We started the teardown prepwork. Heated and freed the hubs from the brakes. Daisy Duke was there supervising. Rolled the project car off the trialer onto the carport awning.

We removed the front and rear seats. Vacuumed out the decrepid interior. Took the torch to the rotten floor panels. If unused will probably post the 4-Speed Shifter Tunnel Hump on eBay.

Found a near perfect salvage 2008 Charger SRT8 on eBay.
It *should* be here later this week via a shipper on uShip.

More than likely the 2008 Bodyhull (with title), Interior, Rims and leftovers will be resold.
The sticker says it was a Department of Defense car ... photo or it never happened right?

Here is a quick snap shot via the cell phone of the 1969 and 2008 clusters for comparison.
With a few mods the MPH & RPM will work - the other four gauges can be aftermarket.

Great so far. That Charger was built only 1909 cars after my 69 Charger 383 car! Can't wait to see how it turns out with the conversion!
