Hey guys!
Since everyone wants pictures, I can do better. Here's videos instead!

Figure I'd start a thread to show the progress on my 1970 Charger R/T. The car had seen a pretty rough life up until I was able to purchase it. I located it through an ad on Facebook and had it shipped from Kentucky to Texas. It arrived rough... reaaaal rough.
The info I was told on it was it being used as a parts car from the 80's. A guy planned on crushing it for scrap once he was done with it. Purchased by the seller instead, it sat partially covered since.
The intent is to build this and get it up to speed on what I'm wanting in the car. To appear mainly 70's era "stock", minus one obvious thing, when looking at it from the outside. I want to use original style gauges, original style seats, wood grain wheel/dash, etc.
At the time I've started this thread, Ive got the following done to it already:
New AMD metal for all floors, deck filler, both quarters, package tray, deck filler, trunk and trunk extensions
Stinger Fiberglass Fenders
Dana 60 with 3.54 gears
PST leaf springs
QA1 Level 2 handling kit (tubular k frame)
Power steering box/pump
USCT Level 2 stiffening kit (subframe connectors, torsion boxes, and core support)
1970 440 Warranty block, forged internals with 8-71 Roots supercharger
Rebuilt A833 trans
Looking to do the following to it or needing:
FiTech EFI
Tanks INC EFI tank with in tank pump
Bird Catcher
Crager wheels (or similar)
Pistol grip shifter
Wilwood Disc brakes (all 4 corners)
Full interior
American Wire wiring harness
Re-chrome bumpers
Electric waterpump/Radiator/Plumbing
MSD ignition
Needless to say, this is going to be a challenge still. I figure I would start this now, so as I need help, its one evolving thread!
