Hey! whose Charger? Now thats something I could work on without anyones help right there. Is it a 69 or a 70? I know its not a 68 because it wuld have round reflectors instead of the square ones in the fender I see (or at least where they are supposed to be)

looks completely stripped down to the metal on that one side, which means there is no body filler in it which makes it an excellent car to bring back to its former glory. It kind of looks like a 70 but its really hard to tell by what little I can see in the pics

very good. do you have to use an accord non-abs brake booster or could you use the stock one?

although to be honest you should use a boosterless system that just has the master cylinder like this wilwood/chasebays unit.

I think I remember seeing a new one from some company (not sure if it was an accord one or not) in one of these pages showing all the parts he had ordered
