    HemiChallenger,

    Awesome work.  I am very glad that you brought it back from the grave.  FJ6 cars are rare to say the least!

    Would you mind if parked next to you?   :cheers:

    Nice choice of color there!

    Btw, you may be the only person I know of that might have beat me in the metal replacement department.

    FY1443433This is a customers car, not my personal vehicle. The customer lives in lancaster so im sure you guys can get togther to display them or do a photoshoot at carlisle. I will have the car in my booth at carlisle to display the restoration work that we do. I have a two shops in Wilow Street and Columbia. You should come out to our Mopar BBQ in the fall!
    74challenger03The car was originally a 383 auto R/T real N96 shaker hood car. Since we did not have the original drivetrain we are upgrading but will keep the original paint and interior colors.
    HP_Cuda Thanks, this one is nothing compared to a current project that we are doing.

    Did you graft the vin stamp back into the cowl?
    Looks like you put the original radiator support in. 

    Awesome project.  Daunting I bet.  That's an incredible amount of replacement work.  :2thumbs:

    Thanks guys. I salvaged both original cowl and rad support. It was very time consuming but they are two panels that are important to be original in my book.

    Parts not coming in or coming in damaged has been a problem. Waiting on a few things that are pretty critical to get some things rolling...

    Got the exhaust up and it was a pain with the 3" pipes








    Heater box before and after shots...






    The inside all buttoned up waiting for dash...which the the pad isnt here yet :stomp:





    Thats all for now Ill have more shortly....
