    New Interior Old body
    « on: October 17, 2013 - 10:51:33 AM »
    Has anyone installed a newer car interior into their Older E body? I found one article about a guy in Az who has a 73 Challenger and installed a 2006 Charger interior and drive train in his car. Am lookin for others who have done this as well. I have a 2004 Hemi motor and 545RFE installed in my 74 Cuda now. Please let me know. Thanks

    Saw at a car show last year a guy put a 68 or 69 (can't recall which) Charger body over an 09 (I think) Charger. Engine compartment, interior, chassis were all new and body was old. This car was insanely done. He did an amazing job.

    I saw west coast customs do the same thing.  But if u just want the newer seats in ur car, u will have to cut the floor so that the seat sits level, they are a little too wide, so u have to make some room with the floor

    Just did a quick look, I'm sure there are picks if the actual build since they did an entire episode on it.  But here is a pic

    The 68 charger is actually a 09 SRT8 charger they cut into a skateboard then dropped the 68 charger body onto it.
    This beauty here, is a 70 cuda with new chally seats and a 6.1 swap, pretty damn cool
