 HI !! Just found out about this board on Moparts.Com. My current project is a 1970 SE R/T U-code Challenger. Im doing a rottisserie restoration on the car. Everything is done and ready to reassemble,except the body,and that is close to getting paint. Can't wait!! Anyways Hello again from a fellow mopar lover from the Mid West.

I agree, the F8 does look good with the white bee stripe for sure. My fathers 69 Coronet R/T shared that combo  :thumbsup:
My now departed R/T S/E was also F8. Just happy to see that yours will live a long life

Welcome to the board 1FS!  That is going to be a great looking car!  I love the BB stripes on a dark color like that.  There are quite a few R/T SE's on the board...you'll fit right in! 

Enjoy!
