After your Charger is done......what will you get?

[69bronzeT5]

After you finish your Charger or current Mopar project, what will you do next? Are you one of those guys who finishes a car, sells it and starts over or will you keep your finished car and start another project? If so, what do you guys plan on getting next? Once I finish my Charger, I'll do my Coronet, then I'd like to get either a '71 Roadrunner or '71 Charger.

[SFRT]

over the next 2 years I will be building a 'almost period correct' altered wheelbase 65 coronet. I say almost cuase it will have to pass tech inspection. I have the car, and am starting to gather parts.

anyine have 65 coronet parts? I need some trim and grill pieces.

[moparstuart]

 I have enough projects to last me the rest of my life , Now i need to hit the lottery to afford the restorations and store them .
 
       

[Manfred318]

Finish the Charger?!?...HAHAHA Is it ever really done?? Seriously tho, Ive got the Dart to work on and Im also gonna fix up my old 'Yota truck one of these days. After those I donno. Id like to have another '66 Belvedere to work on.

[kokxville]

First i'm going to fix my 66plymouth belvedere,and then i'm going to save money for a 69 coronet or superbee.

[rp23g7]

After my Coronet is done, i'm getting a Charger, if i can find one, preferably a 68

[moparguy01]

I may or may not have plenty of projects to keep me busy for the next 30 years. But that depends on if my wife is reading or listening.  sshhhhhh

[lisiecki1]

once the charger is done I'd like to find a 340 demon for my wife.

or a pro street style convertible hemi dart for me 

[bull]

A motorcycle. And I'll forget about restoring another car for a long, long time.

[Marck]

I'd really like to get a '70 roadrunner one day, but for now I have plenty to deal with fixing up my charger..

[PocketThunder]

Yep, one of these.   
Or any old truck from the early 1930's.

[Rolling_Thunder]

Well as soon as the Charger is completed I'll be getting my 69 Road Runner wrapped up - then do a quicky resto on my 66 Satellite rag top...     then I'll be gone for about 6 years with no time to drive them   

[Darkman]

Once my Charger is finished, I will spend the rest of my spare time cruising with the wife and kids! There is only 1 car that I will rebuild, and that is the Charger. The wife wants a mustang for herself, but it won't be a resto job, we will get one of the new mustangs!

[Ghoste]

Another Charger.  Or maybe a 69 Super Bee?  I really don't know.  (there is always that 67 WO clone I've wanted to do too... )

[68X426]

I didn't finish the Charger but I sure finished it off.

Which led to my Road Runner.

Next would be a 64 Polara.

[69bronzeT5]

I didn't finish the Charger but I sure finished it off.

[Cooter]

MY next one kinda fell in my lap....a 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T .."Kowalski Special", but right now, I've got my hands full restoring customers cars as well as the kids '66 Belvy....

[Daytona R/T SE]

" I'll get "  rid of all of this other junk I've been hoarding for the last few decades,

and just have my Daytona clone and the Harley....

[Mr.Woolery]

I think the next project car after my '71 Charger is on the road will be a late 60's Volvo P1800 coupe.

[Silver R/T]

That's an easy one. Get another Mopar!

[tan top]

 would love to get a C500 to restore ,   one day !  need the dough first  & they will prolly all be restored by then !! & crazy prices  

[khodne]

I ended up with a '67 GTX a few years ago.  I'm having the body work done now.  It's my father-son project someday when he's ready.  He's seven next month so it'll be a few years.  He was two in the first picture of us taking the car apart.

[elacruze]

  up Old Dixie Highway, Blue Ridge, Rte. 66, probably up to Seattle and over the top back to Florida. '11 Power Tour, Carlisle, Indy maybe.

Then this.

[moparmoynihan]

I have to get a 1970 Super Bee, 4 speed pistol grip and a bench seat. I would love 3 carbs under the hood, but it really doesn't matter. I can say for sure, it will be rust free and can tell you that. I have had enough rust repair for a lifetime with my 1969 Charger! Johnny 

[METROID]

Has to be a Mopar , I figure why not a diffrent: year, make, model, and body (not to mention it has always been my second dream car  )

1970 'Cuda with any options!  





In the next year or two I would really like to pick one up.

[Finn]

Something that gets miles per gallon instead of gallons per mile would be nice.
I wouldn't say no to a Mitsubishi Evolution 9 if I found one for a steal...
If I could get 15 mpg out of the charger it would most likely be a bike.
Harley nightster....mmm

[WHITE AND RED 69]

A 68 charger or a 70 challenger but it will be a while, there is still too much stuff to get for my 69. 

[mikesbbody]

After my 72 is "finished" (are they ever really finished?) I would like a 71 RT, Super Bee even if it was a clone then again, something else might come along.

[Magnumcharger]

After....my NEW Challenger is paid off....
I need to finish restoring my Charger R/T. And I need to finish my Deora replica. And finish my 1968 resto-mod Barracuda Fastback. And detail my 1979 Chrysler 300...
Then, I want a Ford Model A, which I know of one sitting in a barn not far from my house.
Then, I want to re-purchase my old 1970 Challenger R/T that I searched for and found last summer.
And I wouldn't mind buying another Sweptline Dodge pickup, preferably a Dude in a high-impact color.

And...I need to build a bigger garage!!

[1969chargerrtse]

The only thing I really need to do is to start and finish restoring the trunk.  After that I have no real plans other than to keep it, and enjoy it.  I do think about picking up an old Honda Gold Wing.  I miss riding a bike.  I've had a bike since I was 16 and that's a long long time ago.

[jaak]

I want an A-body..... '71-'72 Demon or Duster first choice. Would really like anything Plymouth...never had a plymouth muscle car yet, always Dodges.

Jason

[Belgium R/T -68]

When the charger is ready to be driven (will never be finished) I will just enjoy it at occasions for the rest of my life and do
some improvements each winter. the next project is the -70 challenger convertible which will be a correct hemi clone.
If I ever can afford to finish that one I would like to have and restore a 1970 coronet.

[twodko]

 I am sooo anxious to get our car back and reassembled by mid summer. Unlike our younger years of camping, hiking etc my sweet wife is experiencing an escalating degree of mobility impairment. Every car show, car event, cruise-in, Peggy Sue or American Graffiti remembrance that comes along we will attend. You never know what hand you'll be dealt in life so we're going to get every tire smoking minute of pleasure from our dream car as possible! 

Tom

That was frackin' gloomy.....sorry.

[Mefirst]

a life....

My

[Back N Black]

I'm thinking a Cobra kit car.......   

[Khyron]

1st, the Charger will never be done :-) second, I already have another project. My 50 Chevy 2 door. Right now im doing the math and measuments to turn it into a tilt front end

[BlueSS454]

I always seem to acquire another car to do while I'm in the middle of restoring one.  When I was doing my 70 SS Chevelle, I bought a 69 Malibu.  After I finished the 70, I tore the Malibu apart and then found & bought my Charger.  2 weeks after I tore into the Charger, I found a 70 Chevelle convertible and bought that which is my next project car.  I've never sold a car I've restored.  I've kept all 3.  I have bought & sold cars in between the ones I've restored though.  I'm really not content unless I'm restoring something.  I think I need to start getting people to pay me to restore their cars because I'm running out of room to keep mine.

[68chargerAG]

With all of the stuff I would still like to do to my 68, I may not ever need another project.  At some point I would still like to play around with twin turbos on my 383.   

[jb666]

Done? Finished? What's that?

What will I do?? Save a HELL of a lot of money on prescriptions and visits to my shrink. 

nah, we're actually doing up a Mustang for the wife.. Gotta keep them happy 

[Tilar]

After your Charger is done......what will you get?

Probably a hangover from celebrating. 

[FlatbackFanatic]

I'd like to build a "Two Lane Blacktop" type of 55 Chev.

[RD]

a ramcharger, but that may happen before i get my charger done

[C500]

There won't be another after this, but if there was, it would be a 69 Superbee. Love the b-bodies!

[moparstuart]

a ramcharger, but that may happen before i get my charger done

todd has your rear door/gate 

[RD]

a ramcharger, but that may happen before i get my charger done

todd has your rear door/gate 

lol, dont i know it.

[paironines]

My 69 R/T is very close to being finished just A/C lines and things.  After that I have my rough high school 69 Charger that I've always wanted to do. I also have a solid 68 Charger that I drive but don't really want or have plans to finish so that might make way for a 70 Bee that I've had my eye on. The owner doesn't want to sell but you never know.

[six-tee-nine]

A car is never fully done, there's alway something that needs to be done or redone.....

However when I run out of work with the Charger I'll probably get me something to have fun with off the road.
I always loved Unimogs since they're about the most capable of road vehicle on the planet......so I might get me one of these.

[Khyron]

 


little chevy love.....


just a little :-P

[chargergirl]

Since the Charger is going to be a cruiser she won't change much once she's done. One of the reasons you haven't seen updates is there is none...well I got parts for my birthday and Christmas...engine, trans, both brand new, torque converter, disc brake set up for the front...and I just got for girlfriend day a 323, 8 3/4 chunk. Oh yeah and a brand new Holley electric choke carb., black fin valve covers and air cleaner...electronic ignition...the list goes on...know what? the car looks like just like it did. Waiting on Belvedere to get done...she needs an alignment and then test and tune at the spot I got for Mark at Christmas...right on the fence! The pic of the '65 is not up to date but the most recent I have and the second is the car that started Mark's love of everything Mopar!

[THE STIG]

I like to have a 3rd gen Charger, or an A or E bod w/ a small block or if my 70 dosent drive me to complete insanity then I'm sure this http://www.factoryfive.com/gtmhome.html would, but I would really like one of those.

[motorcitydak]

I plan on keeping my Charger once it is done and getting a 70-74 (except 71) Cuda to build pretty much the same way, just in a smaller and lighter package

[jobbless]

well, when the charger is done, and the 71 demon is done, and the 30 model a finally gets the 354 hemi in her finished.  i would like to get a 61 chrysler, 61 plymouth or a 60 dodge of the 2 door ht variety.  and a 70 coronet or super bee and a 65 chrysler 300

[greenpigs]

77 or 78 TA and if a Mopar a 72 Dart to build for strip\street fun.

[ZSmithersCharges]

A tombstoneand a Camaro*flame suit on*.  The Charger will never be finished.

[Darkman]

A mustang for the wife. It will be either a 69 fastback or, if I can convince her, the 2005 version done as "Eleanor"

[ChgrSteve67]

Now that my Charger is done I have to start saving to buy a new daily driver.
And save up for my trip to the 45th birthday of the Dodge Charger show.

[dodgecharger-fan]

I have enough projects to last me the rest of my life , Now i need to hit the lottery to afford the restorations and store them .
 
       

DITTO!!!

I'm going to pick up my next project this Saturday.... a 68 that's pretty much going right in to (rented) storage. Hadn't planned on it, but it fell in to my lap. Couldn't say no. (I'll post details after I get it home.)
Later this summer, I expect to pick up my first project (the 69 money pit) after it gets some paint on it.
When that's done.....in 10 years at my pace, I hope to have won the lottery and moved out of town to a nice piece of land where I can build a shop big enough to house my insanity... and my 71 New Yorker (which thankfully isn't really a project but just needs a few things to make it better than it is.)

[oldrock]

Will be a long time before my son is finished restoring his 72 charger since he is paying for the restoration himself. I am just about finished restoring the 69 S code mustang coupe now. Not sure what i will restore next although I always have to have something I can work on. For me working on restoring a car is great stress relief.





I would not mind restoring an old 1970-72 GTO, a 69-70 mach 1, or even a 67-69 camaro. And of course if I found a good deal, I'd love to do another mopar. A challenger or cuda would be fun.

[ZSmithersCharges]

I'd like to build a "Two Lane Blacktop" type of 55 Chev.

Great movie That girl is a skank though lol...

[THE STIG]

I just found this on my local CL http://indianapolis.craigslist.org/cto/1728289419.html and schming on how con my wife into letting me get it.
