    Odd, mine appears to run through a hole somewhere way further over to the side which feeds directly into the fender well.

    Eyeballing it, looks to point right toward where someone's lap would be in the car, and the outward trajectory puts it right through the rectangular opening where the brake line would pass through. For a separate antenna, or stock? Mine has the stock antenna cable routed the regular way...

    Random update, found what I am 90% certain is a BULLET HOLE!? It comes from the passenger footwell into the engine bay... Someone goofed up and had a bad day. :lol:

    U Joint Removal, Anything Special?

    Getting close to things starting to go back into the Charger and I realized I have yet to rebuild the driveshaft. My last rebuild was on my '59 Chevy which had weird plastic-injected UJs that needed "burning out". Anything funky like that on these, or just remove retaining clips and press 'em...

    Pesky work is always getting in the way. But without it I can't afford to work on the car, what a conundrum haha. I am very excited to get it back into the assembly phase, that is where I am much more comfortable. I did a full teardown and refurb of the engine bay on my '59 Chevy and it was...

    The good news is, I will ironically be replacing the brand new bushings when they get here. I have a set of poly ones on the shelf. Will definitely allow me to inspect them thoroughly during the process.

    Someone needs to make it cooler here in FL, I swear. Anyway more updates! I pulled the hood off the car, as well as the hood hinges. Tons of fun doing that on your own! Incredible timing though, I found out that my new fiberglass six pack scoop hood was complete and ready to roll! I also...

    More progress over the weekend. Pretty much no one in my area will press out bushings apparently, kind of a crazy gap in the market that I never expected to be an issue. The largest machine shop in town, who I've worked with several times for cylinder head work, apparently used to be the only...

    Glad to hear it, because I just got the shipping confirmation haha.

    Hm interesting, so all Chargers had a front sway bar from the factory? The red charger had the earlier clamp on style one in place still, so I did get to see what one of those looked like. I wasn't super thrilled with that design, is it possible to adapt to a later style one? I see they sell...

    VICTORY. With a significant amount of heat and one last round of persuasion with a mini sledge the passenger LCA is now off. Definitely had corrosion in the socket binding it up. While I as feeling motivated, I also pulled the torsion bars and dash harness. It's in pretty good shape, but I...

    So my original plan was to leverage the three day weekend to get the engine bay and floor painted, but that has been sunk by a tropical system bringing tons of rain and humidity. 80% humidity does not play well with paint, so looks like I have to push off another week or so on that. Instead I...

    I think you're pretty much dead on, got one free and ended up managing to separate the K frame from the LCA on the other side so we are 90% of the way there. Going to take the spindle off to get as much load off as possible tonight and I bet it'll behave then. I have brand new bars on the...

    Totally understand that! I am working on a deadline of October for this car to be road ready. I decided the only thing I will allow myself to hold off on doing is the interior if time is getting tight. Anything mechanical has to be 100%. Realizing I may be crazy as that's only three months...

    Finally back from a long trip visiting my grandfather for his 90th birthday, and starting to get back after it! My goal coming into the weekend was to get the front end removed. Unfortunately I am battling against stuck torsion bars. I've read several threads on here and watched a bunch of...
