    Looks really nice!  :thumbsup:

    Those bakelite heater control valves on the apron are getting hard to find and pricey now.

    Thanks Topcat. Yes, you are right about the heater control valve. I found it at Classic auto air. They claimed it was NOS. Not shure about that. I don't see any Mopar part no. or Pentastar, but it is very close. It was $150.00 + the ride...

    Thanks! Well, it depends which St-Isidore it is. I think there is 4 St-Isidore in Quebec. I am in St-Isidore-de-Laprairie, on the south shure of Montreal, around St-Constant, Delson, St-Remi, Chateauguay

    nice car robert hope to see in car show in summer 2013 in quebec  :2thumbs:
    Thanks!  I think I might be ready for next summer. So far, things are going great. I plan to go to the Chrysler convention in St-Liboire. I would like to go to the Moparfest in Ontario and, (I don't think it will be this year), I would love to go to the Mopar Nats.

    Hello everyone...

    I haven't post pics in a while, but the progresses keep on going. The headliner is installed with the visors, mirror, dome, upper seat belts, trim around the side windows, A pillar caps & trims around the backglass & windsheild. So, inside, it's coming good. I also installed some components under the hood and I installes the drip mouldings on both side. I will post some pics soon. But for now, here are the wide mouldings I was looking for. I've been looking for those a long time, but I finally found 'em. The hood moulding is NOS, (from Tony's parts) and the fender trims are repop (from Classic industries).

     Ok Robert,

                I will try to find out which area  of St.Isidore,Quebec the car is from.

                                                                                         Thank You,
                                                                                                 72 rallye :cheers:

    Hi everybody...

    A little more progress...  The dash and steering column are in. The interior is about 75% complete. Next week-end, I hope to complete the carpet ans seat installation. I applied the stripes and I also droped the engine in and installed the A833. Engine is not hook-up yet, but slowly, things are moving...

    Hey Robert, Challenger really looks nice. The way you are building you car is the way to go in my opinion. Nothing like putting your time and labor into it. There is just something about putting most of your car together, than buying it finished.. Just saying.

    Hi everyone... Haven't post anything in a while, but I was still working on my project that is, almost completed. Still have a few things to do, but I would say it is about 95% done. Here are some pics.
