Hey just recently picked up a 72 charger this past weekend and have been going through it.
Previous owner had done alot of work restoring the charger as far as sanding and repainting frame, underbody, engine bay, and body. The charger runs well, but does have some issues.
There seems to be a parasitic drain and I think I've identified it. The dome light always stays on with the switch on or off. I have checked the door switches and I am pretty sure they are good as the light for lighting up the ignition turns off when the doors are closed.
Other issue I've noticed randomly is the right turn signal Indicator will randomly stay on while driving. Any ideas what would be causing it? Thinking maybe looking at getting the car rewired would be a good thing to do.
Also just noticed the gas tank is leaking from the sending unit. Ordered a new gasket, hoping that fixes it!
Besides that love this thing, just figuring out the random issues from being 47 years old!
