New guy here with a dodge challenger

[4thechallenge]

Hi everyone... I don't see to many challengers so I decided to join.

My car is pretty stock with the addition of srt dodge seats, asanti 3 piece wheels and a few mods. I'm doing a black with a flat black scheme. It would be a dream to get a new hemi in there but I'm on a budget since I'll be divorcing soon :( so I'm shooting for reliability and very cools looks at a budget... Basically a nice driver. I'd like to post some pics but I'm on my iPhone so if anyone would volunteer to post em up for me that would be great so I could get some feedback.

Thanks everyone and I hope your all well..

Welcome aboard. I also am building a Challenger and just bought SRT-8 Challenger seats for mine. Do you have a wiring diagram for them and what did you do for the seat belts? I'd love to see some pictures!

Thanks, Wes

Wow it's for sale?! With this divorce going in I doubt I could afford anything like that any time soon.... I really wanted a cuda I don't know why I settled for a challenger but I guess it could have been worse

The seat belts aren't on yet but I'll be using the cv seats belts their about 69.99 each I think and the rear seats would have cost more to fit so I had my rear stock reupholstered to match my front... I sent u pics

4thechallenge,
Thanks for sending me the pictures.

I'm posting them for you.

[4thechallenge]

thanks for posting the pics.... I'd like to hear feedback if possible:faint:

[doitbby]

how involved was it to put the srt seats in your challenger? I have a chally also and was looking to put those seats or modify some recaros out of a mitsubishi evo 9.

[4thechallenge]

Id 90 to have them wired, and about 500 to have them installed because he had to do some welding... I almost flipped when I saw the bill because I was not expecting that much but according go the shop it was some work... But I'm happy with then I just wish the steering wheel was tilt

[doitbby]

did you put the matching srt8 rear seats in also? if you dont mind, how much for the seats and where can I get some

No I had the rear seats but would have to modify more to fit so I had the rear upholstered to match the front and I'm really liking the way they turned out... U can get some on eBay the usally sell from 800-1400 that's what I've seen them close at
do u have a thread? I'd like to see your car? U on the frat page I have pics posted if my car with the seats did u see them?

[doitbby]

Welcome aboard, it's great to see another Challenger. We've been working with the Mopar cars for a few years now and we're getting great results from our Pro-Touring 1970 Challenger, E-Max.

We also work with a more "stock" appearing 70 Challenger to show restorationists what can be possible within the realms of stock looks.

To be even more specific, that car is a Charger body grafted onto the whole chassis of a new(er) car.

Do u have any info on that charger...
Thanks

I spoke to the owner/builder for a few minutes at the Spring Fling @ Woodley park this year, he told me a little about it.

When I spotted it from a ways off and walked up to it, I said to myself: "Ok, SRT-8 wheels..... and buckets..... and REAR seat.... and engine.... hold the phone, hey what's with the shock towers?!?! Ohhhhhhhhhhh"


He said the SRT car was totalled out for roof damage or something so it made a perfect donor for the body swap. I might know how to find him if necessary, I am in the CPW club that puts on the show.

Cool car very cool car .... U should post a thread and update

[Carsavior]

The black paint scheme gets a lot of attention. I'm kinda concerned that you said you had to settle for a Challenger- I have always preferred this body style, but to each his own I guess. I've settled for mine for the past 28 years, and couldn't be happier. I hope it grows on you.

[4thechallenge]

Carsavior don't get me wrong I love the car but if I could do it again I would get a cuda. I've always wanted a cuda since I can remember but I'm happy with the challenger. I just hope pretty soon illl be able to drive it... Hahah
