    The original outside door handles and wiper motor were sent to Jules Daddio. Some before and after pics although they really don't do justice :)

     :droolingbounce: To me the ultimate challenger is the 440 RT/SE.  I grew up with a friend who had a jet black paint job and his car was set up to cruise smoothly at 150.  I rode in it back in the day and when he was doing 150 it rode like an LTD delux another friends parent car at 50.  I've been through the rebuilding of my challenger twice so I know how hard it is to wait for it to get finished.  On the other hand I envy you having that car.  Thanks for sharing the story of the rebuild and pictures.  :chatting:

    22 November the motor, trans, and front suspension were attached and set on it's new home. It's not much but you couldn't wash that silly grin off my face :biggrin:

    The frame connectors are mostly in as well, massaging required :)

    Finish cleaning the bottom end, final repairs if any, then the coatings.

    I spoke with Bill Petrow from Special T's earlier this week. Friendly, helpful, and remembered my asking him to add the black accenting to my taillight bezels as I dropped them off with him at this years Mopar Nationals. They are done and in his words "came out show quality". My wallet is happy because they came out "below estimate". I'll post pics as soon as they arrive.

    Russ,  Glad to see things coming together, man time flies I couldn't believe it's been 2 years already.

     In case you have not kept up with the +camber/strut bushing issue you may want to read up & trim the bushings before complete assembly
