Talking 68 Charger...about 70% done.

Well, it's been 11 years and finally coming down to the wire. My #'s matching R/T (heh, not anymore!!) is being restomodded because stock is boring. It's got all of the goodies and I'm aiming for the performance of our founders (R.J. Gottlieb, Mark Steilow, Jeff Schwartz, etc.) Forgive me if I've mispelled. Anyway, thanks for the ideas and opinions from all of you. I could not have done it without the expert help from this board. Congrats to Bad Penny and the others for showing a Porsche GT2 how it's done. Ya'll be cool.

Ok bigger pics coming up.

SJ9ers...all PPG 2 stage paint. I even believe the paint is called satin black. Of course the stripe and Shaker hood are gloss black and the wheels are powdercoated. I deleted the trim from the side windows but it will be powdercoated for the front and rears. I only added one coat of clear because of the non-gloss factor. Too much clear is too shiny.
