It's a traditional hot rod forum, Gene. Nothing newer than 1965 is allowed there, including the parts you use on your car

Well the oldest part on my '72 is the '65 Fuel Injection sign on the ass end....used to be on the hood of a '65? vette......

but then again, the later parts are highly modified from a '94 vette......

and the ONLY stock parts on my car are the chrome bumpers.....seriously.....

Ah well, it's not like I've never been called an asshole What's funny about that site is that if I PM someone about a certain mod I want to make that isn't HAMB friendly people are usually ok with it and will help out, just don't post anything about it!

Man, I miss that car! I don’t see many Challengers with the smaller rear window.

Looking good,have not done a harness job from scratch but i'm sure at some point I will.
Have done plenty of swapping out harness's with new ones as rodents just love to nibble.The worse is doing a complete engine harness and less then a week goes by and its back for the same problem
.Insurance companies just love when that happens.

My 64 uses the same harness. I even did my own color coded drawings because GM changed the colors so the factory schematic wouldn’t work. Big job but bulletproof wiring!
