That Charger is beautiful and inspiring!   :2thumbs:  So, you've had a run-in with Frankie-boy too, or are you referring to the thread I started about him?   :icon_smile_big:

that is removing it from the car. Refinishing it, and reinstalling it. The grill didn't have any breaks or cracks. I cleaned it, repainted it, (lots of work masking it) new emblems, all new surround trim from Gunslinger, and a 100% complete and correct grill mounting hardware kit from om @ R/T Specialties. I will get some better pics when the car is able to be moved outside. The black paint is so nice it makes it hard to take good pics because like a mirror, it reflects everything. Got the windshield trim, rear window trim, new tail lights from Mike at BE&A installed and they are absolutlely perfect! All the tail trim is installed and that all came from Peter at PG CLASSICS/ (Mikes, partner/supplier). Still have all the side glass, mirrors, door handles, rail, door, and trunk gaskets to install.  On the interior the carpet, console, the front and rear seats, kick panels, door panels, armrests, seat belts, and window/door handles need to be installed.The parts need list is shrinking. I still need a trunk matt, some new 14 tires, and maybe a few other misc doo dads. Hoping to have it finished by the first week of June or sooner if possible. Nex year it gets a set of magnum 500's and a matte black tail stripe. this year it will wear a set of 14" rubber and a set of nos hubcaps. This is my last full resto and my keeper. If I get bored than maybe I will start the long and slowprocess of collecting the parts needed to build a good old 426 Hemi. That would be cheaper than building another car that's for sure. A good start and inspiration would be the two HEMI door emblems...
