- I bought this original 66 Charger 383 4-speed car with what was supposed to be a blown head gasket... it was much worse which made this car a great candidate for a 6.1 Hemi resto-mod! When done this car will have a RMS suspension, and 12" Wilwood brakes.
Done pictures:
Eventually this car will receive a full restoration and paint job, but for now I'm going to drive it around and enjoy it!!
Before pictures:
Here's how it looks after 20 years of storage! Overall a very solid car with some minor surface rust.
Before engine (383) pictures:
I ended up cutting the connecting rod off at the crank, putting a sheet metal sleeve in the cylinder and getting this motor to run very well on 7 cylinders!! (email me for 7 cylinder video)
During pictures:
RMS front and rear suspension, 12" Wilwood brakes, 6.1 Hemi, new driveshaft, 3:91 Detroit locked rear, EFI tank, 3" TTi exhaust, VN427 wheels with BFG KDW2 tires
