SSmoothie-1968 Charger

[747mopar]

Not too crazy, 392 Hemi. Stock interior, no body mods, chrome painted body color. Mild suspension.

I'll be using a Dakota RT drivetrain (360 auto), pretty sure the daughter wants to keep the interior stockish but I will be doing a few significant body mods. Hopefully by Christmas I can start on it, we'll see.

This is going to be a stunning car when it is done. Nice job on the body and paint! Wow!

I think your choice of rims and tires are too small...

Seriously - the car looks fantastic - now you just need to keep from chipping that wonderful new paint!

What colour did you use for detailing the engine? Looks similar to the "cast iron" paint I've been using. Love it!

It’s cerakote, color is Tungsten.

Did you use air dry Cerakote or did you bake it?
