project wife "07 charger R/T" beater
well guys im finally going to start my build thread that i ve been putting off for the last month or so. i figured it was the least i could do after all the help and support i have gotten from everyone on the forum. im kinda limited on pics befor i started the resurrection, but i will post what i have. i have already fixed some of the things the PO called him self fixing, drove it for about 1 month then tore it all the way down to the bare frame. right now i have already sandblasted and repainted the frame basically the truck is ready for the body to go back on but i will give details w/ the pics in a few days.
OK as for the name "wife beater" i came up w/ the name for the build after my wife informed me that after i finish the initial rebuild and befor any motor mods are made she gets first dibs on a grudge race @ our local drag strip, "HUGE BRAGGING RIGHTS WILL COME OUT OF THIS". Heres the setup 07 dodge charger R/T "wifes car" 375hp 395 tq flowmaster exhaust rollin on 20-9 f, 20-10r replica viper rims 275/45 up front 295/45 out back w/ trac controll Vs. 71 c10 lwb sb 350 mild street cam, GM double hump heads, edelbrock torker II, holley 750 vac. sec., 3.73 gear on 275/55 rears 15" no posi. well lets hear the predictions, will post more pics of truck in couple of days.[ATTACH]  [/ATTACH]
