Opinions on Build/whats the best way to piss E body people off
Howdy all
So I have a '70 challenger shell, (rusty all over) and am thinking on how I want to build her. Being a body man who restores mopars I know exactly what it would take to make this car nice again, but thats NOT how I want to build this one!!!
I just recently figured out how to get a title so I decided what the heck lets throw something together that is fun and if it get damaged who cares!
Obviously safety is paramount but I am thinking an 80's look would be killer.
so here is what I am thinking
DP90 flat black
flip shackles - sitten high in back
8 3/4 with 4:10s
440 slightly built but with 80's performance parts
A833
slots all the way around or just slots in back with steeies in front
No interior
2 buckets with harnesses
roll cage? maybe....
subframe connectors
cracked dash with aftermarket old school gauges like sunpros or something
Disk brakes up front
stiffen up the chassis a lot
hand made 1/4 patches, I am a body man so they would look great just be cheaper then ordering 1/4s
old light lenses
pitted chrome on bumpers or painted bumpers....
8 track with cheap 6x9s with some zepplin, zztop, floyd, yes, who, and
cb with whip
side pipes
whatever else I round up
I think you guys get the idea
What do you think? what would you do differently?
Keep in mind I might be getting a convert '70 challenger /6 and I would be doing a very nice resto on that one
This hard top is simply a fun car...
