    Then I got the engine bay painted! The front suspension has been put back in for the final time. Now it has been wet sanding fun to get it all prepped for paint.

    Sorry for not posting in a while. I have been pretty busy since SEMA. The car is coming along nicely though. The Ididit column was mocked up. After blasting it became apparent that the front driver floor needed replaced, so that was done. The bodywork has all gotten done and then bottom and...

    I did have to cut into the frame rail a little to make room. If you do it just reinforce it well!

    1970 Challenger pro touring rebuild

    The door shells were stripped of the old skin, blasted and new skins put on. I then installed the new front fenders, decklid and shaker hood to see how it all lined up. Looked pretty good so the wheel tubs, trunk extensions and quarters were welded on. It's starting to look like a car again!

    1970 Challenger pro touring rebuild

    The stock rear interior panels fit without any modification. The rear seat frame needs a little trimming to make it fit. The trunk hinge supports needed modified to fit the wider tubs. We are still retaining a little of the factory look with the modifications.

    1970 Challenger pro touring rebuild

    This is where the modifications start! We decided to widen the wheel tubs 2 inches to give room for some big rear tires. This mod has opened up a can of worms but I am tackling each problem as it presents itself.

    New inner front fender were installed and rust in the side of the cowl was patched. The cowl rust was about the same on both sides but my picture of the driver side sucks!

    1970 Challenger pro touring rebuild

    The inner bracing for the quarter windows had been cut out by a previous owner. I installed donor patches that weren't quite complete so I had to make the missing pieces. The rear window had rust all around so while waiting on parts I patched that and a hole cut in the inner structure of the door.

    1970 Challenger pro touring rebuild

    I started by cutting out the bad. The fender lips had been cut by someone who thought this should be a race car. There was also a little rust involved.

    1970 Challenger pro touring rebuild

    This is a pretty rough 70 Challenger R/T that I am rebuilding for my number one customer. When I arrived it was mostly torn apart and bolted to a rotisserie. He had some of the parts and we have been ordering more, alot more. It was an original 383 car but the original engine, transmission...
