    1969 Dodge Charger RT Restoration

    This past weekend we even attended our first car show after a quick dry clean. Still a little adjusting and fine tuning to do. The brakes also leak due to a short brake line flange in the master cylinder. Once those are taken car of all that will be left is a final wet sand, buff, and polish.

    This was my first real test drive. It drove nice, but drove much better after an alignment. This was before the first wash or dry clean.

    Does anyone know where these door plugs go? I know I removed them, but I could not remember where they go during re-assembly. Online they say they are door vent windows plugs. I found no extra holes!

    The interior went together very quickly over the last few weeks. We finished recovering the seats and am very happy with how they turned out. The only thing I would have done differently is putting more stuffing in the rear seat back. I used as much as the 15 year Legendary install video...

    Thank you @Nxcoupe. I did get it figured out. The factory default for the fans to come on was set to about what my operating temp was. For some reason when it came on it killed the system and the car would die or not restart. The car would get warmer the first few minutes it sat and would...

    And now I can listen to all those great AM radio stations. I forgot to install this while the fender was off, but it really wasn't bad doing it while on. I traced the pattern from the old fender.

    The windows all went in much easier than expected. Lots of foam glass cleaner really helped for the front. It was a pain getting the door windows in as one piece. The front and back are definitely not one person jobs, but the wife and I had no problems getting them in.

    I have made good progress over the last few months. I attempted the headliner, but was not happy with it and did not think I would be if I tried again. It was the second item that I had a shop do. The first was the engine machine work and long block build. The seats have been torn apart and...

    Thank you! It is a great feeling to almost be done. I have spent thousands of hours over the last 4 years and am ready to start relaxing, and cruising in style.

    And now that we are caught up, it has been started! Sniper EFI was a little tricky to get the idle set after engine break in. Break in went well because it ran smoothly at any RPM besides idle. It starts nicely now but idles a little high. If I go any lower using the idle screw (trying to...

    And the steering column... It was a pain get the two bolts that hold collar on to the column.

    The "new" version of the AMD bumpers are just okay. They just became available and they said they updated there tooling. The shine is good, but you can see the metal had creases from forming before they were plated. Not bad, just not perfect.

    The dash was also started and finished. The reproduction dash bezels available are not that great. They took some trimming to fit and unfortunately the black painted over the chrome plastic scrapes off easily. It is a big improvement over what it looked like before. The gauges were painted...

    1969 Dodge Charger RT Restoration

    Well, I got sick of waiting for bumpers and glass so I cancelled my orders and went directly to AMD. Before that I installed the wipers, brake pedal, and made an attempt at a head liner. The head liner was much more difficult than the vinyl top and I was not happy with the results. I decided...
