Ever since I was in forth grade I wanted a "general lee" well thirty years later I got that wish.  When I first got it I was going to turn it into a general lee the I changed my mind.  I wanted to build a modern day fuel injected 69 charger that would be turn key, handling braking monster.

The car started off a a green 318 small block with a white vinyl top and white interior.  I bought the car on line sight unseen from Florida.  I had I shipped to NY and started to figure out on how to make a modern muscle machine. I knew I wanted big brakes and big wheels.  Nothing really was available from baer when I started so A LOT of the purchasing was done through a ton of research to actually see what worked on the car and what didn't. 

As I was deciding what motor/trans/ wheels to go with i sent the car to the body shop where Keith and his brother Steve did all the body work K&M AUTOKRAFT did the body and labored 300 hours into the once rust free original panel car.  I had them shave the rain gutters fill in all side marker openings all factory seams and antenna hole. I had all the gaps and panels spaced evenly. then I choose a ford gt-40 color for my paint. a ghost stripe was also added on the tail for that extra touch. Once back from body I bought a set of corbeau gtIII seats and had them recovered to match the factory pattern in white and the rears followed. I had all the plastic, chrome and headliner redone.  I dynamatted the entire interior before i installed the original gauge cluster that redline gauge works redid for me.  They converted my amp gauge to a volt gauge and installed a tach for me.  They also refinished my gauges in white. Soon after i had the suspension done by Al's performance.  They installed my bear brakes front and rear, hotchkis sway bars, tubular upper controls arms from Firm Feel, I had Paul from hydratech set me up with a hydroboost system for the car as well.  All new bushings and shocks were installed.  I had them powder coat the entire suspension and k member.

Once that was all done I put on the budnik 18x10 abd 18x8 fontana's mounted. i had budnik drill out ball rivets to give the wheel a 2 piece look.  Once the suspension and wheels went on the car I drove it for a month before tearing it all down once again.  This time it was major surgery motor trans and rear all came out.  A new 6.1 Hemi crate motor was installed backed by a keisler automatic 4 speed.  Out back I'm running 3.91 in a true trac sure grip built by Dr diff. With the 3.06 first gear on the trans the combo was perfect. I had a gas tank made from ricks hot rod shop and a radiator from ron davis. all these components I believe are the best in the business. After the motor and trans went in the exhaust and electronics was next.  TTi supplied the headers and full exhaust. The pcm was flashed by B&g and the wiring harness was supplied by tony squire.  Once that was all done the car came together. 

A lot of tweaking and man hours went into this ride.  Currently the car has about 500hp gets about 16-20 mpg on the park way with the 3.91 and sounds great. I still want to add some chassis connectors in a some point in the winter, and some fat man lower control arms.

The car is named OVRCHRDG
