My 71 R/T still under construction

[71green go]

  I have been a member for years but never had luck uploading photos...I hope this works and IF it does I will upload the start of my resto....motor is in machine shop now getting built....hopefully back in a couple of weeks!....
been a long time resto....survived a Divorce, a new House reno and other toys I bought........no way I would sell it, its funny how a car can become attached to ya..
I pulled it out of the garage today, uncovered it and washed it!.......then added decals and waxed it........All because I went to a car show today and was jealous of all the driving cars...I will have my chance to!
I bought this car while searching for a 68 Charger.........couldnt pass on it as it was so darn solid, well except for the cowl section...I will post that nightmare later

I have to agree. I think it's the best color MOPAR ever had. Just looks awesome. Funny, I too was looking for a '68 when I found my '71. Great car, looking forward to more pics...

Thanks for posting over here 71green go. I don't hit the 71-74 site, so I am glad you posted here. Amazing job!!! Love the car. Hope the engine work goes as quickly as you hope and you can be driving it soon. 

[71green go]

I have the Mid Winter blues.......I am slowly working on my car......new bumpers, hideaways............and my engine is finally almost done........have to paint pulley's , valve covers, and valve train.........
Rad went to get recored today.....getting 3/4" cores done instead of 1/2" cores the factory had....supposed to increase flow allot!

NICE...keep up the good work 

[71charger]

stupid question but whats the difference between the 440 and the 440 magnum?? just a name or what?

[rt green]

looks great. love the slots on the front. hope you have some for the back. they just scream mean. stockers just dont look right to me. 295\50r15 bfg's with 8 or 10 inch deep slots polished up would be right stuff.

[RIDELIKEHELL]

Man thats nice! I love that combo! My pick if I had a 71

[nelson_audet]
