Welcome to DC.com!!  :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

You & I were the same age/year when buying our first Charger. I got my '68 at that time, still have it.
Pretty cool to say you still have your first car.  :yesnod:

Stunning combo.  :drool5:
Looks like it's getting some nice metal work. Will you be updating progress in this thread?

Thanks everyone for the welcome!

To answer some of the questions...

In 86 the car was far from perfect.  I knew when I bought it  it needed quarters  But at 16 you don't care.  The front inner fenders were not in great condition either.  But the car was complete and completely original.  Then after i bought it it never saw the Pittsburgh salt...The problem was that it saw it for the first 17 years  :rotz:  Then it sat in the gravel driveway while I was in college...that is pretty much what did the rear end on...you know, window leakage and a leaky cover!  :brickwall:  once I had my own place I started to tear it down...then I met my wife...and life goes on.  fast forward to 2013...my dad who helped me buy it had a couple of heart attacks and my wife and I decided that I needed to get it done before he is not able to enjoy it with me...so here we are...a true lifelong dream!

Yes the quarters are AMD along with all the new metal.  I felt it was the best chance of it all fitting together and yes they fit very well.  the toughest part is fitting the lower corners and getting the correct gaps.

I grew up in a dirt racing family and everyone always talked about wishing they had their first car.  I was lucky enough for mine to be a 69 Charger so I hung onto it...

What is everyone's thoughts?  should I continue to post updates to this post or create new one for the progress?

Or delete them from this one.  That way space isn't used twice for the same photos. (a crime I'm guilty of too btw)  ;)
