So, here is my project SE challe, and i hope i can get her on the road near future.

She got 440+727 and 8 3/4 rear. :s024:

Awesome project you got there! What are the plans for the car?

by **challe70** » 25 Apr 2009 10:14

I think, i will put some R/T stuff on her, rallye cluster, rear valance panel that have exhaust outlet etc. And ofcouse rallye hood. And for engine, some ported indy heads and little bit tighter cam, than she now have.

I think, it would be cool to keep her sleeper, without any R/T embles etc. Like a wolf on sheeps clothes. :s003:

Sounds like very good plans, a real streetmachine! :thumbsup:

Have you decided colour for her yet? =)

by **challe70** » 25 Apr 2009 11:14

trible black would be cool or then green with black vinyl top, as she was new.

Fendertag is that for colour compo. And she has also black longitudinal stripes, thats also in fendertag.

Not bad at all, no rust to talk about?
Like the idea of triple black!

cool car thatll keep you busy for a while , what are its original specs i.e. colour engine trim etc
cheers ian

by **challe70** » 26 Apr 2009 2:54

only in trunk floor, as usual for challengers.

But seller got new one, i get it with challe.

Yes, i think triple blac looks good for her.

by **challe70** » 26 Apr 2009 3:03

Colour was green, FF5 on fendertag, with black vinyl top. And black longitutional stripes. And factory engine was 318 with 904 automatic.

by **challe70** » 10 Aug 2009 5:19

At last, get her home last weekend.

So, now i can start to get her on the road next summer.

by **challe70** » 10 Aug 2009 5:21

One more pic for you.

by **challe70** » 10 Aug 2009 5:24

The colour was red in new, FE5 says the fendertag. Other specs for her was right in my recent posts.

Yes i will.

It's long gold winter here in northern europe, so it's plenty of time to next summer.

Besides, there is minor rust in her body, so there is almost no bodywork for her.

And engine has rebuild already in states, so there is no need to open her engine yet in next winter.

That 500hp in rears will long term goal to me, now it's most important to get her road again.

I remember that Chally ad! It was poorly painted with flat black pimer(door jam's and gap's were still red.I like'd the dog dish hubcaps, there cool.Hope You keep them and don't put some stupid 22s under it.

Thanks.

No, i don't put any stupid new billet wheels or any kind of that. Those hubcaps are cool, or other choice can be some 15s rallyes.

I get her finally home in Estonia in august, and next i have get her on road to next summer.

How's it going?

Hi, progress is going on, slowly but sure. :mrgreen:

She will be on road atleast in 2011, because i desided to do everythink right in first time.

So, it takes little longer time, but think it's worth of that.

It's been snowy and cold winter in Finland, it has slower my project, because i haven't warm place for her in this winter.

But now, when weather is warmer, it's easier to start with her, and next winter i get her better place, so i can finish with her also in next winter.

It's lucky, that she needs minor bodywork, becides that trunk floor.

Do you live far from Luleå, Haparanda/Tornio? =)

If you get her done to 2011 i think you have done a great job! =) Specially with no heat in your garage! Our winters is not to play with..

Have a nice day & Keep the spirit, thumbs up!

by **challe70** » 04 Oct 2011 8:15

Over a year has passing by, and it's time to start this project again. :mrgreen:

I moved back here in eastern Finland, and now it's much much easier to do, when it'snt over 300 miles between me and her. :lol:

I am sooooo happy, that i dont need to sell her in last winter. :crazy:
