Nice project. I'm also building a 71 challenger.

So what is it a 70 or 71? You have 71 tai lights and a 70 grill?
What suspension are you running?

Thanks for posting-Wes

Thanks! It's a '71 by the Vin tag. The car was given to our customer for a daily driver when he was a kid... it had been previously wrecked and had the grille replaced with a '70 therefore he is really attached to the 70 grille. Guess that makes it a custom?! haha.

Been in their shop a few times and have had them do a few misc. items for me. They do Fantastic work and are great to deal with and churn out some great cars. Good to see you guys on the site. :thumbsup:
