Looks awesome!! Your work is top notch! Just wondering if you restored your grille? If so what color argent silver did you use? It looks like the closest match to oem I've seen.

    oh that looks so good , my fav car ,
Yes I like green 

[Charger-Bodie]

Thanks!

Unfortunately the progress will be a little slow for a little while. I have a guy come in to do the top and headliner, so I'm at his mercy and schedule until then. There's still some stuff to do though,don't get me wrong. Like all the stainless needs dings removed and polished. That's what I'm planning to do this weekend.

Brian, any chance of giving us some information on your process of doing this?

Sure. I bought a kit with the wheels and rouge from eastwood. The dings i do metal finishing. very carefully pick up the dings and "file" the spots with a sander( i use a DA sander but you could do by hand with something flat) going progressively finer starting with nothing courser than 220 grit. i finish with 1000 grit. The star polishing with the wheel on a bench grinder.

I will have to say, I have never been a fan of green on a charger.  After seeing this car.  It has definitely changed my viewpoint

Beautiful

Mine too!

[Charger-Bodie]

Thanks again guys!

Recieved the green vinyl top the other day. Thanks Mitch!!

Over the weekend i got the stainless all polished and installed the w/o moldings. Why do the rears need to be such a bitch!! 

I also got the tail stripe on.

It will fly along once the top and headliner are done.

[TUFCAT]

I asked him the same question...!!      Unfortunately he's booked for a while, you just have to get on the list.    I would love to have my Coronet done by Brian.  We talked on the phone a few times and he as a great guy and he even helped me with my insurance claim.
