Looks like a great project, congrats:thumbsup:.
 
Looks amazing I would rather have the 73 then my 72 I like that style better what kind of shape is it in looks nice
 
a nice lookin money pit
 
Looks good, very complete. Paint and interior should be the big expenses. Not much repro for them, but cool car
 
Hey send me a msg I might be interested in swapping bodys if your into 72's more! Depending on rust ect .

Thanks guys. its a new world coming from 68-70 b bodies to this car. need to learn a new platform! i would like to put hide away headlights in the car but it seems like they are an expensive swap. :realcrazy:

I just put my daily driver 73 Charger on the road this year. I been driving the crap out of it. It's like driving a big better handling E body. It takes some getting used to if you are used to second gen B bodies,but it rides and handles decent. I'm liking it! I put 71 hidden headlights,and 71 R/T taillights in mine,I also grafted in 68 Charger marker lights,and got rid of those generic rectangle plastic junk ones 73s come with.

Sounds like you got yourself a ride ride! What motor are you running?
 
What are your plans for it? Will you be doing a build thread? I would be interested in following it as I plan to start on my 73 here very soon. Yours looks real solid and since mine isn’t I’ll be hunting some sheet metal. Anyway nice car!!

Its just a 318 with an edelbrock 4 barrel carb. If driven properly it gets almost 18 MPG. It works for a daily driver.
