Welcome in Mustangboy, nice car, '72/74 are flavour of the month right now. Lets have more pics then, motor etc :mrgreen:
That bit of trim is part of the grille/light panel, look at the other side to see it. Looks a little different on your car cos someones made them chrome by the look of the pics, should be body colour :idea:

Welcome, Sweet Ride! :thumbsup: Although Ive never dealt with this company, I will be soon, one of their Challenger Go-Wing Spoilers are gonna sit on my 1973's Assend. I'll probably get the Chin Spoliers from them too. http://www.fpap.com (click the on-line catalog) Their prices arent cheap,,but they are supposedly of very high quality,,come complete with instructions, templates for any cutting that you might need to do, fasteners,, and have the original Chrysler numbers and lettering scripted on the same place as the factory units.. An Exact Factory reproduction using highest quality materials.

Here's a pic of my buds Mega-Squirt EFI InjectedTwin-Turbo 93 Stang with a 408 Stroker . I helped him build the top-end and we hope to have it running this summer or blow it up. :lol:

Nice Challenger!
I was seriously considering buying that one myself but someone else got there before me and then stuck it on ebay for £4K more. Think I needed a break from working on cars all the time anyway so the guy probably did me a favour.

If I had bought it I was going to fit the T/A hood, spoilers, and black side stripes. I love black cars with black stripes. It looks so subtle and cool. :s002:
