Ok...Here we are Day 19....Remember..I don't work on it on the weekends and I work shift work at my other job, so time is limitied every other week ... Since the last update, I mounted the rad and added anti-freeze only to find a leaky (cracked) thermostat housing. I installed all the side windows... The clutch linkage The shifter/rods The exhaust and at last the drivershaft.... All week I've been restoring the original rusted driveshaft because I couldn't find a better one. I like the results...

I believe Alan said that the undercoating will go on last, or at least later on in the process.

My brother in law had a V code 70 Challenger R/T SE,and it had one,when he wrecked the car in 1977,he gave me the exhaust system. It may have been a replacement system,but it wasn't aftermarket,it might have been a Walker OEM replacement.

With all that work, couldn't you just leave the undercoating off? I know this is a purist resto, but it seems a shame to spray that crap on the car - especially when the car will probably never be driven much anyway. Someeone could always spray that stuff on in the future if they really wanted it.
you must spray it in,or you will have little dents pop up thru the fender(from stones) and will show on top of the fender,I always lay on heavy there just to make sure the fender is protected

I did manage to get the tail panel black-out done, the stainless trim polished and I'm still working on the taillights. Gaskets will be 71T/A's FOR SURE

Here's where the expensive over-priced NOS parts start to shine.... All the emblems on the car are correct NOS pieces and not repros
