1973 Charger "T/A"

100% home built old school hot rod by myself and my friend Chris Grace. 1978 440, 727, & 125 shot nitrous. Paint is rustoleum flat and semi-flat, and single stage enamel gloss in the engine bay. 3.55 Sure grip 8-3/4 with dual 2-1/2 exhaust. Bumpers were converted to 71-72 style. The entire car was put together for less than $2k using a lot of left over parts from previous projects including the bumpers and brackets, fenders, hood, engine, driveshaft, and rear glass. Parts bought were a transmission, headers and full exhaust kit, nitro plate kit (added after pictures), schumacher conversion motor mounts, carb, B&M shifter, windshield, and misc. gaskets and installation parts. This was Chris's daily driver which I inherited after his passing, RIP. It has since been updated with an aluminum radiator and gold slapstick shifter and console.

New old fenders needing work, but not rusty!

Not sure what we were doing here, but apparently an unpopular task?

Celebration of the end of block sanding!

Laying down the flat:

Q. What's it gonna look like?

A. Looks like Rock and Roll!

Donor engine low compression motor home with mild 906 heads, mild cam, and Eddy intake:

Presto. Drop it in on Schumacher conversion mounts & Hooker Comp headers:

Ready to rumble:

"Hell yea" I believe was the quote:

Chris stomping on it:

Hey! Got an award.
