Bought another Charger....part 2

[Deleted]

I will have to look around and see what I have. Unfortunately, I think I sold off all my vinyl top moldings a few years ago.
Probably not going to pay $275. At that price....I'd rather buy another parts car.

Pretty sure the difference in vinyl top moldings is due to the 71 SE having belt moldings.

who says we don't need roof skins reproed ?

See, if you wait long enough you can have a sun roof too with a spot light.

Sorry....but AMD is too busy reproducing everything for A bodies instead.



However, if it makes you feel better..... with you 100%, that it is a needed part.
There were a lot of Dodge/Plymouth 71-74 b body 2 doors made....and a lot of them have roof issues.

Working on getting the 71 SE stripped down. A couple more hours....and it should be ready for the sawzall.
As I pulled parts off of it, I thought a lot about how cool of a car this would have been, back "in the day"
I was disappointed, but not particularly surprised, that bucket seats are too far gone. The tracks are rusted frozen, missing large sections due to rust. The springs are rusted/broken....and the seat back frames are rusted badly too. The roof pretty much allowed most of the interior parts to get ruined. Not much in there was salvageable.

It kills me how clean those inner fenders are. My whole car is cleaner, but rustier in that area than most others I have seen.

Yes, the car is relatively clean from the firewall forward.
I am going to cut off behind the door jambs and at roof pillars....and save the front "stub" with frame rails.
Then maybe on a cold winter day....bring it in to the garage and drill out all the spot welds.


I don't want to get in the position again, where I need something I scrapped out 6 months ago.
At the same time, I don't want to "warehouse" a bunch of stuff that I will never possibly use either.
