Almost 2 years ago i traded in my BMW for a 73 number matching Challenger with some work.
I let a friens of mine who's a mechanic check the car and found out that 2 cilinders have low compression issues. After consideration i decided to first fix the engine before starting on the other things i would like to restore. It quickly become clear that i want a perfect engine so a total revision became the outcome. The engine is removed and checked as we speak, the complete engine get's checked and machined. The block is torn apart i can instantly replace parts for better performance parts like cam, pistons, intake and carb.
Yesterday i removed the front en sides to remove surface rust and repaint the inside of all the panels and enginebay. The trans is still placed but i wanne remove it so i can redo the underbody with a new coating.
The car will get a new paintjob and a new white vinyl roof. The dash, doorpanels and pillar covers gets replaced and the seats a new upholstry.
when i was looking at colours for the new paintjob i find one with an amazing colour that i really loved. Not an original mopar colour but in my opninion really stood out. Below a couple of pictures of the car and the colour i think about doing.
