hi my name is waylon and i bought a 71 charger about 2 years ago. here are some pics



according to the fender tag it came with a 383 but the guy i bought it from put in a 400. i just got a 440 with 53k orignal miles on it for a build i want to do with it. hope to find some good knowledge on here to point me in the right direction.

it seems to be so far it ran when i bought it but i got it home via car dolley, tried to start it but it acted like i had no power so i hookedup the jumper cables tried again and smoke from under the dash so i need to chase down some wiring, im thinking maybe a ground shook loose or something. im pretty excited about building this car tho. the guy sanded it down and primered it then let it sit outside threw the winter so ill be redong that as well. and the last thing he did that ercks me was put in a b&m shifter on the foor and routed the shift cable threw the exhuast mainfld and melted the cable in half.

welcome from another new guy. Be sure to take pictures of your restore so we can see the process. I still learn stuff daily just from looking at other folks restore projects.

you already made a very good first impression by posting pics.  Out of all the sites I go to, this is the one where you will hear it if you don't post pics...and it's a big reason why this site is so great.

thanks for all the welcomes i have more pics i just have to figure out which pc they were put on lol im kinda leaning heavy towards drag with this project and im trying to find a place that sells good aluminum heads so far iv found edelbrocks for around $780-$1400 but not sure of any other companies that make alum heads for the 440. im really enjoying this site cant wait to tear into cathrine (ya the wife and i named her), guess its the car guy in me but i gotta name em.
