awesome, well enjoy your new ride, it looks badass. I just picked this beauty up, needs some work, but it will be my next pro-touring project. Oh and it's #'s matching.

Matt,

Very cool. Nice choice. Because it is a numbers car do you plan to keep your mods to a minimum?

yes, to a minimum. Thinking of pulling the engine/tranny out and putting it in storage. Id like to put a twin turbo setup in it. but here is my major debate--

1) I want a Tremec 5 speed

2) I want to mini-tub it

Im going for this look/stance--



do you think either of the above mods would kill its value?

Default Value

Matt,
Cut a 69 Charge 500? They built less than 500 of those cars, they are more Daytonas than 500s I think the Mopar guy's might not be to happy to see 1 made better than stock, but then again most of then are stuck in the '70s.
But if you decide not to cut it up the 500 I've got a line on a real nice 69 383 2 barrel Charger.
All that said yes changing a 69 500 will kill its value or limit who would want to buy it, but it is your car have fun with it, enjoy.

Kevin

yea, I guess I needed to hear it from someone else. All ill do I guess is yank the motor and tranny, rebuild it to be fairly stout, and leave it alone and cruise it.

Default Charger 500

Matt,
You can do bolt on's like tires, wheels, brakes and suspension upgrades that will improve the car's performance without cutting. I know that you can fit 295/35/18's in the rear fenders on 10" wheels with a little work (rear spring relocation). Personally I dig 500's and would like to someone build one out.
