Re: How many miles have you put on your car this year

I've put 200 miles on my 71 Satellite in the last year. Roughly 140,000 on the odometer. I've put 1000 on my 72 Satellite Sebring Plus in the last year, 900 of it in the last 5 weeks. 54,700 currently on the odometer. Hopefully I will get a chance to get a paint job on them by next spring, not much ...

Re: Custom hood decals à la Daisy Duke.

Great work, surprisingly as much as I disliked it on the Daisy car, that looks damn good in white on blue with the pinstriped racing stripe style separation.

Re: 71 GTX deck lid decal location

From the pics I've seen the "T" is either centered over the Reverse light or on some cars centered over the far right red section of the tail light. It also appears the center of "GTX" lengthwise is alined with the trunk key hole. http://www.forbbodiesonly.com/moparforum/attachment.php?attachmentid=...

Re: Will they ever repop fenders?

AMD saud that there is simply not enough demand for fenders and doors for 71-72 and probably for 73-74. That's what I was afraid of. These cars are hard enough to find here in the Pacific Northwest rust belt and when you do find them they want a lot more than they do in the warmer southern states. ...

Re: Will they ever repop fenders?

I think in most cases we mostly need the outer skin of the fender, metal of your choice, fiberglass, carbon fiber, ect. bolted and-or welded to the unexposed parts of the fender. It would save tooling while keeping things simple with lower initial cost. I'm also thinking it would simplify things ini...

Re: Will they ever repop fenders?

I can see the use of fiberglass for racing, but for driving on the street, I would be interested in how the headlights would be mounted. Can a glass headlight bracket be attached, or rivet on a metal one, or what. I'm not saying fiberglass fenders are the best option but may be the only option for ...

Re: Will they ever repop fenders?

These cars didn't have fiberglass fenders from the factory.
Now you have me thinking how hard it would be to hammer out a sheet of aluminum with a re-enforced fiberglass mold and a propane torch? lol.

Re: Will they ever repop fenders?

I believe someone makes glass fenders. Seen them years ago. All I've seen on the internet more recently is 71, 72 fiberglass hoods, trunk lids and doors mostly marketed towards the quarter mile racing crowd. I really don't get the fiberglass parts. These cars didn't have fiberglass fenders from the...

Re: Will they ever repop fenders?

I've was planning on attempting to make a set of fiberglass fenders for my 71 with my limited amateur fiberglass skills but at the moment I have to refurbish a house before I can move in and get back to my hobbies. Not that I'd be in a position to produce or sell any, I thought I'd throw this option...

Re: Emblems or airbrush? thoughts?????

Thanks for the pic jace! That's just what I was looking for! You're welcome mopardog. What I am thinking for my 72 is B5 blue with the strobe and emblems (roadrunner or Satellite) in clear reflective paint and just the roadrunner reflective bird stickers. I have a white reflective strobe still in t...

Re: Emblems or airbrush? thoughts?????

has anyone else thought about "ghost strobe stripe and tank tracks There is a pic on the internet I saw about a year ago, I don't remember if it was a 71 or 72 black with the ghost strobe, it looked great. I couldn't find it on a quick search or I would have posted a link here. Back in the late 70s...
