1972 Dodge Charge SE By

This is my 1972 DODGE
CHARGER SE, I have owned the car since December 1994,the first time
i saw the car (just before i handed over the cash for it!) I was amazed
at the shear size of it, and 3 years ago started the job of restoring
it, when I bought it the car it was Daytona yellow with crager chrome
wheels, after 6 years of trouble free cruising the body work was showing
some signs of a need of repair, I stripped the car back to bare metal
including boot, inner doors, and engine bay, I repaired some of the rust
areas myself by making patch panels, and the panels I couldn't make I
got from yearone, while the car was at the body shop, I had the front
and rear bumpers, door mirrors rechromed, a massive order to yearone was
put in for new parts, one being a set of ralley wheels, ebay, and the
mopar muscle association UK was the source of other parts i needed to
bring the car back to near new condition, the numbers matching 400 block
had been in my garden for 5 years with weeds and all sorts of garden
creatures growing through it, after many hours cleaning it, it had a +30
rebore, keith black pistons, and a mild elderbrook cam, the four barrel
thermoquad carb was overhauled, the engine was rebuilt and sprayed the
original powder blue, I spent many hours stripping and
repainting all engine components. Now the car is finished I love the new
look, this was the vision I had in my head when I started the
restoration, you cant put a price on that. "happy moparin". |
