The backing plate was filled in with a piece of same thickness steel and re-drilled to the correct dia to fit this application.

Here is a pic of the nbracket from the Charger and how we cut it so it would work

Looking great Darius, you still planning on going with the B5 blue?

Here is my "motivation" picture

Slow down your making me look bad.

sent you a pm Darius

Car looks great. I have know Bill for years and he is a great guy. I have a Alterkation and I am building a 4 bar rear.

Well guys & Gals, I have been slowed on car progress by the economy....suprise, suprise.
i have had to lay off all of my employees but one which means my partner and I are back in the field building kitchens and baths.
There is some progress happening and I may be able to get some pics this week,of the stainless exhaust system. it is looking good with quick disconnects for easy maint. The way the pipes go THROUGH the cross frame rail is VERY cool!
Furstrating that now when The only real big expense left is paint and upholstry I don't have the time to go work on it!

Finally got some time to work on the car again. I'll post pics in the morning of the 07 Charger dash assembly and console in the 70 GTX.

I got the entire dash assembly installed in my GTX.
It was almost as if the engineers for the new LX Charger was thinking "somebody might want to put this in an old B Body" when they designed it, the fitr was that close.
I even got the HVAC box to fit in very nicely, grtting the duct work installed will be a challenge but it is doable.
I realize many of you may not care for this "mod" but it is what I want and I am happy with it so far.
For lots more pics than this site will allow go to

Here is the subframe installed with the HVAC box behind it

It is looking real good Darius, I for one love resto mods so please continue!

Wow, I'm impressed!
I'm guessing you will have almost ALL the creature comforts of the donor car, not JUST the engine.
I'm a little bit of an "old school" guy usually, but I sure want to see how your car turns out.

Suprise!
I finally got some time in. I have a more complete pic post on bbodies only 66-70 forum called "b body stiffening"
Here is a pic of the brake pedal/linkage and you can also see how I fit the steering column using the original column mount bracket

I got the steering linkage done finally. I figure all told I have appx 30 hours in messing with this part of the swap. A lot of in-and-outs and mock ups to make sure it would be just right before fabbing up the mounts for the Heim joints. This will take a few separate posts.
This first one is the end of the Alterktion frame. I added appx 2" and mounted the lower Heim joint there plus capped off the end so crap won't collect in there.

Here is the bracket I fabbed up

Here it is installed with the end cap welded on. I just tacked this in , I will finish welding when we take the engine out for paint
