Have you seen the 70 Charger site ?

My last Charger was a 70

Nothing wrong with the factory headlight door motor setup
Sounds like you might just need to rebuild it because there are some white plastic gears inside that the teeth break off some times

Thanks!

Re exhaust.  I have the rectangular tips that came with the larger engines, but my 383 4 bbl came with slightly turned down exhaust.  After some time, I have decided I like the turned down exhaust better because they are more understated.  

re headlight doors, and at the risk of drawing ire across the board, I use zip tie loops.  I don't usually need the doors open because it is a daytime driver and when I need the doors up, I just loop these things to hold them open.  

PS, I'd like to see the full car in all its color glory when done.   

Awesome! Thank you!!

TTG, congrats on landing your Charger! I'm not a big fan of pink either, but I am glad you are restoring it back to the original color. Do you know what year is was sprayed red? Looks like it was in pretty decent shape when you got it.

Looking forward to your updates & pics!

Have you removed your headlight motor?

My older brother said it was painted red around 1980...understandably why a teenager wouldn't dare drive a pink car...but in my late 40's that really doesn't matter anymore : )

No kidding, I sure as hell wouldn't have sported a pink car in my teens!  Now that I'm an old fart, I could probably get away with it.
