That first one was my first parts car that I bought for $75, 10 years ago! I STILL find little parts on that car that other fellow Mopar builders want! The red one looks like my other red parts car, but is an SE instead of just a Charger! I need to get one of my resto cars on the road in the next couple months, and finish my 73 SE ASAP! At that point, I may restore the driver car also! And eventually move all these parts cars to other guys who may need them! In the mean time, I try to help fellow CL'ers, and fellow Mopar guys with 3rd gen parts that I can "part" with!

That's quite a collection there.

If you're selling items I am looking for a working 3 speed wiper switch.  The one on my Bee bit the dust recently.

I should have that switch. I will check. You are welcome to make me an offer for it.

I say keep everything  :lol: you can never have enough cars or parts and even if you don't need it all someone will (like 71383bee needing a wiper switch) we all help each other out in this hobby which is one of the things IMO that make us Mopar Guys  :cheers:

I've always liked your 500... The flat black with all the chrome trim is awesome.  :cheers:

tricky lugnuts

Agreed...

Love the setup, Chgr 500...

That flat black looks great with the chrome, and who can't love the hideaways, the bulge hood with the R/T insert, and those tips popping out of the rear valance.

Sweet ride!!!  :cheers:

Damn, that's a nice 73 Rallye  :2thumbs: Paul I know you can run a 295/50/15 on a 3rd Gen on a 10 inch rim with the right amount of B.S

Paul put 295's on my car (his car at the time) and it looked great-as soon as I burn some more rubber off these 275's im going back to the 295s

Here is a pic with the 295's on:

8"+15" steel wheels on all four with 5" backspace (ramcharger wheels)...295/50/15 rear and 235/60/15 front No rubbing issues anywhere. About 1 1/2" to the spring clearence and no issue with the rear fenderwell.  I also run the R/T rear spring pack with 6 & 7 leafs per side..quite stiff on the rear.

man i lucked out with those. I traded a guy on here- an air cleaner for 2 of them. He had them sitting on his work bench for 2 years and he wanted an air cleaner I had so we traded straight up- I love them. My car took first place this past saturday at a car show and that was one of the top compliments it received.

Very easy...
Go to Napa and order Part No. 4412A

they bolt right in.  The only trick is you will need to make some pig tails to wire them up.  I used a small piece of 10 Ga with a male blade on one end and a ring terminal on the other.
