Well Ron, you are in luck because I just happen to have an extra one sitting around. Give you something to do in your spare time. Perfect time to - seeing as how many others are being rebuilt right now on this board. :headbang:

I:edgy: see a few that I would like
 
Really looking like it's coming together there Elk. Man your shop is cool
 
Doesn't look like much, but it is a great day for the Charger. First time in a long time it has sat on the ground with wheels attached. It is now officially a roller. The front fenders and the hood are the only pieces left to be blocked out. That and some seam sealer on the body and this thing is ready for paint. I stopped in at the body shop last week to check their schedule and kind of figured this would be a bad time because of all the car - deer collisions happening right now, and I was correct. They are going to try to get it in the week of Thanksgiving, but I am not holding my breath. The deer hits in the fall around here are their bread and butter. On another note, I also special ordered the wheels from Summit. We decided to be a little different and went with the Keystone Classics. 15x10's on the rear are snug to say the least, but I got the backspacing correct to get them tucked right in. The bad news on this is that Crager has just shut down the line on custom stuff for their yearly machine maintenance. So they wont be made until January. If I could have gotten the rearend in the car for measurements 2 weeks ago, I would already have them.

It's got 4, but I think they are all different sizes lol. You mean there is a subsection of FBBO called the Charger club? What kind of nutjobs would be a part of that?

Yea, the black dust on everything is starting to get old. Can't wait for the sanding to be done.

No seat needed here, I got in and drove while my boys pushed me out of the hoist area, making the standard car noises along the way of course.
