Very nice original '69 Charger that has not been turned into a general lee! two thumbs up Appears to be F8 in color?
Thanks for the thumbs up! Hehe, no General Lee for this guy( "Not that there's anything wrong with that"). Yes F8 Green, got the fender tag, broadcast sheet, and part of the window sticker,too. Also alot of the old registration slips, and oil change stickers,and stuff.
I agree 100%, nothing wrong with that at all. It's just really overdone.

This picture and shot of your garage reminds me of the remake of Vanishing Point where the offericer is putting on the mirror to his black 68 R/T.
The one cop says to the other one we're taking the Charger. "Yeah son you think we going to catch a Mopar in a dog pie chevy, it takes a Mopar to catch a Mopar"
I love that line....
Great looking car very nice and love the dog dish caps always a favorite on Mopars.

I made a boo boo, when I put the 4 bbl intake on, the paint is the wrong Chrysler blue ...it looked good when wet, but as it dried I could tell it was wrong. Anyway, I did the valve covers at the same time after fixing a horrible oil leak, because someone had painted them flat black, and I couldn't leave them like that. So it's kinda brutal under the hood, so be for warned. I'll try to get some from underneath...there are some cool markings on the rear end... Here's a before shot...fithy with black valve covers...

Thanks for that. I dug up a couple of pics of a Charger I had back in the mid 90's. It was nearly identical to the current Charger,same green int, buckets with buddy seat, column shift. It had a black vinyl top added and had a 440 instead of original 318. Car was a blast, went on some long road trips with it. So When I found this car, it brought back alot of memories, so I just had to get it!

I liked the Centerlines with the huge rear tires that fit without sticking out. 50's on 10" rims!
