Yep. They are already painted black.

The goal is to have it painted and back at my house by February .

Amazing. And that B7 is rich. Feel like we wanna stay w/ original B5 but will lay it over dark to inch a little into B7 territory.

So very strange to see this process with out a bunch of metal being cut out first. This is a super nice piece.

It's hard to believe that most people that I talk with when I am trying to sell a car, still don't believe there are rust free cars still out there. I have a shop full of project cars in the same shape or better than this one that I sold Brian. It helps now that we can send pictures so easily. Before the Internet, I used to send out a video to a prospective buyer. It still amazes me that people won't travel to pick up a car. I am certain that Brian is glad he made the trip to pick up this Charger.  I bet he will save 15 k in sheet metal and labor cost over a typical rust belt car.

Great color! Now all it needs is a white interior.

well it needs a few other things first,but thats the direction im leaning. either white or black. Most likely white though.

[Dino]

Can't go wrong with either really. White would look better imo but it'll look awesome either way.

Lol. I kinda cheated on some of it. I bought a restored cloister and faceplate set.

Buttons look great on the heater control. It does not look like you used the stickers on it. That 8 track player looks great too!

[Mytur Binsdirti]

Very nice.

We have that radio but sans the 8 Track. We wanna record our modern digital music to 8 Track for the car. Is that radio/8 Track aftermarket by any chance?

[fastmark]

SLOWLY? There is nothing slow about this restoration. You'll have this done before next spring. You have to admit that the $900 you spent on fuel would only buy one Chinese quarter panel and a floor pan. Dash looks good though. My vote is white on the interior if you don't do the original blue.
