I decided to add more detail to my 440 6 pack.  I used a piece of wire and some superglue and added the hose from the PCV valve to the carbs.  Then I found my Shabo Tire Graphics and added Goodyear to the tires.  I thought I had an extra set of water slide decals, but I must have used them elsewhere.

Thanks Alex!  I did a sniff test on this and it is still gassing out even after 12 hours in my dehumidifier.  It is dry to the touch, but still gassing out.

Thanks Bil!

The chassis is almost completed, except for the exhaust tips, wheels and tires.

I did some detailing on the front grille, rear trunk lid and the taillights.  Then I started taping the hood for the Performance Hood Treatment.

I finally painted the '69 GTX with Tamiya TS-6 Matt Black.  Next will be Gloss Clear over the Matt Black to bring out a glossiness to the paint.

Thanks Carl!  I haven't been working on this project like I should.  I haven't felt like like working anything like I should, so some projects have languished.

I found the wiper motor on an old AMT Dodge Challenger firewall and I added a power brake booster.

The engine bay is complete.  I even added the extra horn on the other side of the radiator core support.  After looking at several other builds of the '69 GTX, I noticed a squat in the rear suspension.  I decided to add a couple of risers to the rear leaf springs to raise the suspension a little.

Thanks Jeremy!  I want to eliminate the rear squat and I searched my many parts boxes to find the raisers for a '68 Dodge that I had to modified.  I can't remember if it is for a Charger or a  Dart.
