The 72 Charger is finally done

[glenh2nd]

Well, after 3 years of pain staking labor and a major hunt for parts we finally got her finished. I made a little video of before and after shots for your enjoyment. I would of taken more when the vehicle first arrived in our shop but it was only suppose to be an engine rebuild not complete rebuild. One thing led to another and in the end we pretty much did a ground up restore. There are a few things on this car that I wouldn't have done but we built it to the owner's specifications.

FYI I would like to thank all of you who sold me parts and those who tried! And to the guy who sold me a moldy and rusty set of seatbelts that were suppose to be in MINT condition for $200, Karma is a bich.

Nice car!  What size rims and tires are those?

[Brock Samson]

Inspiring! I see some tweaks there,.. I'm wondering if the Black and White interior was avail. back in the day or was that an upgrade?..
Whatever,.. it looks fantastic! 

[glenh2nd]

You know, I am not sure. The owner had it brought to a tire and wheel shop and picked them out himself so I wasn't involved. The next time it comes in for service I will write it down.

The interior was the brain child between the owner and the service manager and there was nothing like it in 1972.

I think that's a friggin beautiful Charger.

[glenh2nd]

I'm just the parts guy so most of the credit goes to the mechanics, body and upholstery shop. I did put a lot of time in making sure I got all the right parts for the dash and everything looked like new.

No, it was a 440 4 barrel. Most every part that was available from Mopar Performance we used including the six-pack.

Awesome...Plum Crazy with Black roof, now that I have a pic maybe I can convince the wife to stay with the vinyl top!

What color is that? It doesn't look at all like Plum Crazy on my screen --- shows up much much lighter and totally different hue and saturation etc....?
