This is my 1974 Dodge Challenger. I found this car sitting in a farmers field.It has been parked there since 1993 and on the property since 1988. Believe it or not, the frame and most of the body is in fairly good shape considering the circumstances. The Original colour is red and the engine is a 318. It has 119000 original KM's. I am going to rebuild the entire engine.Also, This car will be torn down right to the frame. The intention is to restore this car to its original state.She's a little rough right now, but hopefully with a little TLC, she will be like new.
This is what it looked like when I found it. Looking pretty rough, and in some need of a major restoration.





Bringing the Car Home


After Day # 1 - Doors off and complete interior out.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions or where I can find parts and websites.


Here are a few updated pictures, the entire front end has been removed, the fenders, grill, bumper and soon the 318 engine will be pulled and the body work will begin. If anyone knows where a good place to buy a vinyl top is, please let me know.

Well, The Motor has been pulled and is it the process of being rebuilt. It is going to remain with the 318 engine. However it will be dressed up with some chrome upgrades and maybe some headers.

The repairs have started. New Inner Fenders have been ordered. New Upper and lower ball joints are on. New brakes in the works. The firewall has been sand blasted and new sheet metal applied. More updated pics to come.
Here is the firewall sand blasted, new sheet metal and primer applied. Looks alot different then when I started.
