I started with this  http://www.dodgecharger.com/forum/index.php/topic,21251.0.html my 1970 Challenger RT/SE, FY1, 383, auto, and here are some pics to see taken after recent the blasting phase













It will need some metal work.  That's next.

That looks really good besides the vinyl top damage, but even that isn't too bad. Good luck with the project!

It looks like you caught most of that rust in the nick of time. The back end of that car sure looks clean. :thumbs:

Have you finished your '68 Charger? Got any current pics, if so? :D

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

The Charger is 95% done.  I got the serpentne system in and looks awesome.  Got it from Billet Specialties.  The new aluminum radiator is from Griffin.




The interior is also complete.  Just Dashes restored the interior trim.







I am going to replace the steering wheel but I had the gage cluster completly restored


Matt Delaney supplied me with the 472" cubic inch 400" stroker.



The grill was also completely restored



The back tail panel still needs to be painted black



The last big decision is trying to decide which wheels and tires to go with?

Man, that Billet Specialties serpentine system looks sweet! Well, so does the rest of the car, for that matter. :icon_smile_big:

Thanks for sharing the pics. :)
