I haven't been under a Charger in a month or two...  Don't remember if this LOOKS right... Something strikes me about it though...



Other than that car is HOLY. Says it's from Arizona, but looks like it's pounded the N.Y. Streets.

Unless its the angle of the pic it sure looks bent to me, even the rear spring shackles look bent and the spring is on a slight angle, good luck.

Yeah, cheap storage. :lol:

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

The rear spring hangers look to bent as well as the rear frame looks like it was bent...but it looks like the right side of that rear frame looks straight while the left looks crooked. It may just be an optical illusion though.

I can say with a fair amount of certainty that nothing is bent. It looks like any rear frame section of any Charger, and if anyones looks any different please post a picture! But with all the rust, I have to think you can find a far better starting point, as a decent frame rail is a fairly thin starting point for a restoration.

One thing that's missing from the picture is the stock shock cross member which is why it probably looks "different" from any other.
