Agreeeee with everything Tom stated. Love that you found this car and it looks very nice. I know you'll have fun working and driving it.

Welcome aboard 19charger74! Opinions on this will be like belly buttons....everybodies got one. For me, a car that looks that original, I'd keep it as close to stock as possible. Make a few performance mods as can be hidden or are reasonable (alum. intake painted engine color, HP exhaust manifolds, factory style duals and tips, maybe a mild cam, some nice wheels and tires, stereo, and leave the rest alone (or refurbish it).

. Clearly it was painted once. I am not sure if the body guard moulding was stock, but the emblems were put on incorrectly. The front one is missing and I can only imagine what the rear ones look like. But those I would fix in a jiffy for sure.

While my initial suggestions were extensive and expensive.... The car looks like it would clean up into a real nice driver, with minimal additional $$$ required.
There is definitely something to be said for a reasonably good looking car, that can be driven whenever you want.... as opposed to "disassembled" dream car that may or may not ever get finished.
That's why I refuse to tear my orange car apart. Yeah, it needs paint. Yeah...I'd like to add Rallye doors and PB hood. But the fact it is one color, running, and driving....keep me from doing that. I don't wanna be riding around in a mostly orange car, with yellow doors and blue hood.

Nice 70's look. Don't forget hideaways.

Oh Man! I'm in love. Only thing that car needs is a set of leg burners. Always thought the ramcharger scoops would look wrong but it fits. If you stare at the picture for a while and lean your head to the left you can just make out the sounds of Molly Hatchet "Flirtin' with Disaster" playing on the Pioneer Supertuner through the Craig speakers. "I'm headin' down the road, I'm flirtin with ..........".

I'm not a big fan of hood scoop transplants, even within the Mopar family (no incest jokes please...). But judging from only the one photo, that looks well done and is the first set of 1968-1970 Super Bee, Coronet RT hood scoops on a 3G Charger that I like. I think what makes them work is that they kinda fit the whole theme of the car. Carry on.
