    Well guys, I've been working on the Challenger got most of the interior gutted today. When I pulled the carpet I was expecting the worse but, this is what I found. I was so happy I had to share. :grinyes: :thumbsup:

    Yes that's a 71. I wasn't expecting it to be like that. I knew it was a solid car but, not that solid.

    The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realize it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

    Yeah, I got lucky on that part. Wasn't expecting it. I'll be rustproofing those with some Rust Bullet. More progress pics will follow. Just glad they looked decent.  :thumbsup:

    just curious...does the floor rust usually come from the topside i.e. leaking windows, heater cores etc.causing the carpet to stay wet
    or do they rust from the underside up? :dunno:

    Hope my floors look like that.  I'll be checking soon. So I can cut them out for my 4-speed conversion.
