750-h2

Bought the 1970 V code Challenger in pieces in 1989. With life happening it was put on the back burner for several years. Now 30 years later and its almost done! :woohoo: Still need the windshield and back window installed, rear bumper and correct PCV hose for booster and PCV valve. I restored everything myself including all the metal work, the body was then sent out to Project X Automotive Restorations in southern Ontario where the owner Terry Dyck dialed in the body and paint. Allan Gallant hooked me up with a windshield and rear bumper core which I will be getting this weekend.  Here are some pics, I only have a cheap camera so the pictures are not that great. In person everything looks a lot crisper and a little darker in colour.

Wow, stunningly beautiful!  The quality of the restoration is very evident. 

This leaves us with only one question.......... strictly a trailer queen or will the 440 get out to play?

Very nice!
Good thing about cars is they will wait as long as we need.
Have had mine since 84. Still not done...
Life is to be viewed thru the windshield. Not rear view mirror.
