Hi everyone, I have had several Dodges in my life, my first car was a 1966 Dodge Phoenix (a Fury in the US). Followed up that with a 1965 Plymouth Sport Fury, a 1970 Sport Fury and now I have nearly finished a restomod of a 1974 Challenger in F8 green. We replaced both rear quarters and the lower radiator support but there was no rust, just bends and dents. It was a 318/904 car, now a 440/727 with a twist.
It is stroked to 493 with a 4.15in crank, 4 bolt mains, 11.7/1 comp, a 255/263 degree solid roller cam, Indy cross ram intake and -1 heads with T&D rocker gear. We modded an air cleaner to fit the Indy manifold, the lid will be gloss black to match the hood as it hangs out about 50mm above.

Some more pics, a very crowded engine bay, the stripe took us 5 hours one night to mask up, I disassembled the leaf springs and cleaned/painted them before reassembly, that was a PITA and dangerous with only a bench vise and screw clamps to reassemble them.
