Yes they are! I knew it was unusual when I bought it. I have had 16 2nd gen chargers and this is the most SOLID one I have ever had. It still has ALL of the original trunk floors,extentions,floor pans,rockers etc with NO HOLES what so ever!!!! He got a SOLID ass Charger and I got a damn nice 71 plus, I made a friend! :cheers:

Ordering a lot of parts :yesnod: and rebuilding the engine. It's a 383 out of a 69 so that was cool :2thumbs:. I did notice she took a good hit in the driver rear quarter as it had a partial panel replaced. but for now the front end is off sanded and painted all the bumper brackets and grill hardware. I did take a pic of the 69 grill in her just to look at and  :icon_smile_big:. LOL!

How is it that even in a rough state like that, the back of that car with those wide tires on it just looks so tough?

I had this same problem with my 14x10 slots that caused me to find some 15's. You will find no tire for them except for the Mickey Thomson Indy Profile which is a bias ply tire. I would rather find some 15" wheels than run the bias plys, so I did that. If you're cool with bias ply, get those tires, as they are your only option.

Nice today so I finally got to work on her a little bit. It's amazing what you find when you start the body work :yesnod:. The driver side quarter  has had half panel replaced and a dent in the front fender was filled with half inch bondo :rotz:. I'm just glad the weather is FINALLY starting to get nice so I can spend more time working on her :icon_smile_big:.

I actually have two sets of 14x10's. Took me awhile to find regular dodge bolt pattern, you can find unilugs more often.

You already have the sot mags and yellow exterior, why don't you go DMCL clone? :icon_smile_big: :icon_smile_big:

That was the plan. Always wanted one, but my finance bought me a set of decals and wheels to make a General. Don't get me wrong I like the DOH as I have since I was a kid. I have a lot of stuff from the DOH era. So my DMCL will have to wait. I already have all the parts I need to make one so I figure what the heck, at least  it's getting restored :2thumbs:
