My 1970 Dodge CHallenger in its Current Condition • The Dodge Challenger Message Board

My car needs a paint job, new wheels, some chrome in a few spots, and some minor welding on the outside. On the inside all it really needs is new headliner, and new seat covers in the front. The car is horrible electrically that has to be completely redone. The only gauge that works is the speedometer. I will post updates as they occur.

Thanks for looking,
CHris

It looks all there though. A good base to start from. Good luck with it and we look forward to seeing more photos as work progresses.

I think that looks awesome. I would say leave it like that but annoyingly I think primer is actually pourous and water will seep through to the paint.

I used to drive a car (not a Challenger) that looked a bit like this, except it was rust instead of primer. It was hand painted white, looked as tatty and anything but I loved it because it wasn't pretending to be shiny.

That Challenger looks so awesome. Good luck with it.

Thanks. I should be getting it painted within the next month or so. I plan to paint it "Go Mango Orange" or "Vitamin C". I have the R/T hood decal, I plan on putting that on as soon as its painted. I also have the correct silver paint for the wheels so the wheels will be silver and not the ugly white.

I will post those pictures as soon as they occur.
