I have a 66 Belvedere I AC car that came with good floors but the best one was a 4dr (of course) with perfect floors! The Belvedere has excellent flooring except for the left rear foot well. Looked like someone turned a battery over in that area.

Nice !! I see it is JJ1 Gold

Yes it is Mopar Mitch. Not my favorite but it's growing on me!

 

[dieseldazzle]

Beautiful machine, congrats! Man look at those floors, hard to believe its a charger....

BTW do you still have the original carpet? If you do and the padding underneath is in decent shape I would buy it from you!
PM me and let me know.....Justin

Original front carpet was destroyed or I would have kept it and redyed it. I have the rear but it's staying with the car

 

[dieseldazzle]

Very nice score! What's the stripe down the side? Somebody add molding?

Something added to it way back when it was just an ordinary car used for work school and groceries i suppose

 

[dieseldazzle]

Nice!

What is your cleaner of choice on the upholstery?

301 products.
Some actetone on a rag and Herb's paints do wonders.

This makes you a gold digger

Sweet Charger, great find and save.

Just want to thank everyone for the comments. I posted a sound clip of it earlier. Still not sure what cam was put in it many moons ago.

In case you missed it

I restored a 68 Road Runner a few years ago, that was JJ1. The color changed some as I used BC/CC and added a little flake.. Heres a link to that build thread.

My 68 charger was originally gold before the previous owner painted it orange

I gotta say man that's a sweet roadrunner and the color is very nice. Great job!!

 

[Superfreak]

Sounds nice.

 

[Glenwood]

love that sound! I'm gonna have to check some barns around here.

 

[dieseldazzle]

Well guys I've just about completed the interior. Wrap it up tomorrow. Done with the mystery motor. All I know is headers, Eddie intake, purpleshaft cam.

Bad news is I may have to let her go.
