The Dodge Challenger Message Board

Hi guys , I thought I would show you some of my progress. The paint is B5 Blue, It turned out good with a few minor spots to fix after i get it all back together. They didn't put clear over the blue in the trunk and they didnt paint the floor in the car. I was going to use POR 15 on the floor, Would you leave the trunk alone or paint it black or get them to put clear over it? There is also a few pictures of the new motor i bought, Its a 67 440 bored 30 over with 6 pack rods, purple shaft cam 508 lift, 906 heads with all new valves, and an 850 Holley carb. The 383 i had needed to be bored out and overall too much to be done to it.

It's sweet. I love the fact that you choose wisely on the powerplant. 440's make sick torque. You have the best heads. Closed chambered 67's are highly desired. It will be a fun ride and look tough. The idle will draw attention, but sound mean.

Jaw dropping paint job man.

next to black that color blue is one of my favorites,is that b5 blue or close to it?

Awesome!!!!!!!

Thanks guys. I dont Know if it is exactly B5 but its very close, I think they matched it since it didnt come in that type of paint.

Sweeet! Looks fantastic...

That is beautiful I think you will busy the next few months. It sure will be worth it. Nice job

looks great cant wait to see it all back together as for the inside of the trunk i guess it depends on how fussy you are it looks ok in the pics & its usually shut anyway but if you want it real nice it would look better with a shine than in black as its already base coated thats just my opinion for what its worth
cheers ian

I agree, a nice coat of clear over that base coat will make it look great.

Looks awesome
