Welcome to my page, Still under some construction.

The picture you see above is what the challenger looks like today.

But this was not no, paint job and rims.

This project required extensive repair to the rust damage and holes.

So I'm going to try to find all the pictures of the build from the past, to the present.

Ol' Chall...

We got the car in keswick, ontario. Well the colour was coppery gold, with a black hood, and white interior. When we bought the car the owner had told us that it had 340. That he installed himself. Turned out the only thing he installed was a 340 emblem and a 340 sticker on the air cleaner. We didnt find this out till we pulled the block. And only to find it was a 318.

So we took our earnings from court. And got a 360 instead. it came with a 4 barrel holley carb. And elderbrock manifold. Got it out of an old charger.

Heres a picture of the block itself

Fresh Paint
When we got the car back, had alittle work to be done. Install the bumpers and trim. But we we're really stumped for a while, cause we couldnt figure out why the lights were so dull. Well as it turns out, the dumbass that had it before us painted the inside of the tail lights. :0 lol
