Hey 72Sunroof, glad you finally posted something!  That will be some sweet Challenger when you are finished.  What color will she be and what are your plans for the motor?

Welcome to the forum 72sunroof!  Glad you joined us.  Is this the stage that your car is in right now?  I remember that stage very well.  What are your plans for her and what engine will be going in?

72Sunroof, I suppose I am willing to negociate. :laughing:  Thanks for that photo.  It sounds like you have most of your components refinished already.  I still haven't touched any of that stuff yet. ::)

Welcome abaord 72SR.

Nice Challenger mate.


Can't believe no one has asked yet but is that Challenger an original Sunroof car???  :o
By the photo of it "complete" or prior to resto I would say it is, very rare otion.

Thanks people, Yes NZ it is a rare one with the sunroof option,was looking for a BB challenger and the guy had it in a old Dodge dealer in Georgia,The price was right so no BB for me,IT was pretty rusty in the back,dent in the door and a fender(full of bondo). It has been over 2  years on the project. Tons of fun
Going to change the size of some pics.Here is a before of the other side
It was in rough shape but I did drive it on to the trailer

At least you did get the chance to drive it up the trailer.  The starter went out on mine before I even got the chance to fire it up at the previous owner's house.  Apparently some tire kicker that got to it before I did ground the starter's gear to shreds.  So four guys pushed it up the trailer with four flat tires instead. ::)  Thanks for the other photo, 72SR. :thumbs:
