I drive the crap out of all of mine. A couple from the last few cruise in nights. My red Charger in the middle.
My red Challenger was even one of this year's cars that made the Woodward Dream cruise shirts and posters.
My new batteries I just buy whatever is on sale and convert them to look like a factory batteries.
For my used batteries once my old repro batteries give up i gut them and hide the lightweight racing batteries inside of them.
I do the same to my new batteries. (First 3 pics are the same battery).
On my old resto batteries, I hide the lightweight racing batteries inside them.
I have never used any of those battery tenders in my life. I don't trust them. Charging overnight or all the time is known for burning down too many vehicles, garages or barns to the ground. I just disconnect all my batteries when the vehicles are not in use and never been a problem. Vehicles...

I have these two different wheels in my Challengers. I never wanted the rim blow option wheel for the reasons mentioned already thinking that I would be hinking it all the time on accident, especially with manual steering.
Welcome from another in Michigan. Just be patient and take people with you that know more about to what to look feel and listen for. They are out there. I picked up my red 70 R/T S.E. less than a year ago for way less than they are going for these days.
I am looking for the following parts for a 1970 Challenger R/T S.E.
-Pair of rocker mouldings.
-Rear tail panel above taillights.
-outer dash speaker mounts for dash.
-AM/FM roller wheel radio, or 8 track preferred.
-dash radio fader black knob.
-6 way seat tracks and floor supports...
