Change the rolling stock and that's a pretty sharp car. Shame about the automatic.

What's wrong with a 440-6 pac? :huh:

 

[Dr.Jass]

Nothing at all. I'm a big fan. "Rolling stock" means wheels and tires. Cop wheels look awful on muscle-era cars.

 

[68R/T]

I like the "cop car" look on my seeDAN, and it's muscle-car era, just not a muscle car. :huh:

 

[Dr.Jass]

You don't have the "cop car" look, you have the "base wheel option" look, which I love. Cop wheels are the heavy-gauge six-slot 15x7 wheels that appeared around 1975 with the plain, drilled dog dishes. They only came on police cars. Prior-year police packages did not use special wheels or hubcaps, which is why no one refers to plain steel wheels with correct dog-dish hubcaps as "cop wheels". If this Charger had the correct 14" or 15" plain steel wheels, in either the correct 6.5" or later 7" width, and the red-ring dog dishes used in 1970, it would look awesome. Unfortunately, it has cop wheels and caps, and it looks like shit.

Plus I have a thing for the 68 only B body dog dish.

 

[Dr.Jass]

As well you should. That shit looks good. :dance:
