Had 11" drums mate. Conversion was bought from a well known auction website ;) $600. Real good conversion with EVERYTHING included !! Was well pleased with it. No modifying or any hassles with fitment, a nice straight fit ! Sold the car to a guy in Belgium last year though :( I do miss that car. I shouldn't have sold it, but hey....... life goes on.
Thanks for the kind comment. Always wanted a 68. Best looking of the gen 2's by far :) The name of the song is Flower, by Moby. Good luck with the Duster too :) Jules.
I rebuilt it myself. Took a month of evenings and weekends :) There is a company that sell new '69 grills now. They are Premier Plastics Reproductions in McKinney Tx. I have their details if you can't find them. Jules.
Thats the way mate !! Do it yourself if you can. Not as hard as it 1st seems as the parts do tend to fit pretty good. It was only the spray job, vinyl and headliner I paid to have done, the rest is DIY :) Good luck with yours mate.
great job,i got one im almost finished.i had to replace the roof and trunk floor and extensions,both wheel wells and quarters,rear lower valance and new hood..front floor pans..man if you guys out there do a job on these..its alot of money and i did it my self..so should you..take care.
Kick ass video. I just got a 68 Charger last fall. Best money I have ever spent. Quite simply the most bad ass yet sexy looking car ever made IMO. I also have a 1970 Duster I just recently picked up in need of some work. I'll have to make a video similar to this showing the progress. BTW, what's the name of that song?
I need some help, If you could can you send me a messege telling me the sizes and number of bolts that hold the front fenders, doors, and hood on? When we started to put my car back together we notice that most of the bolts we gone to begin with.
Yes, I'm in the UK. All parts are available from the USA. Look on ebag USA. It's all on there!! ;) Good luck with your hunt. Just make sure the chassis rails and bulk head are ok, everything else you can deal with.
Did you Buy a New grill or have it rebuilt, i have a 69 and id like to eaither get a new whole grill or something, just wondering what you did and where you went.
STOP !! Just did a search for them myself, and there's loads of reports of them being scammers. Good job I never used them. Phew. Sorry, just seen it myself !!

@Chevelletastic . No, we took the easy way out and bought the repair panels. Rust wasn't as bad as it looked (thru my eyes) :)
Nice disc brake conversion . Did it have drums on the front before or the troublsome 4 piston caliper disc brake set up?. (allways leaky)
Beautiful work clean one of my favorites but that yellow to loud for me looks good

New patch panels for quarters, and new rear panel. They are reproduced in the USA. Just buy and fit them ;)

That is a nice car

Your car looks way too nice, so nice it's sickening. GIVE IT TO MEH! :(
Jokes aside, brilliant restoration.
It's 'Flower' by Moby.
Around a year of evenings and weekends, and approx 5 grand sterling.
You'll be looking at probably $7000? for a cheap 1 to restore. ALL parts are easily available from rear fenders to switches. Everything ;)
Yes have a B Beer!!
for how mush you sold it ?
Absolute bargain if you ask me!
275/70/15 tyres in 9j rims. can't remember what the offset is tho sorry.
You're probably better off asking on a Mopar forum. I sold this nearly 18 months ago, sorry :(
Local Mopar guy.
1:19---How is possible to fix this?1:28 and this?
@jules2310 Thanks jules are you in the uk and also where do you get the parts from
Interesting....I didn´t know it can be like that?T thought you must make parts like these your self.1:19 - 1:28.
STOP !! Just did a search for them myself, and there's loads of reports of them being scammers. Good job I never used them. Phew. Sorry, just seen it myself !!
Coz it's a real "in yer face" colour. The pics of the colour don't do it justice, it's a real "YELLOW" and not just a banana yellow, or such like.
Approx 5k
Oh man that sucks, Thanks anyway
I own a `68 Charger. Best muscle car ever built. Period. SEX ON WHEELS!!!!
Lose that rotten music just ruins the video
