I know that this is a strange topic but here goes.... The right side door handle in my 70 Charger has a really stiff button. I don't think about it much except when I expect to take the wife along on a road trip. I usually open the door for her in everything we drive. It is just what I do. My...

Didn’t the factory have seams where the Dutchman panel met the quarter panels? These two cars have gone through body and paint so I suspected that the seams were filled. My Charger still has seams.

These are such a cool feature. Imagine my surprise when I learned that not all 1970 Chargers had them. They were optional on the base model. My red car is originally an “XP”, also known as a “500”. This mid level model was well optioned and the turn signals were part of that. My right side...

Hello again! Like many of you, I wanted to fit the widest tires that I could in my car. When my Charger was toward the end of bodywork and paint in 2003, I measured carefully and ordered tires and wheels that allowed free movement without rubbing the outer body. The look that I wanted for this...

It was sometime about a year ago that I pulled the rear window (Broke) and cut out the rusty spots in the window channel. The clips in the rusty areas were junk but the other areas were fine. For the sake of consistency and straight trim, I'm replacing all of the clips. It is simple enough to...

I have a sort of unique problem. I have THIS fender: Other than the damage at the edge, it is very nice. If you've ever looked for 1970 Charger fenders, you'd know why I want to save this one. The bracing behind the outer skin is folded in and not an easy fix. I am curious if all 68-70 B...

I have read for years that the VIN shows up in 5 places on the 1970 cars. Fender tag. Dash VIN tag. Trunk rain gutter lip on left side. Top of radiator core support. Drivers door My '70 XP has the door decal, the VIN tag on the dash but I lost the fender tag years ago. I can't feel it in the...

I have a 1970 Charger and it looks like mine is longer. If one were to measure on top from the cowl to the outer edge of the bumper, is there much of a difference? No big deal either way, I was just wondering.

Hey guys. I have about a half gallon each of red, white and blue Omni single stage paint and need some MR186 reducer along with MH235 hardener. I hate to dispose of this paint, I just need the catalyst and reducer to spray what I have here. I'm in California where the VOCs of the paint have been...

I often buy cars to fix up and sell. Because of this, I'll usually have to paint a car to make it presentable. My local paint guy used to offer PPG and Omni products but about a year ago they dropped Omni and picked up Shopline. Their clear seems to lay down okay but their basecoat Black and...

Living out here on the leftie coast, the enviro-nazis have made it difficult for plating shops to stay in business. The last bumper I needed, I had to buy new.

Fairly simple question, but maybe a complicated answer? I paint cars as a hobby. Sometimes I help friends and paint their cars, other times I paint a car that I intend to sell. I pften have materials left over. In fact, i have several cans of various chemicals, many with just a few ounces...

I was given a beat up hood from a 70 GTX. It is NOT an Air Grabber hood, but one that has some sort of opening at the cowl end. I'm not very familiar with these hoods. The bracket/grille/whatever that bolts to the back of the raised section is missing. Does anyone have a picture of one of these...

On another site, I have seen several pictures of 68-70 Chargers with small black plastic spoilers that were originally designed for 69 Camaro models. I was impressed with the look, so yesterday I bought one. $37 with tax. It looks like it will fit the contours of the valance quite well, but I...
