I'm way behind on updates.  I've got quite a bit done to the car but I've been neglecting the pictures.  Here's a little bit since the last update:

Doors, trunk lid and other misc pieces prepped and ready for painting when their time comes.  The header panel is still under construction.


20 years of parts collecting/hoarding.  Every Carlisle I bought what was a good deal at the time, knowing it would go on the car eventually:


If you look close you can see where it was pieced together:


The top never sat right.  Overall it was a little too high, and one side was always higher than the other:


Here is the box channel frame connectors I had made years ago.  They were better than an unsupported car, but they helped ruin the floorboards:


Out with the old connectors, ready for the US Cartool ones:


Yes I own a 1972 Dodge Challenger Convertible T/A S/E with a 440 Six Pak. Can it get any more wrong?

I like the notch cut in to the wheel house instead of the cap. There appears to be a lot of thought and work someone put into the car.
