Saving my brothers 68 charger!

[Ratrodtommy77]

Here is a charger I got from my brother... No chassis and no running gear.. Just a shell which he cut one of the rear wheel arches to make a derby car.. He never cut the other one out though.. So I decided to make a pro stock style car with spares from my parts box.. I have started making the new rear wheel arch for it which isn't done.. I have two 440's and a hemi (still deciding on the engine) and some drag wheels from a chevelle I ended up making into a dirt tracker. I have a chassis from a studebaker funny car I used to have and countless other parts so hopefully make a pretty sick charger out of!

For me it's easier to just get a new body that to spend hours and hours repairing damage. As for the engine..........................both 440's. Think about it.

You have i pile of body work to do but hey use what you have!

The body work doesn't really scare me like scratch building a chassis does.. Never really scratch built a chassis but I have to learn at some point.. I've decided to ditch the charger front end and put a 30's style front on her as I have a thing for experimenting and rat rods.. On my own car (Holden kingswood ute l, basically an el camino or a South African chevrolet el camino) or as the USA calls them a sports pickup I drew up plans for it to have the body as the original 1977 body with no modifications except the front is coming off and I'm running bobby fenders and a 30's style grille and headlights.. I like doing things nobody has done before.. Seeing how as I did it to my real car, why not do it to a model car?
