My '71 R/T.....

Boy that is one SHARP R/T.  Absolutely beautiful.  AND power windows and factory A/C???  You've got a rare car there.  Excellent job.  :2thumbs:


Thanks guys!
Yeah it's a pretty heavily optioned car; Cruise, Air Conditioning, Power windows, Power disc (front) brakes, AM/FM radio, Cassette player, Console shifted Automatic, Six way adjustable seat, White interior and Stripe delete.

While its not a charger, I didn't think it would be appropriate to post the progress on the resto of my Dad's 69 GTX vert on here so I did a start to finish thread over on here.

Well l'm new here But l just bought a 69 charger supposedly all matching #s after l figure out how to post pictures l'll post pictures of ven# and fender tag. l also found the build sheet under the sheet where it is suppose to be.  l just don't know how to get it out of there without tearing it. l don't plan on reupholstering it at this time so undoing the hog hoops is out of the question. Any ideas for me guys.

Photographing it in place beforehand might be a good idea ?
Get some help, and then all we did was lift the hog hoops with one hand each, while pressing the fabric backing down, and gently move the B-Sheet out.

Welcome and Congrats on the Charger :2thumbs:
Only wimps wear Bowties !
