Just found your site with a surfing session that began at moparts.com's forums. Nice to see a group of people who appreciate our 3rd gen Chargers.
I got my '73 Charger SE in 2004. Still working on it and I'd say it's about 2/3 finished.
My specs:
1973 Dodge Charger SE 143K miles
ORIGINAL "P code" 400 4bbl >> 499 @ 10.6:1 compression
Aluminum heads, Hedmen headers, 3" flowmaster
ORIGINAL 727 TF rebuilt with B&M strip kit, deep pan
ORIGINAL 8.75 rear upgraded to 3.55 suregrip
4-wheel disc brakes
All the suspension and drivetrain is in (car runs and drives.) Body work is in progress as I type this. No interior really yet at all. Hope to make some friends here and learn some things about my car!
Thanks Guys!
PS. I need an original PASSENGER side full quarter skin for my Charger (73-74). I will pay money for this and will consider all offers!!

WELCOME!!! quarter skins are available on TABCO. ( around $350 I think ). skin runs from upper body line. Already fit by a member at www.dodgecharger.com and REALLY LOOKS A GREAT PIECE. Original passenger quarter. Last time I saw a NOS one ( passenger side ) went for $1500 or so on ebay. Then appeared a driver side and went fro $900 or so. I got one NOS on $250  driver side with some surface rust. Well I still haven't seen personally, just Chriss what does have storaged at his place untill can be shipped to Venezuela ( soon ). I hope rust is really just surface. about friends... yeah you will have lot here. please post pics on car members area |

I used the SSBC kit available from YearOne. It took me about 3 hours to install. The only modification I had to make was get a intermediate parking brake cable that was 7" LONGER than stock. Other than that, should bolt right in on a 8.75 rear.  |

Glad ta have ya...the more the merrier!!
I'm in the Greensboro/Winston-Salem/Shelby/Charlotte area A LOT!
(Safety tip: You need to replace those cinder blocks with something solid...I've seen them crumble while being used exactly
like your setup, and both times nobody was hurt (luckily) but parts had to be replaced!...just passin' on an experience or two!)
Welcome Aboard!! #2Thumbs#

My body guy wants the whole panel that goes all the way up to the windows (mine were rusted out...GONE). I have seen the panels at Tabco but they tend to need a lot of labor to get to to work. I'd rather just pay the money and use the original panel. I'm always looking on ebay but I'd appreciate it if any of you guys has one or knows where one is. I don't mind paying around 1500$ for it. |

ok,. will update you if I find someone. Passengers are more hard to find. I would like too, to match with my NOS driver side, but, who knows. And if running for that price, pretty sure I won't run with you for it LOL.
