     hi my name is brian, ive been hiding out in this site for quit some time and finally decided to post some pics for my five year resto so far. i started it when i was 20 years old and i still dont have it running yet. i have no realy experience working on cars until i took on this project. i was lucky at young age to befriend a mechanic at a local garage who owns a 70 hemi charger and was willing to help me w my car.   i'll try to post some pic of whatever i can come up with.   all comments are welcome.



random pic of it in the car port




shaved the door handles, trunk lid enblems, back plate, molded tail light bezels in, molded the quarters to the deck panel and smoothed out where the quarters meet the doors.


primer






new fenders from AMD









engins compartment shots.  smoothed out fire wall. closed off all the holes for the wires, bulk head, battery tray ect.






6 pack carbs








i'll post some pics of the car painted and assembly once i put them on my computer.

     the suspension is from PST its there superstock set up. i would love to go another direction with the car now but money is a big issue.  i love XV Motorsports set up.    the motor is .030 over w a 590 lift cam w plenty of extras  :icon_smile_big:  the tranny is a reverse manual valve body w an 8 inch stall built by ATI.  im really hopeing for a hemi 5 spd in the future.
