!!!ATTENTION!!!
If you haven't read this before, don't read the first few pages and reply, things have changed for the better and we want it to stay that way!!!!
Read the last few pages before you post or just this first post. DO NOT JUMP TO CONCLUSIONS. and the original question has been answered. I can't upload pictures, if you want to see my car click the link under my posts.
Thanks :2thumbs:


Pictures are here: http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewPicture&friendID=384484152&albumId=889212

I'm 16 years old male, I got my licence in October 08.
My first car I bought myself, a month before my birthday, is a 1969 dodge charger R/T SE 440 with a 727 torqueflite pushing 500hp with SURE GRIP......
I'm rebuilding her (what needs to be put on) with the help of a Chevy mechanic (don't rip hes free, great, and a Friend).
As some people will agree the short time I've been on here has changed my way of thinking ALOT towards cars and driving, I'm here for help (which I need alot of), advice (that too), anybody that wants to watch a rebuild, to make some freinds, have some laughs and hopefully bring these amazing muscle cars into my generation!
So please, any help you want to give or advice you think may help post it, I'll appreciate it and no-one can be mad or anything!


She was yellow with a green vinyl top and green interior, I'm going that route but I'm not sure about the vinyl top or not.

READ THIS!!!!!!!
I was told 500hp by the old owner, not a sales pitch, when i bought her i was told 375hp, stock, but 3 months later in Miami when i got the title signed, no money changed hands at all, i was told 500hp no reason to lie, no reason to even bring it up unless it was true, so please don't question it, at least not to me
THANKS!!

Damn you lucky guy!! 16, and you have a freakin REAL 1969 R/T SE Charger!!!! :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o
I would say you have some pretty freakin awesome parents!!

Sublime/Sixpack

Yes, that sounds like quite the car.  Do you have photos?

P.S. I hope you change your attitude about not doing the speed limit.  I hate it when people loose their loved ones to careless drivers.

They're raggin' on you because the Mopar term is Suregrip.

Posi is a Chevy term, we still like our Sure Grips but it's all semantics I suppose.  How about some pics?  What about the engine combo, where did you come up with the 500 hp figure?

So that engine is pushing 500 hp? I remember seeing an overhaul job like that once before. I think someone named Sherwin Williams overhauled the other one I saw but it looked exactly like it.  ;)

The car definitley has potential, Just don't get out there and kill yourself in it. I've seen it happen way too many times in my lifetime when someone young like yourself gets handed that much power for a first real car.

I have nothing to compare to a 500 horsepower 440, I'm sorry. I don't know why I need the title to your car, but I do have a picture of your engine, from the link that you posted a few posts ago. In those pictures at least, the engine is sitting there uncomplete and looks far from fresh. I know how to get high horsepower, but when you say that you're "not sure what they did" and the engine looks like it had a rattlecan job over factory orange paint, it's entirely possible that you're mistaken.

Once again, I'm only going by the picture you provided.
