@ rolling_Thunder...Not sure but I will ask Josh next time I talk to him.

what did you do with the old firewall section that was cut out - I need it!
I've been trying to sell one for a year or more... ;)

Shipping might suck - but I could have delivered it to Spring Fling.

Sarcasm detector, that's a real good invention.

Damn - wish I would have known that.    Seems my luck never changes    :rofl:

 :-\ I dont think there is much more to removed.

Did I see a rear upper crossmember and a rad support ? I think your amd order might have been bigger than mine :P

How does the passengers 1/4 look. Mine was full of imperfections and the body lines were not crisp. Was not dented or damaged during shipping, as you can see it was in the stamp. The drivers side is surprisingly better.

I think my AMD bill is about 5500 so far.

Good progress! Question: Why did you make the frame connectors run through the floor?  Was that so you could get a fully boxed beam in there?  :cheers:

Finn.. From my understanding Josh wanted to use the box steal as the sub frame connectors because it would add much more strength and be more rigid. When all finshed between the lizard skin that will be applied and use of the dyno mat the floor will be built up and not as noticeable.

Floor looks good,  :2thumbs: nice progress, I like the beefy sub-frame connectors too  :drool5: ...

Thanks guys for the response! There has been a lot of behind the scenes work going on and it is good to see some visual progress now. @ charger fan 4ever I 100% agree with a statement you made about your build. If I knew back then what I do now I would more than likely would have chose a 69 to build. It has been trying at times to find some of the parts.. But in the end I think it will be well worth it.  :2thumbs:

I will have some updated pics soon but I wanted give a shout out and a big thanks to Brian (1HotDaytona) for selling me a pair of 70 fenders for my charger. After getting mine blasted and revealing the ugly truth my fenders could be saved but needed a ton of work. The pair Brian sold me were in good shape and cleaned up pretty nice! Im sure most here who have a 70 know how hard it is to find a pair that are in decent shape.

Memphis Mopar

These are the fenders I bought from 1 HotDaytona. got them back from the blaster.

starting to come back together!
