Well folks, I am pleased to state that my 1969 Dodge Charger R/T SE is completed and road worthy.  I've put about 250 miles on it and it runs great.   :punkrocka:

As before, many thanks to the members of this site for your help and guidance - couldn't have done it without you.   :cheers:

That is one classy Charger!  Love the burn marks!

Wow, serious wow!

The paint is gorgeous, that reflection is perfect.  And look at that ground clearance, that's what makes these cars look so killer.

Thank you everyone!   :cheers:

I am so very pleased with the way it turned out and the way it drives.  Everything, well almost everything, fits and operates the way it is supposed to - hell even the cigar lighter works!   :apimp:

It passed the safety inspection with nothing to be corrected, alignment took some time but it drives straight and handles great at 80 mph and had the transmission rebuilt and it shifts very nicely.

Of course, as with all of these cars, there will always something to tweak.  Right now I am in "shakedown" mode and will make adjustments over the winter.

The final item on the list are the 1969 YOM (year of manufacture) plates that I am waiting to be returned from Kingston, ON for validation.  (sample shot of '69 Ontario plates attached) which will look great on the car)

Thanks again everyone, I really appreciated all the help over the years and was pleased I was able to offer up some assistance in return.

All the best!   :thumbs:
