new members car...

[LargerCharger383]

I was a member at the old site, but I'm new around here, so I'll introduce my car.  I spent the last couple years making it what it is today.  here's what I've done: Paint job(took an entire summer and part of a winter), rebuilt front end/steering components, electric choke, got a powerlock suregrip with 4.10s put in the 8 3/4 742 rearend, am currently re-wiring most of the car, new front seats (came with grey cloth??? bucket seats out of a mini-van or something...) chrome engine dressup, new heater hoses/valve, preparing to put on headers and new exhaust before summer gets here, put in a headliner...that was a pain..., new tires, put in those small chrome blinkers on top of the fenders and had to wire them because the factory ones were non-existent,  brake lines/pads, new front grilles, new rear bumper, new rear valence, considering an alluminum radiator, edelbrock carb/manifold, removed and Flitz'd ALL the chrome, etc.  Here are some pics, you be the judge of which are "before" and which are "now" haha.  Give me some feedback or suggestions!

1st one has the kinda paintjob of the 71 charger from the original gone in 60,the 2nd charger you have looks like one mean ride, both are sweet cars dude

[LargerCharger383]

[THE CHARGER PUNK]

no shit i coulda sworn it was a 71-2 in the 1`st pic, now i see difference

Nice ride!  One question though, in the first pic it looks to have a set of hideaways on it.  Why switch it to a standard grille?  And you cant say to go back to stock because thats a 72 grille.

They were badly damaged, and not wired to anything, but the motor still worked, so I took them off (in several pieces) sold them for $115, bought new ones, and some extra cash to go towards other things on the car.
