We seem to have a lot of nice asses, but the front of these cars is not so bad either.

Charger in 2nd gen form was just a well designed car. Trouble with the grille is the more prettier it is, the less aerodynamic it is.
sunken grilles will always be better looking than say a 68 Coronet grille up front. Ironic that the reason they [500 models in 69] are even popular today was because they were unpopular back in the day like those hideous creations the Daytona and Superbird.

Do that treatment on ANYTHING today, and it's hideous....do it cause Mopar did it back in 1969-70, and it's cool.

By carefully compositing all second-gens together I have come up with the best compromise.

Nice Jaak  :lol: , personally if i was in your position i would have kept it a 68 since you already seem to have a nice 69 back there, but i guess you can never have too much of a good thing  :coolgleamA:
