PasiR, I recognize your car. Me and my friend went to see it back in 2005, when previous owner was selling it in Tuusula. It was blue back then. My friend considered very seriously about buying the car, but the time wasn´t quite right for it. We have wondered a couple of times what happened to that car and where it went, so maybe you could tell us now  Any idea when the car will be ready? Is the hemi going in?
I bought it -06 w/o engine and trans. I took the body to bare metal, now FE5. Undercarriage is still black. I have alum. 572 waiting installation...

I am currently tubbing a '73 for someone on leaf springs. Its a long story, anyhow, even mini-tubed with the leafs under the stock rails you can get a huge tire and wheel in there. Just put another shortend rear housing and axles in it and have the look for a fraction of the cost in my opinion. The car i am currently doing had something like 29x15.5" on 15x15 wheels but with something like 7.5" BS---just with the springs moved in and stock tubs widend.
Now its getting a similar tire and the wheel size is still the same but with 4.5" BS to get that real Pro Street look. I am moving the rails and spings in even farther so the tires can be tucked in some so it doesn't have the jacked 70's look that it had before.
Outcast Dodge guy.

PasiR,How did you attach the outer part of the wheelhouse to the quarter panel?Does it use the original wheel opening flange with a fabricated outer wheelhouse wall?I have a '74 Charger with the springs moved into the frame rails and thought about using the oe attach point vs direct to the quarter.My Charger is originally FE5 red too!The finish work on your car looks incredible!Nice work.

They are made by previous owner in early 80s. Nothing original there and welded directly to the quarter.

Not to hi-jack here, but this was for sale a few months ago on here. Did anyone here buy it? I'd love to see more pics of it, but this was all the ad had.
