Hi, my name is David Clinkscales. Thanks for having me, picked up this 70 Top Banana Dodge Challenger 440 6 BBL, Track Pack 4 Speed car. It came as a completely rebuilt car. However as usual some of these sellers exaggerate a tad. Just rebuilt the rear end, Transmission, steering box and linkage. Took off the headers and put the original exhaust manifold and exhaust on. I redid the original rims, center caps and found some really decent original beauty rings. Want it to look period correct. Waiting for my tires to get here, they shipped. Can’t wait to get her back up and running on the road.

I hate seeing yellow behind the grille , headlights & opening between the front valence & bumper . I would also black the top of the cowl .
I actually prefer the 17 " wheels & tires .Far better tires are available in 17"

Great suggestions, I will look into it. The wheels on the pics are 17” year one wheels. I’m going back to the original 15”s it had on from the factory.

The Hood support , around the headlights & beside the rad & the lower rad support should be painted black to hide it .

No that is the previous owner. He put the car together just in time for the Mopar Nationals where they had him drive it up to the main tent to have it on display. He was very sick at the time with Cancer. He has unfortunatly since passed away
