As requested more engine pics:
Did a little something to the interior:
Finally got my SXT back seats now all my seats match:
Added a few things:
The mirror delete is only for the show and not on the car everyday.
Painted the door handles finally:
Even added a little custom touch and put a 4dr rear door handle on the passenger side so now there is no lock cylinder
Got me a couple of glow keys even ( one is cut for the car already)

Your car looks great. Such careful attention to detail. I would never have guessed that 2GN rear seats would fit.

The Painted handles are a nice touch, I thought I was the only person who thought about replacing the passenger door handle with a rear one.
Look into getting some lowering springs, just be sure to get either Mopars or the Prokit. As long as your struts are good ride quality will not suffer at all. My High rates ride just as nice as the stock springs.

Well people she's totaled as of 9/17/10 , but I really hope when I get her back from the tow yard I can start a full blown major rebuild from the frame up, my auto body teacher says u can use the shop's frame rack and air tools, so that will make life a whole lot easier. So its safe to say she'll miss the road salt this year.
This is the result from clipping a telephone pole:
Thank god I didn't have that stupid airbags delete

That's good to hear!!Ianguilly wrote: my auto body teacher says u can use the shop's frame rack and air tools, so that will make life a whole lot easier. So its safe to say she'll miss the road salt this year.
It's fixable , just about fubared, but at least you didn't hit the pole head on. Thinking the front rails are straight still, but get it on the rack to see. Gonna need a roof skin, plus all the obvious, but it's not that bad. Seen much worse fixed.

You're right, that roof kink looks kinda bad, as if the body folded. Wonder if the driver's door still closes and lines up right.roysneon wrote:I don't know guys, the structural part of the roof looks damaged pretty bad in that second pic...
If not, that ACR shell is looking good right about now.
