Larry & Don, thank you! This is absolutely the finest GenII Charger build out there, bar none. I have to comment on your wheels. Your "template" was always a good looking wheel, and you have done a masterful job of turning a wheel cover into a wheel. They're stunningly perfect. Outstanding! I’m not sure about your first statement, but thank you sir! Pat

I received a note from a member on the Pro Touring forum. He said he has been following my charger build thread and that it was his favorite thing on the Internet, well almost! He says it hurts his feelings every time he opens an update on the Charger and sees the tires I’m using on the car. It turns out he works for Michelin North America. He said they would like to give me a set of their tires because I’m building exactly the level of vehicle and build that they want to be associated with. Needless to say I said YES! So cool that a large corporation like Michelin would think that my home built project car is worthy of their attention. The rear wheel (335/35-17 Michelin Pilot Sports) showed up today and I should see the front wheels (275/40-17) soon. This is very cool, I am very honored, and I will pay it forward!! Thank you Michelin!! Pat

Since you want to pay it forward, does this mean you will give me the car and keep the older tires?

Tedious indeed, but fun. I put hours and hours into prepping/painting the grille I got for my car. Someone had probably 4 coats of black, brushed on( ) house paint on there I had to meticulously scrape off before I could do anything. I only put the effort in because it was basically free, and I really wanted a 70-71 style grille to replace my 72 grille. Thanks for the update! Looks great I’ve been jones’n

are those LED head lights? Wondering what you did to get them to sit in the buckets? Reason I ask is we just did a 72 GMC that the customer bought all 4 LED headlights to the tune of over a grand. They don't sit in the buckets worth a crap.

They don't sit in the buckets worth a crap. Yes LED lights by Delta. Click on the link below and you can see that I had to open up the hole in the buckets to fit the new lights.

Would you happen to have any part numbers?
I saw in your facebook link where you bought them, but I'm not 100% clear on what you bought.
I'm looking at #'s 15093 and 15094. Are these what you used?
Thanks!
John
