    Thanks everyone. I'll say, theres a few resto updated photo threads here in the last day or two. Good for buisness!  laughing


    74Chall: I've got 15x8" Cop rims ready to go on at anytime, but I will also buy some 15x8 Rallye rims. Both sets are 245/60/15
    My car had the same wheel set up before the resto and it so very well. Hell yeah I can't wait for the putting back together part, there are so many parts!!!!! Infact I'll post up the sheets of parts on another thread.  ack I want to see the engine next but my resto guys seem pretty convinced that my car should have the engine/trans etc in within the next few weeks, then it'll be interior work which will take a little while (conversion from blue to black) then just the normal after resto tunning and making sure everything runs true.  :D  ;D



    Thanks again everyone.  ;)  patriot



    15x8 cop rims!  banghead I've been looking for them for ever! Cop rims and dog dishes , the only way to fly! thumbs

    I think the only way anyone is going to see this car is by traveling to New Zealand.   :P   :P

    Rusty, is that on this board?  ???


    Thanks everyone for the kind words. Yip New Zealand will have another classic MoPar Muscle car to add to it's list opnce complete.

    I think there is roughly around 12-15 1970 Challengers is New Zealand now and I know one two of those are white, one has a R/T deal down the side and the other is a #'s matching 383 convertiable.  patriot 8) How many of those 15 #'s matching have no idea.  wave

    Thanks again everyone.....stay tuned for some more engine and progress photos.........

    Glad you are painting it black behind the grille like it's supposed to be.
    Don't forget to paint the cowl the same color.(1970 only)

    Yip, thats how they were done back then with the white and high impact colors. Looks messy if you can see behind there, you want it looking shady and mischeivous  8) Cowl? Where abouts? Thats pretty much how it's going to be except the hood scoops will have one line of black at the back like the photo below which is basically how mine will look exceot it won't have the bumperettes and mine will sit a little higer at the back to make it look lighter.  thumbs

    Rusty: That doesn't sound good hope he sold it to someone who respects Ma MoPar and hope he's still with us today.
    He obviously had good taste in cars.  8)

    I believe that car was the one used in Audioslaves - Show Me How To Live music video... download and there's TONS of scenes of a white '70 Chally... and if I remember reading somewhere... it's THAT car that they used!!

    No, it was another one. That Challenger belongs to the onwer of the www.vanisingpointcar.com web site and if you go to the replicas page you'll see the one they used.  thumbs
