I've been chipping away at my kid's Coronet project.
8.25 rear is out and getting ready to install the 8.75.
All new wiring is almost finished.
New gauges.
Rear window removed to install aluminum sheet to block off trunk area.
Fuel cell installed and battery switch and relocation done.
He may be ready to go before me.

Is that FJ6? What year? That rear window looks just like mine. I guess mopar reused a lot across models.

F8 is dark metallic green right? That engine bat doesn’t look like dark metallic green to me. Looks like Sublime fj5 maybe fj6

68-70 B is all the same "uni-body" but Charger only has special sheet metal in many areas.

It's going to be street/strip.
We'll see how much street he does with the spool.
The engine is going to be what I had in the GTX.
mild hydraulic roller/ stealth heads.
My best in the GTX was 11.20 @ 121.
His setup should use the power a bit more effectively.
I'm hoping for some 10.90's. Maybe a bit more.
 
This is the trans for that setup.
Found this crack in the tail housing while in storage today.
