My Superbird clone build

[MathewD]

I recently started a thread called new member which is me introducing myself. So i thought i would dedication a topic just to my build. The base of my build is a roadrunner that i will convert in to a superbird. When i bought the car it came with the nose, hood extension,Headlight buckets and bins full of other parts. The car was sand blaster and primered before i bought it. Also the car didn't even roll either so i knew i was in for a lot. Since this is my first time building a car i would greatly appreciate any tips and your input on it. I will post a picture of how i got the car and another of the work i have done this weekend. If i make any mistakes feel more that free to correct me.

Did you buy that car from a guy named Moe in the St. Louis area ?

If so, I looked at that car at the Gateway swapmeet a few months ago.

It looked like a good starting point for a project.

I did buy it from around the St Louis area.

It's got to be the same car.  

The angle iron front suspension was a dead giveaway.  

Good deal.  

I'm glad someone took this project on.

I stared at it for quite awhile...  

But...

With my Daytona clone I'm (not) currently working on...

And the other six Chargers waiting their turn...

I really didn't need another one...

But...

I sure thought about it.

Welcome, Matthew!  It does look like a fair bit of work, but the amount of useful helpful advise you're going to get from everyone here will ease the burden.   

Good luck, and be sure to keep us posted!

Welcome and will be following.  I got one I'm doing too and agree with the feelings. I look at Hemi Runners thread just now.  That's a lot of good work you've done.
