1970 Charger Build - aka "Punishment"

[Exc-71]

I would like to put my 2 cents in here, and may I suggest you go with sub-frame connectors. That will add some strengthening that you might need with over 600 horses on tap.

Thanks we are definitely doing a lot of stiffening on the frame.

Getting started on suspension and interior soon. Had to order gauges now, here is the design (from ampcustomshop.com)

I know im new member and my post dont hold much water but i like your build and the most important thing is that it turns out how you want it to.  Everybody doesn't want a regular resto. Im not a know it all or trying to convince you to do what you dont want, but you could reinforce the c and a pilar like they do in subarus. And if you dont want chrome, chrome can be anodized. But it looks like you're gonna paint them, which is good too. Its not like the finished product is going to look like that purple dart with the ford escort grille and light or whatever its got

Seriously cool  Best of luck with the build  Will be waching with great interest

The 11 charger lights might not be wide enough to match the rear contours. But it would look just as good.

Also, I grew up in Grafton, good to see some home boys reppin' some sick iron, good job!!!

Man it looks killer but too bad about the gas cap

[bakerhillpins]

Some seriously good looking metal work there.   

I am also sad to see the iconic gas cap removed.

Thats one fine looking automobile!      Great work going into it and those gauges are sweet. What size are those wheels? And where is the new gas cap going to be?

[b5blue]

I'm digging that color, Good choice!

too bad about the gas cap

I am also sad to see the iconic gas cap removed. 

Yep. Pretty much. Not to be a bitch or anything, but I can tell my tastes are getting better as they get more stock-biased.

[verticalflight]

Thanks!

Wheels are 18" and 19", with some pretty solid deep dish action in the rear

Gas cap is now in the trunk.

[Polygon]

all I want to say is....

WOW!

[DPL]

You can do anything you want to a charger but the gas cap STAYS! 

OK, if its in the trunk, thats fine too

Wicked build - you guys are serious dudes.  I'd love to know if you bring this in under $150k

Good Lord.  Please let us know whatever issues of whichever musclecar magazines you and your car are going to appear in so I can buy some copies!...

Pretty cool. I'd like to see more of the front bumper area.
