My 74 Challenger restoration.
« on: March 22, 2015 - 05:57:43 PM »
Well, I think that with the help of son Jim, that maybe, I can upload some pics of the never ending battle with my old Challenger. There's some earlier ones, but I can't find then yet. I'll post a link to the Photobucket album for those who care to look.  :cheers:

Thx Dave, much appreciated! Jeez, kinda made my own self queezy, looking at all the sheet metal I/we have put in this thing.  :eek4: I figure I'll have to join the CAW up here, because I'm not really repairing this car- I'm building it. After having said and done all that- I should've replaced the rear footwell panel because it's damn thin and trying to weld the SFC to it, is like trying to nail a 2x4 to a cardboard box. As all can see, I've actually been there and done that, so if there's something I could offer advice on regarding repairing these things, feel free to ask and I'll do my damndest to oblige. Thx for looking! Ian
