I started the restoration of my 1970 Dodge Challenger 383 Magnum January 16th, 1998. At this time the car was in poor condition and had been stored in a carport for a long time and there was a great deal of rust on the lower part of the car. The young fellow who had bought the car from the original owner had also removed the vinyl roof and ran out of money to do any work on the car. The car had to be brought to my garage by a car carrier as it was not running. 

    With the assistance of my body man Trev Hagerty we totally stripped the car down to a shell, had it walnut shelled, repaired the body damage and put the car back together following the fender tag and build sheet so the car now looks as it did when it came off the production line. We had most of the motor   powder coated. 

  This car brings back so many memories for some people. They are always stopping me in parking lots and want to talk about the great cars of the 70's. 

Completed the car August 20th, 1998

Sincerely, 

Harry Scaife
