Rust is my middle name

[Stacked440]

you sure rust isnt your first name as well?   Thats pretty rough but it looks like you got a really nice donor roof to go on it.  Good luck on it!

Knew I had problem spot with the driver side frame rail and this is what I found.

Your're a brave man to handle this project. I think it would be awesome though to see one more mopar saved from the grave. Good Luck and hope to see it back on the road one day.

Yikes!!!!!

What is that Cr@p inside the rail?  Something a mouse left or what 

[dougs bs23]

Looks as if someone or something tried to reinforce your frame rail with fiberglass   However, structurally I dont believe thats going to work   But somehow I think you can put it all together

You guy's are funny,that was the mopar mouse hilton.But on a good note this morning I picked up the special interest car paper and as usual I went right to the mopar section.There wasn't much for my cars in there then I looked at the year section and there was a 72 challenger listed for parts.Called the guy that owned it at 9 a.m. and talked to him about it.told him I want that car for parts for my challenger and sealed the deal.He said he would trailer it here today if I wanted,so at 3 p.m. it arrived.Huge score for the clown because after he talked to me this morning he said that he had 12 more calls about the car.I will post some photos as soon as the rain stops.Oh ya its a 72 h-code-----the clown

A little for moparclown, a little for E-bay, a little more for moparclown .....

[moparclown]

the truth is that I'm not much for selling stuff as far as e-bay goes,this car was strictly bought for parts for my challenger.

FYI on mice nests:  I found four in my 'Cuda.       One under the dash, one in a seat back, one under the rear seat, and one in a rear fram rail.  Still need to repalce the headliner, however ...

Fortunately no dead bodies.  One paring knife in the vent duct, however.

MC......How did you strip the roof?

[moparclown]

A razor blade and then sand paper(orange one)I didnt strip the parts car it came that way,and the yellow one is just ground down at the seam.------the clown

Hey Clown, if you want to tackle a B-body next, I have a very rusty, but complete and numbers matching 383 68 Road Runner sitting behind my garage, that runs and sounds beautiful (Like all Mopars)
