WHITE AND RED 69

So my charger was off the road for the last month due to a gauge cluster restoration (which started as just a speedometer repair  :brickwall: ) and I just had to get some photos of it since its been a while. It felt good to have it back on the road after seeing it sit for the last month.

WHITE AND RED 69

Here are some shots of the gauges. It started that I was just going to repair the speedometer and then it turned into changing everything. I'm happy with the way they turned out but it took way too long thanks to crappy repair companies and me adding new things. The first guy that was going to repair the speedometer took a week only to tell me that he couldnt do the repair so that was a big waste of time. So I sent my speedo to Shannon at redline gauge works and they did a great job. I highly recommend Redline, they are easy to deal with and have a quick turn around time. I wish I would have sent my whole cluster to them but I wanted to do some things myself. My tach came from charger specialties and I changed everything to white face, added LEDs, and a new dash bezel from BEA (pricey but well worth it).

That has got to be the sexiest looking 69 charger on the road. It looks awesome in white!  :drool5:

I am planning on putting Intro "Twisted Vista" so nice choice in rims  :2thumbs:

Wasn't sure about the size, but now I have something to go by

Mate those gauges look sensational with the silver surrounds.
Did you get them like that or did you paint them?
Gotta love a '69

I got a new bezel from BEAparts.com. I tried painting my old one but it just didnt look right, the new one looks so much better.

My seats are the corbeau gts II. I got them from a local shop that ordered them for me. Much more comfortable than the old stock ones.

I'd like to possibly use a pic of that for my next Charger calendar with your permission but do you have it in jpeg format? Unless there's a way I don't know of to save a bitmap file that's not microscopic.

Very nice car. :2thumbs: I had trouble last time getting the body lines of the white cars to show up very well in the reprint calendar pics but maybe this one will work.

That's a fine lookin' '69.  Nice job.

Back in '84 I bought my first Mopar, a '68 Coronet R/T.  It was all white.  There was a '69 Charger in town like yours with burgundy interior, member Brad owned it.  I really, really liked that car so I bought my '68 & added a red Bee stripe.

Ah, here it is, I hot linked it.

Love the car.  It is one of the sweetest Chargers I have seen in a long time, you did a great job.  I will admit, I was hoping to see red interior in it, but the black looks great too.  :2thumbs:
