Hello,

I am new here and I just purchased my first classic, a 72 Dodge Charger SE. I want to know where can I buy parts for it. Mechanically its good but the changes I want to make are cosmetic, for example:

Door Mirrors
Door Handles
chrome trimming
Etc....

Here is a pic of the car..Any advise will help..





Thanks again

I v used 521 restorations for those pieces you are looking for they make nice stuff and have real good prices.
http://www.521restorations.com/index.pl?page=home

Here's a picture of my car,cant see it so well from this shot but the plate on the front is a flag and theirs one under the hood with a general lee shot. If you look closely at the doors you can see an ghost image door numbers that will be done on the top as well when i pull the vinyl top.

I have found various places to be quite good, depending on what you are looking for.
Got my mirrors at Vans https://vansauto.com/?s=Mirror&pa_body-type=&post_type=product
They have door handles as well https://vansauto.com/product-category/exterior-door-handles/
And depends on what trim you need.  That looks like a 72 SE, nice car.
Mega has always been VERY good and shipping is quite fair

That is a sweet ride you have there. I wish my wife was into old Mopars. I finally got her out of a Ford and into a Jeep...so you know...baby steps  :rofl:

Thanks!! Wheels are not to bad, we can live with it for a while...Those will most likely go after we do all the other changes that are bugging us..First thing to change is the vinyl, previous owner did a terrible job and that is the one thing that is really bothering us now, but overall we got a great deal for it.

Welcome and nice 72 you have there, looks sharp.

There's plenty of info and advice and a few laughs on here as well, the info really helped for repairs and stuff on my old bomb...

Maybe put up a few interior and motor shots when you get a chance.
