Very cool. My grandparents bought a 77 Charger new with the 360 4 bbl. Cushy ride for sure!

Thank you for the comments thus far. Here's what it looked like originally. I still have the factory steel wheels along with a set of NOS wheel covers and centers to go with the car. It does drive pretty decent. I think it needs some new shocks and I have an A/C hose leaking it looks like but, I have a spare hose. So, we'll see what happens. It does have power windows, rear defroster, cruise and tilt as well. The previous owner also already installed a CD Player. My next upgrades, I have planned are to install new shocks, Dynomax Ultraflo Mufflers and a headlight relay kit on it. The car has Cherry Bomb Turbo Mufflers but, the welds are starting to look a bit aged so I was able to score the Dynomax for a decent price. Anyways, here's what the car looked like when I got it. Some might recognize from it Carlisle.

While I like the Cherry Bomb Mufflers here is how the internals kind of work and they are kind of quiet. vs. The Ultraflos which should be a little louder and flow just a little bit better.

Thank you Bill. I was looking for a Magnum when they came along. I still prefer the Magnum styling so we'll see what happens down the road. Haven't really done any work to the car in a while. Life has gotten in the way as we all know too well.
