Newbie with a 68 charger RT

[Wollfen]

Hi all, i am just letting you know i am here now as a new member and i own three 1968 dodge chargers all needing restoration, i actually bought the Kinston cars advertised in the Cars for Sale section. Once i get this site worked out Ill post some pics too, cheers.

Welcome to the site and obviously you already have us figured out on the begging for pics things so no sense saying much beyond hello.

welcome to the best charger site known to mankind 

[Wollfen]

And here is the last car, not sure if my first post is working or not, if not i will have to retype all of it out, fingers crossed it works.

Grrrrr, drivin me nuts, gonna try uploading one more time....

[Wollfen]

Heh thanks guys, well i got a few pics here for ya, all three cars are basically complete, the third red one is a factory 4spd 318 but has no interior and is very rusty, the blue one is a factory 383 car and has a pretty good body but no fender tags so i am gonna do that one up my way, as for the RT, she hasn't seen the road since 1977 and is very original if a bit sad, it will need a few little metal patches here and there plus a trunk floor, the door trim is good but will need carpet, headliner and seat covers. The original 440 blew up early in its life and for some reason received a warranty 383? Strange, but hey i got a 1968 spare Chrysler 300 440 sitting here so I'm gonna fit that one, umm, i got a lot of new sheetmetal for the car too most of which it doesn't need, I will use some of it on the blue car, probably sell the rear quarters. When I think of more I will let you know, oh and i will be selling the complete 4spd setup, it has a trunion drive on the back, so its a 1964/65 model. Check the pics and see what ya think!

Looks great. What is your background in cars ?

[Wollfen]

i started wrenching on cars in my teens about 30 years ago and i tackled everything to do with fixing and restoring cars over the years so now i can basically handle anything on a car from bodywork to mechanical to electrical, just keep those damned computers away from me I have even worked in a warbird restoration facility for a couple of years and learnt a few skills and tricks regarding metal formwork and such. It all comes in handy when you are working on a budget.

3 68's? what kind of newbie are you? you must be as knowledgeable as the designers by now 

[Wollfen]

Heh its been a big learning curve when it comes to what is unique to chargers. Its only two now because the red charger fell on its sword for the good of the other two 

[Baldwinvette77]

oh god  i could never cut up such a cool car, if it cant be restored, at very least it can be morphed into a 4 wheel terror to society
