    looks good on that Ass!! Yeah!! Not sure how well the front grille is gonna look since the hood will be higher than the grill lights upper square off. Too bad He could not shave the fenders / body / the front cowl supports and bring the hood down to the top of the lights to make it all work witha bulged hood. IMO! squash it a bit.


      Or just bring the grill up a few inches.

    I reserve judgement until I see the whole thing.  But if it looks as good as I think it might, I may have to steal the idea!

    My '12 has HID headlights.  Those alone would be a welcome addition to the 72.

    The old school part of me hates the thought of this, all of the rest loves the look!  Agree that the grill needs some work to blend but based on the job they did with tail lights I'd give them time to finish!!  Looking GOOD!

    There was an article on a guy who had one built in MOPAR action magazine... anybody see it? It was an old challenger with new challenger taillights, door handles, and side mirrors, I forget what else.  Cool, but I wouldnt want to chop one up or spend the money for it. Just buy a new one! lol

    Hmmm, Dodge copied the original with those parts on the newer Challenger. Then, someone takes the copy parts and reinstalls them on the original....Ok, I got it now.

    I'm wondering what the new Charger taillights would look like in a 69 Charger?

    Doesn't look bad at all. Turned out way better than I thought it would.
