    Building 70 Charger with AMD panels

    You have the advantage right now, before it gets all put together. Judging from your other post where you indicated a desire to have good handling as well as high power, you're going to want to build the car stronger than Dodge originally did. Check into aftermarket items such as sub frame...

    Rust Bubbles - How Big of an issue?

    BLM? Behavioral Language Model? I didn't even know he was that involved in computer science.

    Rust Bubbles - How Big of an issue?

    Richard Petty would just slap an STP sticker over the bubble. :)

    Rust Bubbles - How Big of an issue?

    I'll bet $3 that you'll find body-filler under that paint, covering the rust that was beneath that.

    Painting your car by matching it to your 50 year old hood springs???

    But even before the factories started with clear coats in the 1980s, it was common for custom paint jobs in lacquer to have clear sprayed on as a top coat. I have paint books from the early '70s talking about it. Back in 1975 a guy at work took his Monte Carlo to a paint shop and for $50 they...

    Prep for epoxy primer

    The original question was for epoxy, not all 2k are epoxy. Epoxy isn't porous, but a 2k Urethane primer is.

    Bumper Question: Re-chrome or purchase new

    Let's face it, a "million" is hyperbole, obviously nobody will stamp a million bumpers when that many cars weren't made in the first place. If they stamped a couple thousand they're probably doing well. My new 1970 road runner bumpers that I bought last year look as good as the factory...

    Trunk Lid Alignment

    Your hinge may have been physically bent up. You may have to remove the lid to measure left and right sides to catch a difference. If it is bent, you'll know where to go next.

    Fixing MAACO Mistake-Os.

    I've used only the solid eraser wheel. It worked quite well, even on those thick reflective decals that you see on commercial vehicles. Left no residue behind at all.

    Fixing MAACO Mistake-Os.

    The bake ovens used in paint shops have much less heat than the factory bake ovens, to avoid heat damage to upholstery, rubber and fuel systems. It's more like cooking under the Arizona sun for a few hours.

    Converting to Telescoping Antenna?

    I don't know which brand you're looking at, but 22"-57" could mean that, like some automatic antenna, it will adjust to different lengths depending on which FM station you're tuned into. My stock Lexus antenna does that.

    Molasses as a rust remover is awesome

    Forgot to put in that I got the pail for $29.99 again in Auguast. I had this picture in my own molasses thread but here it is.

    Hammertone finishes usually stick to rust like crazy and leave a hard glossy finish. https://www.rustoleum.com/product-catalog/consumer-brands/stops-rust/hammered

    Rust removal by using molasses

    It was over a year on the last mixture, with quite a few items being de-rusted. That tank was meant to hold bulk motor oil in a shop. I got a couple of free tanks, so I sawed an opening into the top and put a hinge on it.

    Rust removal by using molasses

    Drained and replaced the molasses mixture in my tank. At least the price hasn't gone up in the past couple of years.

    1969 GTX Rear Side Marker Color

    Almost. Actually, in 1969 Chrysler changed over to a larger reflector, eliminating the light. The regulations called for either a light or reflector at the time. In 1970 they put lights into the reflectors. So the 1969 housings are a one-year only design as well.

    Low roof charger

    I don't think it looks bad from every angle. I like this view. The backlite looks more laid back and streamlined.
