Triple black 69 R/T SE is home,it was real.....

[69 OUR/TEA]

 Hey gang,here is the triple black charger R/T SE that was on e-bay this week,turned out to be as real as they come.There have  always been thoughts running thru my head about changing my B5 R/T white top white stripe to triple black,but never did,and have always  responded to threads about someone asking "what color to paint my charger?", would reply "triple black".Every time I am at Carlisle,or other mopar events and see a 3x black charger,makes me want to go home and break out the sandpaper.Well after today I do not have to run that thought thru my head anymore,as I picked up a very solid ,loaded triple black 69 R/T SE,still wearing its CA black plate.Options such as: air cond,power windows,six way seat,rear defogger,tic-toc tach,AM/FM,power disc brakes,buddy seat,3spd wipers,rocker moldings,luggage rack,stripe delete,and pass side mirror.Very solid car,with the only rust issue being the trunk floor lower pan area( water must have been sitting in there as it is scaly and has some small holes),and the drivers rear 1/4 ,and about a six inch patch will be needed just in front of the valance corner,but done low enough that it will not be seen when trunk is open.Everything else is about as rust free as they come.The only other weird thing that I will have to fix,and cannot beleive someone did this!!!,they grafted in,I think AMC,smooth door handles that I will have remove,patch and put back to original.Interior needs headliner,carpet,front door panels,seat upolstry.Dash is mint,as all the upper door cushions also.Engine compartment and underneath are also beautiful and rust free.Even the e-brake and reg brakes all work fine.The car came with all the A/C stuff ,alot of brand new parts,and matching #'s tranny(no motor though).A couple friends went with me today to help out ,one was board member RT/SE who was also excited because he has a triple black R/T SE 4spd dana stripe delete car,and is amazed that there will be 2 of these 3x9 R/T SE's  less than 2 miles from each other.Here are some pics of the car and the adventure to go get it....

That thing is GORGEOUS!

[TripleBlackGator]

Real nice find but then I'm a bit biased.    Those door handles are what I spied first. I have never seen such a thing done to an otherwise relatively stock car. It surely took some time and talent but of all things to customize that would be last on my list.  What are your plans? Hopefully a stock restoration.

That thing is in my top 5 of cars I would LOVE to own. 69 Chargers are my favorite year overall - LOVE the grille and taillights.

I miss my 70 R/T S/E - Limelight green w/black trim.

Awesome! That thing really looks to be in good shape. Those door handles look like A$$ for sure but the rest of it sure is clean.

What are your plans for it?

[Just 6T9 CHGR]

Paul, really great news to hear you got it!  I will officially be changing ownership names in the registry!!  Really great find

Any chance you found the BS as of yet?   Looks like hood pins were added as well as a few other custom emblems etc...

PS----check your PM as well....

Congrats, i want a Trippelblack 69 RT/SE Charger to

[1969chargerrtse]

Wow, that car is awesome.  I have never been a Triple black Charger guy, but after seeing those pictures I can understand why you are.  Unbelievable amount of options.  Can't remember the last time I saw a passenger side mirror?  So happy for you, I'm sure it will end up a museum piece after you're done with it.  What a rare find, and people keep trashing ebay?  Thanks for all the pictures, can't wait to come up see it.  Looks great!

Congrats Paul!

Thanks alot guys,without a doubt,all original,and don't have to debate the color this time!!!!!!.I was blown away when I saw the door handles .It came with 2 door skin areas around the handle and 2 new door handles.And the placing of more R/T emblems  .Thank God he did'nt hack up the interior,and the very $$$$$$ AM/FM is still in place.To boot,the taillight cover is mint and in place,tailights are real nice,even the chrome bezel on them,and to my suprise the jack was all in place.Can't tell by the pics,but the rims,tires,caps and lugs are also brand new,tires still have the stickers on them.Needless to say,when I looked at this car earlier this week,when the garage door opened I pretty much knew I would be buying,but would not be at ease until it was on my trailor and I was back on the ferry.Thanks again guys

Love this picture

As for the door handles, not a big deal, it could have had Lambo doors!!!

That floor board is about as rust free and solid as you are ever going to find, very nice Charger.
