    Would a 71 B Body out handle a 2018 BMW M3?

    Its all about design IMO, the 10 Challenger was designed to use IRS, R&P, etc. it is also lower which helps considerably.

    Would a 71 B Body out handle a 2018 BMW M3?

    IMO all of the mods that you are proposing will make your car handle very well especially of you tie that body together with torque boxes and subframe connectors. These cars were not made all that well and being unibody provides a lot of body flex. You can mitigate ride through your choice of...

    Would a 71 B Body out handle a 2018 BMW M3?

    I agree that an A body would be a much better platform and could definitely be made to handle "as good" or maybe better (think Green Brick from Mopar Action). The B body platform overall is just too big in terms of wheel base as well as weight in general. Sure you can add more HP but that isn't...

    Would a 71 B Body out handle a 2018 BMW M3?

    I am not a fan of the M3 per se but I think it would take a lot to make a RR out handle it. I am sure that with enough money, parts and work you could get it close but they are so different in terms of design, CG, wheel base, etc.

    71 Charger Superbee Tribute/Restomod Build

    I've done a few of them now but when I originally did the Challenger that was my first and I didn't know what I didn't know. Now I can get one pretty tight and looking good especially since I just bought a steamer.

    71 Charger Superbee Tribute/Restomod Build

    I also made some improvements to my 70 Challenger; Got the headliner tightened up some, still have a couple issues but it is what it is at this point. Cleaned up the under hood wiring which I have been meaning to do for a long time. I had to order some new parts such as A pillar covers...

    71 Charger Superbee Tribute/Restomod Build

    As promised I set those seats out in the sun and it helped a lot, so much so that I will be using them as they are. On another note, the 572 Hemi Roadrunner is on its way to Australia, it was picked up yesterday and in on its way to long beach CA.

    383 Mopar Rebuild Help

    "what cam" is dependent on a lot of things, yes you can just buy something or take someone else's advice but it is best if you wait until you figure out what the engine is going to be, meaning will it be a larger displacement. Once you figure out that part and determine how you are going to use...

    383 Mopar Rebuild Help

    What help are you looking for? You need to disassemble the block making sure to keep everything organized. You need to measure the bores to determine if they need to be bored or you can just hone them, more than likely you will need to bore it which will require new pistons. Locate a local...

    Need some help with ID'ing console conversion parts

    The one with the "tube" away from the shifter is E body but I don't know if that was also used in 71+ B bodies or not.

    Opinions wanted of the ballpark value on this 73 B5 in/out A57 400 #'s car

    Sounds to me like you've already made up your mind, go and get the $25K and bring it home.

    Opinions wanted of the ballpark value on this 73 B5 in/out A57 400 #'s car

    Nice looking car, I would say $20-23K but thats from just looking at pics. Since you have some sentimental value with it, Id say offer $22.5 but be prepared to pay the $25

    Curious as to how many 73 GTX sunroof cars are known?

    Like so many things Mopar you would probably have to extrapolate a number meaning determine what is the percentage of Roadrunners/GTXs were made with sunroofs and then apply that percentage to the GTX population. Not a firm number but probably as close as you are going to get unless someone...

    Curious as to how many 73 GTX sunroof cars are known?

    No sir I do not, sorry. I once owned a 74 RR and I have had several 70 GTX's but never a 73 - 74 GTX.

    I hope so, but if not I have options, I just ordered a 1500 watt steamer

    71 Charger Superbee Tribute/Restomod Build

    So I was able to recover the bottom of the back seat, in this case though I just reused the foam. I am not super happy with the creases and such but we are due to get some hot weather this coming week and I am going to put both parts out into the sun for awhile and see if that helps. If not I...

    My new 71 SSP! Any advice accepted!

    It’s just metal, no magic to it and since it’s not a rare or highly valuable car I’d cut out the rust and make new patch panels to replace them. If you do it right (as in take your time, make good cuts, cut far enough back to be into good metal, and make accurate patch panels) you can make the...

    71 Charger Superbee Tribute/Restomod Build

    Since my last posts I went through some issues trying to recover the rear seat, the short of it is that I didn't really know what I was doing and essentially was defeated for a few days. Then after thinking it through while working on the headliner in my Challenger I came up with a new game plan...
