http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d3...psj13novsd.jpg We changed the lower mounting location on the fender to mount up rather than into the pinch weld which we eliminated earlier. http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d3...pspvml90fn.jpg http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d3...psfr1cltsa.jpg We had the Roadster Shop build the chassis with a 3 inch longer wheel base. I was never a fan of the large "overhang" in front of the wheel. http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d3...pspzvczvfi.jpg http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d3...psmyp3z9mx.jpg http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d3...pskvnx8xre.jpg -troy |
One of the main body mods to be done to the car was changing the body lines on the doors. I was never a fan of how the upper body line crossed in the door. This required us to build new door skins to straighten out the lines as well as correct the lines in the fenders to flow straight rather than downward.

That will be corrected on this car. http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d3...ps1yqfklgv.jpg http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d3...psrcv9rqrv.jpg http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d3...psr7ddhev7.jpg http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d3...psxrtp4ggq.jpg http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d3...psbnj9z89v.jpg The front and rear bumpers will be flush fit to the car out of .125 Alloy. http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d3...ps0ifocn8r.jpg http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d3...ps6mtz3aqh.jpg http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d3...psdeysfyhy.jpg http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d3...psmnpcuqqe.jpg http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d3...psw0jmqkbe.jpg http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d3...psnx934be3.jpg -troy |
Another Modification I wanted to do was to flatten out the front valance and not have if fall under the car so bad. We had to rebuild the entire front section of the front fenders as well as build a front valance from scratch. We also built an alloy front chin spoiler.
Fog light pockets were salvaged from a camaro front valance. -troy http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d3...pshxmvernv.jpg http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d3...pskbpr9a8n.jpg http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d3...pscznpa7nj.jpg http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d3...ps2uace1hj.jpg http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d3...psxvzpr7s5.jpg http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d3...pstb54vox5.jpg |

I saw this at the open house during the Power Tour. Flawless of course.
|
bad ass troy. great work as always from your crew.
|
Wicked
How it should have come from the factory!
|
:ohsnap:
|
That thinking is wicked, NICE WORK!
|
Clean and Subtle
Love the new body lines and door skins! Very tasteful mods indeed!
The front wheel arch combined with the lines will leave people scratching their heads for sure! And I personally love that kind of stuff... when you know something's been changed but the execution is so good you can't put your finger on it. Can't wait to see all the metal work on this one finished! :thumbsup: |
sweet
|
Nice work!
|
Just make sure the 01 gets put back on the door.
|
Looks great! I like the front wheels pushed forward. Great move on your part! I think it will balance out the car better!

Hood Fab... .090 Alloy keeping with the theme we are removing the pockets for a cleaner look. It will also have a Max Wedge inspired hood scoop.

Wow... speachless.
|
Crazy good

Thanks for all the compliments guys.....I have been so busy the past year I havent been able to find much time to post any of our builds. I plan to make some time so everyone can check out what we are working on. We are also building a pretty cool first gen fire bird you guys will probably like. I will try to get that up fairly soon.

Car is going to look incredible when it's complete
|
Agreed!
|
You know...it amazes me how some guys know how 2 do this stuff. It actually amazes me to see someone take flat, sheet metal and voila....it's now a sweet, custom hood, bumper, lower valance, etc. :king: :king:
|
Wow, simply outstanding work! I like the relocation of the front wheels, I never thought of that on the Chargers until it was brought up here. I've always noticed it more on the 50's Ford pickups.
|
BBT FAB.......is the name to remember!:G-Dub:
|
I cheated
I found some more recent photos on instagram.
Killer! |
I don't have much time to click on build threads, but glad I did on this. Awesome work guys!
