers are out for powdercoating right now. Not sure how I'll like the full look yet. I am looking at using some wrap as accents to break up the blacked out front grill and tail panel.

I'm really excited to drive this car.

Driveshaft and exhaust went in today...

[Mikey97D]

Beautiful!

How is your arm healing?

[wfo guy]

Looking good. The exhaust got close in a few places. Wiring, exhaust and underhood plumbing cause large spaces to disappear.

[Motown 454]

Wow nice work! The car looks great in that color.

Overall, my arm feels pretty good. I still can’t lift it above shoulder height but it’s strong below that height. I don’t think my range will get much better but I’m ok with that. Thanks for asking!

okay i had to go back and edit my post. Thank GOD you found that cancer. man saying things happen for areason is the understatement of the century. i too have some health issues, in 2018 i was placed under pallative care and given 18 months to live. im still not well but im better than i was.... Damn man that is badass. I have a 70 roadrunner that I'm fixing to start on. Your car looks great. I think I'm going to build a procharged trick flow headed 451 stroker backed up by a727 torque flight with a gearvendors overdrive. I'm normally not a fan of red cars but wow that bird is sharp a.f. in that color

Thanks! i do thank God every day. I'm beyond fortunate and so thankful. I wish you the very best on your health issues. If there's anything I can do, please let me know.


I got new bumpers from AMD and had them powder coated in satin black along with every other piece of stainless trim on the car





I didn't like the contrast of the orange foglight and black bumper so I had the orange lenses tinted and love the way they turned out

[andrewb70]

That's a great red!
