Gentlemen,

  Recently found your site. I purchased a 70 R/T from my brother about 6 months ago and wanted to let everyone know what it looks like upon arrival. I'll need a lot of assistance since I am a "B" body person and somewhat unfamiliar with "E" bodies.  I have the fender tag but no build sheet.  It has some unusal options that I have noticed, ie: 4spd w/air and 6 way manual seat.  Since receiving it I have been able collect most of the parts required for assembly but I also own a 71 Superbee that is currently in the body shop and that has priority.

Nice ride. Is it all there? Drivetrain etc?  :dontknow: :???:

Lots of options alright.  :D But, if your looking for a profit you'll get twice as much with the original numbers matching drivetraing.

Hope it does because it seems to be a rare car.  :thumbs:

  Welcome to the forum FY1443433. That's ambitious looking to say the least. Are you going to finish your Bee first and then concentrate on the Challenger? When it gets out of the body shop, post some pics of the SuperBee as well  :thumbs: :thumbs:

Welcome to the board FY1!!  Looks like quite a project!  What are you plans for it...going back all original, or having some fun with it?

Trying to go back to orginal as possible but my pockets are only so deep.  Need to find a decent 6 way manual seat, I have the brackets but not the assembly.  I have the orginal four speed and all of the sheet metal.  Trying to think what to do for an engine.  Could drop a hemi in it, but I hate clones.  I have 440 that I could slid in it but waiting for my 71 Superbee to come home.

Looks like a great car to do.  With all the options on it, you'll have a real winner.  I'd stick the 440 in it, a 6-pak if your pockets allow.

Keep us up to date on your Superbee too.
