I just thought I would post some more pics of my car. I have not had the chance to be around a computor for a while, and just got some pics from Jason(Gearheadsgarage)and my daughter.
It is a 68 charger, big block 383, pro-charger intercooed, blow through carb, custom semi-shorty headers, nascar style exh pass side exit, auto trans, gear vendors will be going sooner or later.
Tubular upper, and lower control arms, wilwoods all the way around, my Y design frame connectors, 1.250" torsion bars, QA1 shocks will going on soon, either hotchkis, or torsion style sway bar will going on front, and rear, mopar nascar rear leafs with lower arch, my design rack in pinion steering, 17x10 rear, 17x8 front weld zetas. Will be installing 285 tires, and 275 fronts when the car gets ready to hit the streets. Just not sure what tire I will go with yet.

I am using 90 daytona turbo Z seats for the front seats, power drivers, having rear seat made to match front, B+M billet shifter, custom guage panel with Phantom II autometer guages, stock rally wheel

BODY. I am not going to go crazy here, want to keep the factory lines with slight mods like, shaved antanna, 69 daytona front spoiler, nascar rear type spoiler, smoothed engine compartment, smoothed front valance, all hidden wires in engine compartment, LED converted rear tail lights, LED side markers, HID head lights, more then likely Marquez 69 camaro driving lights.
chrome bumpers brushed to look aluminum flush with the body.

I am sure I will do a couple of other things to it as the build comes along.
I hope you like the pics.

I just want something with enough juice to put some of these new HP cars in their place.

Nice Charger! Keep the pics and info coming please!
I like the exhaust treatment, and the motor should haul it all around very well too!
The engine compartment is looking really good.

Thanks. I think it is going to look a lot better when Jason gets all the tubing done for the supercharger+intercooler. Should be in the next week or so.

I am going to have to figure out how to tone down the exhaust. I will figure it out after I hear it with straight pipes. More then likley I will wind up putting the flowmaster dual oval race muffler on it.
