    My 70 Challenger R/T SE to be restored!
    « on: February 28, 2006 - 06:25:44 PM »
     :ylsuper: I posted a while ago for the first time, and have been spending a lot of time on my Green Challenger getting it done for the spring... pictures coming.  Here are some pictures from 2005 of my  1970 SE.... restoration of this one will begin this summer.  The Green Challenger has been driven for years, and is getting upgraded with a nice 360, and aftermarket front end parts etc, I can't wait till im done with it im getting anxious to get her back on the road!

    Nice SE project. This should give you something to do for a couple months. Good luck and keep us posted on your progress.

    Is that an original FC7 purple JS29N car? I notice the fender tag might be missing?

    Would be awesome to see pictures!

    an N car wouldnt have a turquoise motor.....

    but still.......

    Youre going from a big block (see picture of purple engine bay) to a small block 360 ?

    Most people looking at the car would think you're nuts to resto it. However, all of us on this site can see past what you have now and envision what it will look like. Keep us posted with pics on the progress.

    Looks to be a great project. What's wrong with keeping the big block in there and staying purple though :screwy:
