Chargergirl's Charger Restoration Begins

ziploc freezer bags (thicker and stronger than regular ziploc bags) and a sharpie are your best friends at this point, digital pics won't hurt when you try to put it back together in 17 years.......

sorry, 6 months.........

Been doing that with everything we've pulled off so far. Ran out of bags and will be getting a couple boxes more for the new stuff coming off. Tons of sharpies...love them...fine points...fat points for boxes. Everything is stored and ready to roll except for the parts that have to be found...will get there when we really know what we need. Stalled for a week...company...so no time but back at it next week!

Have fun, always like to see another girl charger fan planning to work on her car.

Really it is ok to fall asleep on the creeper, just watch and not get your hair caught in the wheels......been there done that.

Looks like a great start! I thought I had taken enough pictures as I took mine apart, wish I had taken more now that it is going back together.

Husband just raised brows cause he knows about that long hair deal...383Wing...Mopurr...I definitely will  be keeping hair back...didn't when I had a Total Gym and it took me a 1/2 hour to untangle from that! Couldn't leave to get scissors...it was bad! Got the Charger up on jack stands and will grab a couple pics of that now that company is gone.

[chargergirl]

Checked out what turns on...good day!

[chargergirl]

lights work, interior lights work from passenger side...

be careful of the white wire in the dash...................

[XS29L9B2]

congratulation and good luke for your restauration.

[chargergirl]

ok...what's with the white wire?

[mauve66]

only hurts when the battery is attached, powers the dash lights from the power pack behind the glove box

[chargergirl]

ahh ok...that makes sense...since the battery is attached right now! (occasionally) Learning about this car stuff from the tires up. Thanks!

[chargergirl]

Looking forward to many many pictures 

I agree

  looks a good /intresting project  CG   whats the plan stock type resto /color combination  or ....??

Going with the original color which is DARK almost black blue! The same for the carpet with white seats. So we rolled her out of the garage for a bath. Have a ton of pics of the engine bay without the engine, of course, but lots with where stuff goes. If you need them I will send them via email...just im me since there are quite a few. Other than that here goes with BATH DAY!

[chargergirl]

More stuff...I think it's great that we can scrape the over-spray from a red car...who knows who did it...but the glass is looking great after that nonsense is off of there! AND I'm baggin' everything!

[chargergirl]

Final shots from today!

[71ChallengeHer]

Your making progress. 

[mauve66]

and so the torture begins..............

[chargergirl]

Slow going with many interruptions...ugh!

[XS29L9B2]

so nice good work

[200MPH]

you are off to a great start !

[chargergirl]

Thanks! Got all the paint off the windows and looks like there are only a few scratches on the side windows from going up and down. One scratch on the front from wipers. Back window is sweet. May I be blessed when trying to remove them for blasting...nervous about that...big time!
