Since the lower radiator support was boxed in, the lower valance needed some attachment brackets fabbed up

The hood had several layers of paint to remove. There were some dents under the layers. The hood must have been slammed hard against the adjusters several times because the hood was dented in several areas.

The hood alignment was good except for the fit to the after market passenger side fender, which was a little too long at the forward inboard corner. The fender was cut at the leading edge, trimmed, re-arched, and welded back up.

So how do you keep your panels from flash rusting?

It is in dry building but it will still flash rust a little given enough time. It will go out to get media blasted soon and will get sealed in epoxy the next day.

If your still going with the V10 you might consider twin turbos. 505HP is really cool, but 700 is really cooler.
1972 Charger Topper Special, 360ci, 46RH OD trans, 8 3/4 sure grip with 3.91 gear, 14.93@92 mph.
1973 Charger Rallye, 4 speed, muscle rat. Whatever engine right now?

Just going with a 6.4L BGE hemi. 500hp is enough to enjoy
