Not sure if this is the right place? (most forums Im on have an introduction area)


Everyone calls me B. This is my 69 Charger. Its a 440/727 stock cruiser. Im not gonna lie, Ive logged over 1k miles in the last 3 months since I purchased it. I LOVE it. I am told I am the 3rd owner of this car, previous owner restored it in 82'. Everything is functional except for the clock in the dash.

Does anybody know where I can get the little lens cover for the small lights on the side of the automatic center consol that come on when the door opens?? I accidentally broke one  :'(

Here are some pics. Enjoy  :cheers:






This is my rough break down of the fender tag. Not sure what alot of it is?

‎440 - 727 - am/fm - sim wood steering wheel - light package - basic group - power assist brakes - consol w/buckets - bucket seats - delux seat belt - O/SLHrem race mir - 3spd var wipers - hd/fen mount trn sig - rf drip rail moldings - wide sill mold - belt and hood mold - tach - music master radio

You passed the entrance exam by posting pics right out of the gate, so A+ on that.

The bad news is you get an F+ on your username.

In school terms it wouldn't even be considered an F. Its non existent and therefore a straight up 0 which for my college is considered a W.
What the W stands for? Not a clue

No, there's no such thing. ;) it's just a running joke of mine. It's something we "award" each other with in my family, usually for a job that appears adequate on the surface but was not really done right.
