ok lets see if this works here are some pictures of my latest charger project

how much do you charge to restore?
that can vary ALOT ! it depends largely on how far you want to go and how bad the car is

That looks cool, the black vinyl top always works. About what to charge for a resto... Every resto shop or pro paint shop around my town charges $75 an hour, $600 per day, $3000 a week. There's just no end to what you can spend. :RantExplode:
"Let me explain something to you, um i am not Mr. Lebowski, you're Mr. Lebowski. I'm the dude, so that's what you call me. That or his dudeness, or duder, or you know, el duderino if you're not into the whole brevity thing."

The car looks great!

I'm also a fan of the vinyl tops as I think they look great on the car and show folks one of the popular options that was availlable way back in the day.

Well done.

Hey 1Hot68,

You do fantastic work!!!!  What a great looking Charger.  I love the look of the car with the Firestone Wide Oval tire.   What size tires are they?   They look very good on the car.

Brian,
One long thread, but definitely worth the read after seeing the final results of a job very very well done!!  :2thumbs:
All I can say is... that is one SMOKIN' A$$ ride!!!!  :coolgleamA:
That's the best color combo I've ever seen!!!!

But all those pictures you took are terrible... when can you drive it out to California so I can see it better in person?!?!  :icon_smile_big:  :icon_smile_wink:

I have seen Brian's Charger in person and I have to say it is one of the best restifications I have ever seen. He and I both showed our Chargers at the Mopars On The Mississippi car show at Dubuque, Iowa last August and he took 1st. place honors in the stock 68-70 Dodge Charger class. He truly did a 1st. class job on this car. I think it is evident that he has a lot of pride in his car and the effort he put into it to bring it to it's present state. The number of pics he has posted on this site is a testiment to that. My congratulations to Brian on his outstanding acomplishment. Charger Steve (also from Iowa)

This car was sold many years ago to somebody in Wisconsin. I now am retired and living in Florida.
