Yes it is fun to see if coming together.  I have had the car since 1988 (in our family since it was new) and have wanted to completely overhaul the whole car for decades.  Decided to finally either step up and spend the cash to redo it or get it to someone who would. 

I will keep the pictures coming.

Here is a picture of the 440 block just back from the machine shop with the heads and intake.  Block is going to be painted a medium dark cast color and the heads and intake left aluminum color.  Black mopar performance valve covers and an polished Holly 440.

I should really proof read my messages before posting.  It is a Holley 770, not 440 of course......

I hate when i see a picture and it has a nice wheel but it doesnt show the wheel propperly... so many times i search for wheels but all u get is some slight angle of a wheel and think WHATS THAT! LOOKS AWESOME I WANT SOME but u cant tell what it is or whether it looks good side on or not...

ARGH

Are they Classic 5 spoke ET wheels?

Please say yes... im after them and I hope they look bad ass like how this seems to be looking... can you get a side on shot PLEASE so i can see car + wheels propperly!

Cars turning out really really nice

I must say, Im glad i decided to replace the 1970 Challenger with a 1968 Charger.
