69 4spd console chager

nappy4612 · October 18, 2006, 12:40:05 AM

This is a all matching numbers car with build sheet and all the right tags. It was a copper color but I'am caongine th color to a benz silver. The motor is a 383 bored .06 over and thats about it. The rest is just a basic charger the original owner ordered it with nothing but a console and bucket seats. I plan to up grade alot of things like suspension and a few other small things.

I'm guessing it's a T5 color? Isn't Troy's (68hemi) C500 a T5 color?

Brock Samson · October 18, 2006, 11:20:29 AM

Charger_Fan · November 21, 2006, 01:46:15 PM

Looks like you're doing away with the side marker lights front & rear?

nappy4612 · November 21, 2006, 09:21:17 PM

Yes sir. I thick if I lose those markers the car will look more stream line. Hopefully.

nappy4612 · November 24, 2006, 04:25:45 PM

More pics.

69_500 · November 25, 2006, 12:22:01 PM

Looks like the work is progressing along very nicely.

What are your final intentions for the car?

A street brawler? Or a cruiser? Stealth like car?

nappy4612 · November 25, 2006, 03:44:01 PM

Mainly a crusier but it will be a street pownder when I need it to be. The motor is punched 60 over and a nice cam with around 520 hp. Which will huck up[ once I put in a four link in back. I have plans to put on a 3 inch exhaust out the side like the !970 AAR cuda. which should sound mean as hell when I get on it.

69_500 · November 25, 2006, 03:55:51 PM

Always glad to see another Charger restored. Also always glad to hear of one that is going to be driven and enjoyed.

nappy4612 · November 25, 2006, 04:07:34 PM

Yes sir I had one when I was 16 I bought at a juck yard. The car was trashed so I bought a a second one which was unsalvageable.
took the roof of it and the back window panel and then parted it out. When I turned 17 the car was finaly finished but not painted. Loved that car drove it every day to school, to work and home. I got a job at a body shop once the owner show my work on the car because I wanted to paint it he asked who did the body on it I told him I did and got a job. Never painted it because I joined the Marine Corps and sold it ever since I have beening going crazy. And now I bought another one which will never leave my side. Ad will drive it once a week if possible.

69Charger500 · November 29, 2006, 02:30:04 PM

T5...

nappy4612 · December 20, 2006, 08:46:49 PM

nappy4612 · December 20, 2006, 09:08:27 PM

at the end of today heres how it looks now.

PocketThunder · December 21, 2006, 11:29:35 AM

Wow nappy you have a lot of patience and do good body work. It take a lot of patience to wet sand several times like that. Keep up the good work and lets see some silver before the years end..?..?? maybe?

nappy4612 · December 21, 2006, 09:14:23 PM

the car is done with the sanding on the outside. But now comes the door jams and a few more things before paint. It should be partly painted before the new year.

nappy4612 · December 21, 2006, 10:11:42 PM

Heres is todays pic all the outsisde sanded it is a bad pic but you can see the tail.

SeattleCharger · December 21, 2006, 10:25:31 PM

Hi, I admire that you have the ability to restore like that. congrats on the cool BB 4 spd original #s, tags, etc.

I am curious, maybe you could say how you are doing the interior? Are you going to try and buy all the side panels, where?

dads_69 · December 21, 2006, 11:08:52 PM

I noticed the front side markers are filled in or are they fiberglass fenders w/no side marker cut out?
Good luck w/the paint job.
Mark

nappy4612 · December 22, 2006, 09:27:20 PM

Its the original fender with the marker filled in the is a pic on the first page of the work done on the fender.

nappy4612 · December 28, 2006, 10:47:55 PM

Here are pics of my first Charger when I was 16. which I worked my butt off to get it and then to make it run.

nappy4612 · December 28, 2006, 10:53:06 PM

a couple more

SeattleCharger · December 29, 2006, 02:31:12 AM

Thanks for sharing the inspiring pics, you made your car look A LOT better. I like the stripes, even though it is grey primer paint, looks a lot better than if the whole car was grey primer with no stripes,
new bumper?

Brock Samson · December 29, 2006, 12:51:19 PM

what are your plans for the Charger?..
thanks for the older pics!

nappy4612 · December 29, 2006, 09:05:33 PM

thanks guys. The bumper on that car is the same one you see on the car I was in the picture in. I just buffed the hell out of it and the rust came off. And it was just surface rust.

Here are pictures of the new cars hood and trunk painted.

nappy4612 · January 02, 2007, 09:40:16 PM

painted car and R/T stripe. tomorrow clear coat.

nappy4612 · January 03, 2007, 09:03:18 PM

paint is done time to put it back together

Charger-Bodie · January 03, 2007, 10:45:58 PM

Charger Aficionado · January 04, 2007, 04:13:50 AM

It looks really different w/o the side-markers... I won't decide if I like it or not until it's back together.... MORE PIX!!! (GREAT job so-far)!!!

PocketThunder · January 04, 2007, 11:08:56 AM

Damn that looks nice.

i think silver is the new black..

Charger_Fan · January 04, 2007, 12:41:49 PM

That looks really good!
If you don't mind me asking, how much are you into the bodyshop to get it that far?

The hood if you look close also has the lights holes shaved also.

nappy4612 · January 04, 2007, 10:37:35 PM

resq302 · January 05, 2007, 12:45:13 AM

It's not black its a bark Mercedes charcoal. Both of the colors came out of a Mercedes show room walk around. The silver is the same as I saw on a AMG 65. The charcoal came from a SUV.

nappy4612 · January 11, 2007, 10:08:10 PM

heres is a better look at the stripe. And the car as it gets put back together.

nappy4612 · January 12, 2007, 09:02:13 PM

The car with all its body panels on it.

nappy4612 · January 12, 2007, 09:03:59 PM

One more pic.

autodynamics · January 13, 2007, 02:05:13 AM

very very nice.........keep posting updates.. love the color.

resq302 · January 17, 2007, 03:44:24 PM

Damn....sure is puuuuurrrrrrttttttyyyy. Now that you have a closer look, the stripe does look charcoal. From a distance, the stripe looked like a satin black or a flat black. Either way it looks killer! Doing a great job. What color are you going to make the interior?

nappy4612 · January 17, 2007, 11:16:55 PM

The interior will be put back to stock and the original black which I really like.
