TheCat Posted April 6, 2012 Posted April 6, 2012 For the time being... I'm keeping my next project that I've been working on for the last week a mystery. But will be giving clues on what I'm working on by the way of picture updates. Here's the first few pictures: Engine Completed:
High octane Posted April 6, 2012 Posted April 6, 2012 Nice job on that Mopar Magnum engine. Will you be putting a decal on that oil filter, or no?
Dr. Cranky Posted April 6, 2012 Posted April 6, 2012 Can't wait to see what you are going to put that engine into. Great details.
bbowser Posted April 6, 2012 Posted April 6, 2012 Hmmm. What would you plop a stock 440 into? Stock manifolds, 4bbl, power steering? Great job BTW.
LAone Posted April 6, 2012 Posted April 6, 2012 im no genius, but i say a muscle car... awesome detailing on that engine.
deathskull59 Posted April 6, 2012 Posted April 6, 2012 nice motor whats it going in a 70 buick 72 chevelle or a clown car.
TheCat Posted April 6, 2012 Author Posted April 6, 2012 Here's more clues... Firewall mostly completed. Interior completed... These pictures may give away what type of vehicle it's going into.
BKcustoms Posted April 6, 2012 Posted April 6, 2012 (edited) Nice work! is it a 68 Charger? Edited April 8, 2012 by BKcustoms
race06 Posted April 8, 2012 Posted April 8, 2012 JUST AWSUM is all I can say! get useto awsum, don't know wat else to say.
trogdor Posted April 8, 2012 Posted April 8, 2012 Looks very nice so far. The vacuum advance on the distributor is a great detail. Each of your sub assemblies look like models on their own. Which is how it should be.
Action Jackson Posted April 8, 2012 Posted April 8, 2012 I do believe that it would be a 68 Charger...just finished the 68 RT kit myself. Dude your attention to detail is just amazin'.
TheCat Posted April 8, 2012 Author Posted April 8, 2012 Sorry for the delay... was at the Mosquito Con this past Saturday... OK... had you guys in suspense long enough... these pictures will finally let you know what that engine is going into... Body Painted and Bare Metal Applied.
TheCat Posted April 8, 2012 Author Posted April 8, 2012 Now the Body meets the Chassis... Attached the radiator... Also added the wires for the horns...
moparfarmer Posted April 8, 2012 Posted April 8, 2012 You've done a masterful job on the Charger. I have one point though(don't take this the wrong way). All "B" body Mopars of that vintage and others have the engine compartment all painted body color. Your car as it is will bring many compliments as is. Your work is clean and very good. Only wish I could build as well as you have. Your engine detail is the utmost. Very well done. Make sure its posted in Under glass when finished.
crazyjim Posted April 8, 2012 Posted April 8, 2012 It's almost a pity to put that engine into a body and over part of it up, Felix. Fantastic job you're doing and I'm glad the suspense is over. Can't wait to see more progress on this puppy.

Thank you very much Wayne - You are correct that all the B body Mopars have the engine compartment painted the body color... But I have a really good reason why I didn't paint it the body color... You will see when the build is complete.
TheCat Posted April 8, 2012 Author Posted April 8, 2012 Project Finished!!! Check out the De-Classified post of the finished project.
