71 Charger W.I.P.

[dimebolt]

This is my current wip. A friend is paying me to build him a Dallas Cowboys themed 71 Charger. So far not much, but will post as it progresses. Have a long way to go, but it's starting to shape up.

Thanks for looking.

I'm a Giants fan, but thats lookin sweet lol. Good job. what paint is that ?

[Bartster]

l hate the Cowboys, but this does look good in those colors. Nice engine so far too. Off topic a bit, l like your avatar. l just stripped a built up & never thought of black. lt looks nice as well. You should post it. OK, back to your regularly scheduled Charger. Bart.

Thanks guys. I don't really follow football, but I don't like the Cowgirls either. I like their cheerleaders though. Scuderia, the paint is Testors AMC Sterling Silver Metallic, and Testors Sapphire Blue Metallic. Bartster, the car on my avatar is a 1:1. But I'll post the pics I have of it.

Like just about every other person who doesn't live in Texas (unless they buy into that stupid "America's Team" hype), I can't stand the "Dumbass Cowpies" either. The car looks pretty good, but I can imagine it in Eagles "Midnight Green" where yours is blue. Just sayin'...

A guy I work with loves his Cowboys. Every time he wears his "Got Five?" Super Bowl ring shirt in to work, I have to say to him, "I see you're wearing your Steelers shirt again... Oh wait, that's right... the Steelers got SIX"! I also love to remind him that the Cowpies have only won ONE post season game this CENTURY!

Thanks Corey. l believe l'll be going with black! Oh, Jim? l live in Texas, lol!

[dimebolt]

No problem. Yeah man the black just looks sooo mean! I love it. I have a 68 Hemi Dart on here in drag cars that's black, but it doesn't shine like that.

Corey

[Bartster]

You're right, Corey. Looks mean enough to squeeze a Hemi between the fenders! l think you just helped me plan a build, lol!

[dimebolt]

Cool Bart, glad I could help.

Here's a few pics of the suspenson and chassis, and the interior. Still have to make new torsion bars, and seatbelts.

Thanks for looking.

Will get more done and posted this weekend.

"WHATS THAT"? a Charger interior.

[dimebolt]

Uh, yeah.

[dimebolt]

I decided to go a little more drastic since it's supposed to be a drag car. No mods were necessary other than trimming rear wheel openings so the tires don't pinch

Thanks for looking.

Sweet build. I'm liking the Cuda as well.

[Heartattaq]

a set of big beefy trac bars would look nice on that, great colour scheme i love the cowboys.

[dimebolt]

Thanks guys. Great idea man, I'll have to see what I can come up with.
