One time long ago sitting at a stop light in North West Indiana I was told my car was sexy. Same 73 Charger as the bronze one in post #33.

I have used two generic rag joints off the Help rack at the parts store. Bolted them together with a few washers. $25 at most. That was a while ago when there was no correct replacements available.

No rot in the body is an excellent start. Hope the floor pans are as clean.

I have been using a Champion 3 row 28" radiator for a few years now. I am in Phoenix, so it gets hot. The Champion keeps the engine cool with the AC on in the extreme heat of the summer. I am very impressed by the Champion given it's very affordable price point. I would use Champion again.

The best bang for your bucks is a running motor home 440. You can use all of it, all the accessories on the front, exhaust manifolds, even the thermoquad if it still has one. Just need to swap the truck oil pan for a car one. You can find these around a $1000 still. Plan on another few hundred...

If you have a mechanic who works on your car, he should be more than capable of installing a PCV valve for you. If you dont do your own work on this car that is your best bet.

If your 73/74 assemblies are in good shape they will sell.

You need the entire tail lamp assembly for each side.

No such thing as a cheap adjustable shock. A worn out shock will allow the front to rise very well. And they are not dangerous to use for a specific purpose like drag racing. This is not a drag car I am putting them on. It is a street cruiser with a honking engine that can't get traction. It is...

I want to try a pair of worn out front shocks on my 73. This will be for drag racing only. I need the front to lift on take off. Worn shocks on the front is an old school trick I want to try. Wish I would have kept the ones that were on the car. Anyone have a pair they want to get rid of?

I heard Jay Leno one time sate "if your making money restoring cars your doing it wrong". I have done several as I call them "rescues". Cars that needed desperate help to make them run and drive safely. Or just get them back on the road. There is money in doing that all be it very little...

On the other side being rare and low production means not many buyers either. He can keep them. When he is gone they will be sold for 50 cents a pound.

I took a bunch of stuff to Spring Fling a couple years ago to sell, not to show and transport back home. I bartered some but made sure the other guy took it home and not me. Git rid of a lot, had no offers on others.

I have. The guy can ask any ridiculous amount he wants. It won't sell, just a waste of time. There is a lot of overpriced "gold" in the for sale section.

I like to see the projects creative people build. For example, I am not a low rider guy, or bouncing cars. But to look at how those guys build them, the ingenuity and craftsmanship is out of this world. You have to respect that.

Thats pretty awesome. I am no fan of electric cars, mainly because I am a dinosaur who doesn't like change. But the build quality and the tech in that car is great.

It can be restored. Does the cost matter to you? I would estimate the mechanical and interior restoration will cost around $20,000 not including any labor. That is doing it on the cheap using used parts and rebuilding/restoring what you have when you can. Sunroof parts are going to be almost...

Nice car! Looks to be original unrestored, is that correct?

If you want a decent head unit with some of the new tech like hands free phone usage you have to go with an under dash unit.

Have the quarter panels been replaced? They may not be in the original factory positions. Same if the doors have been straightened out in the past. General build quality, panel alignment, door gaps, etc. were not all that good to begin with 50 years ago.
