1969 Dodge Charger Picked Up


We just picked up this little beauty for some help getting her all together and running. We had a long trip of almost 500 miles to bring her here to our shop for work, and thankfully the trip itself was uneventful and safe - just the way we like it at Motorheads Performance!

We sure did get a lot of gawking and neck-jerking on the road and "nice car" comments when we stopped for gas - especially from the women who seemed to really like this ride! 

Guy Algar said this project will include engine work, exhaust work, wiring, A/C etc.  We'll let you know as the job progresses, as first the engine needs to be thoroughly inspected for damage after sitting at another shop for over a year outside with the intake open and unprotected after work had already been started. Unfortunately, not much was done, and much of what was will need to be redone, as we can expect that at least two of the cylinders and pistons will be seized up from the neglect which the customer was unaware of. All in all, this will be a relatively quick job which will give the owner all the power he wants!
