Alright guys carlisle is approaching fast! I cant believe it at all. We will have the car there no matter what so stop by and say hello and tell us who you are so we know. It will not be hard to miss. It will most likely be the only car there in primer in the young guns class! But anyways here is some more updates on the car. Its hard to get them online since im extremely busy but these are a few days old... First task was to find a front valance. A trip to mopar marty's salvage yard and we found one. Rough but nothing we cant use! Here it is after being straitened out... Then stripped and mudded up... Leaded up all four corners of the roof! Its not too hard once you get the balance of heat right... Then threw some skim coats over to get out minor imperfections... Took apart the front suspensions too and will blast, paint and rebuild... So who all is going to stop by and say hello at carlisle?

Hey you guys are doing a great job, Im 16 and currently workin on a 74 charger and was wondering if you had any driver side floor pans that would fit or know of a place where I could get one cheap (Im low on money). If you could let me know that would be great. The only junkyard that has mopars here, likes to take all the parts from them and leave nothing. He is a big mopar guy. So I was wondering if you can help, if not thats fine. Thanks, and good luck on your two cars.

The front section, right where the pedals are and right behind the drivers seat, where the rear passenger's feet would be. Those two spots are completly gone. I've been workin day and night on the 1/4's and trunk, and finally got those done and now workin on the floor. My passenger side is like new, which is good. By the way your car is lookin' good! Thanks, Nick
