Taking the car to the blaster









Hmmm.







OK, truth be told, a tree had fallen over the trink lid crushing the rear 1/4's. Previous owner had a shop weld top half of a 1/4 to the lower part. Note the seam weld from iside the trunk space. That won't work for me so...

Beautiful job!!! Im curious Is this car a real RT? In your unrestored photo I see the car had a non rally dash and I always thought the Rally dash with the tach was standard on RT's. I see now that you put the correct dash in.
Nice color to boot!

Rallye dash was not standard on any of the E-bodies. Chrsyler Corp was cheap back then (and now). You had to order and pay for any option you got. You see a lot of hemicudas with the standard dash. I guess a lot of people spent their limited resources on the drivetrain purchase knowing thy were probably going to buy a set of aftermarket gauges anyway.
