Throw some flat black on her and enjoy! You exemplify what these cars are all about. Takes me back to those days when I'd buy it, fix it, drive it, then buy another.

i would primer that thing black. put some wide black steelies on it and shove the biggest tires under that thing that you can. oh and drop the front a bit. sure would look mean.
 
I saw a 71 Charger R/T in Astoria Queens NY over Memorial day weekend. It was black with the white stripe from the cowl area down to the rear of the car, and had the Ram charger hood. Real sharp car
 
This should give you some ideas

I've always loved the 3rd gen chargers. It came down to a 73 charger and my 68 dart. Bought the dart wish I could of had both. Someday I'll ether have a 2nd or 3rd gen charger(68 or a 71-74)
 
Cool project car kid.

Good luck with it.

I've never had one, but have always liked the look of them when they are done right or different from the norm, and the cockpit looks so darn comfortable like it was made to pin you to the seat and be driven like mad.

I think this is gonna be a very, very cool car and I hope you take your time with it and make it a stunning work of art as time and money, and girlfriend allows. he, he.

This reminds me, I have a guy up the road from me with a 71 R/T charger that is dark bronze metallic with the flat black hood bulge stripe and old school torque thrust wheels, and it is truly an amazing looking machine, I have to get pics of that car and show them to you.
