 Going over to Michigan tonight after work to pick up 2 doors from Montana for my car..$500 usd for the pair..they are rust free! Apparently this fella has one of the infamous 1968 BENGAL CHARGER r/t's that he is in the midst of restoring. I'm bringing my camera so I'll snap some photos for you guys/gals to look at. It's about an hour drive for me once I cross the Bridge here in Sarnia Ontario Canada...sounds like this guy has a great wealth of knowledge & sources for my resto part needs..he has a whack of NOS stuff he's collected over the years. He is also selling a 1970 Coronet that is a factory 4 speed & Air car! Seems rare to me..... asking $12,000???

Funny the drivers door is my factory color ;) The passenger needs a minor dent along the bottom fixed but otherwise they are great shape....great for $500/pair imo...

Well he had so much stuff piled on top of the car that it wasn't worth a pic or 2...It's primered & needs alot of assembly which could be years away now as the kids have to go to school :'( Sorry leon....

Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.  Especially if they have access to the internet.

So my doors are all ready to paint but the had some hidden treasures to get them right...nothing major.  The doors have been lined up,the trunk is primed & my front clip ready to go on. Next he plans to cut out the floor & put the new AMD one in & install my XV sub-frame connectors. I also am getting the innner fender support braces installed before the fenders go on...duuh  :icon_smile_blackeye: Getting a wee bit closer..

BTW thats my old a$$ end etc in the last 2 pics :laugh:
