SEMA 2017 1968 Charger

Fully independent suspension f & r,, how can that be a bad thing??
I don't at all like the wheels, style nor size(18" is my max), but the very worst visual on it is the chintzy afterthought front chin spoiler.
As far as what people do with THEIR cars, it's THEIR'S to do with as THEY WISH!!

Independent is great so long as you have some travel for them to work! That thing is so slammed there is no travel left so it is bottoming out HARD.

Another Charger ruined... when will it stop? IF somebody wants to do this, they outta just build one completely out of re-pop sheetmetal and parts. No real car ruined that way...

I dont think i will ever waste my time going there to see any of those cars. Yuck.

They do not embrace stock restorations very often. For the guys that like those, the OEM style car shows are a safer venue. The aftermarket seems to be driven by the younger set, the ones that want more modern features integrated into the classic exteriors. Guys like Darius with their late model 3G Hemi, OD transmissions, etc are the next big thing. I can appreciate all types though. Some guys like the stock body, N-50-15s, tunnel ram and 4.88 gears because that was what ruled the street when they were young. Nostalgia is a powerful thing. It is fun to drive a car that reminds you of when your hair was thicker, the belly was smaller and you didn't worry about bills, ex wives, the IRS or politics!

Are You sure it has no travel? All custom fabbed isn't it? Designed around the ride height I would think.

that thing might as well be LS powered to boot.
the color is awesome , but I still prefer my standard issue b5 . I tried to say something nice lol

The car is supposed to have air-ride suspension of some sort. For display, it is lowered down.

What is all the 'junk in the trunk'?
Would like those seats in my Jeep!
