it was a few years ago and im struggling to remember

i think it was bodyshell to chassis fit, and the wheels fitting properly for some reason

i will see if i can find the build thread on the forum i did it on to see if i can refresh my memory

Oh, this takes a little piece of my heart I had a 1968 Doge Charger as a young man (only one with four round lights as tail lights) We built out (my brother and I) God rest his soul, the 440 cu.in Hemi engine to 600 cu.in with an Edelbrock tunnel ram intake, a Holley 800cfm carberator, a Crane full ratio cam, ladder bars, sway bars, wheelie casters, Muncie power drive two speed line lock tranny, and a locked differential 513 Dana rear....WOW! it flew past everything but the petrol station
Came one morning to the family garage and found it stolen Went to the nearest park after reporting theft to police (who by the way never found car) to commiserate with some pals when I met for the very first time my Colleen walking the family mutt......The theft of that car was the best thing that ever happened to me though one would have been hard pressed indeed to convince me of that at the time!........Jim

That's why American roads are so straight! a sharp corner takes about a week in a muscle car

that sounds like a real beast, of a thing,my brother was into working cars and bike,and had that need for speed as well,
oh what a shame it wen,t missing,

ta Bob,I,like most of the movies,and there is a new one coming out as well,ta for the well wishers,

 

[monica]

so happy tht new year,clocked over,able to make a start on this,been itching too,
bags opened,and spurs lay out, quite a bit of plastic with this one,
will be making a start on the engine,and sub-assembly,

 

[monica]

well made a start with some of the sub-assembly,and engine,will be going for a red one,as that seams to be
one of the colors,other than orange, maybe not right,
found some pics of the interior of him car ,so will be working off them,

 

[monica]

well more of an update with this build,its a very easy straight forward build,no fit problems.
have a few sub-assembly,on the way,can see one bit of the fit what may be a bit hard,to assemble,
is were the floor pan,with the fire wall to the engine bay go.s together,maybe a little tricky,as I have only
tact it together,at the moment,so maybe better to put in ,in two parts,then join,
started to add some color,from what I do see,from pic,s all the suspension is black,which I,like,so only
real the brake disco,s are aluminum,and the rack and steering bars are black also,
have done the engine in red,as it wont even be seen,once the hoods,on,
well its about 11.30 am when MrVamp moved in on my seat,so time for a wee kip I,say,

 

[Guest]

Looking good Moni
