Nice find! I wouldn't cut it up!!!! Its too nice and these cars are getting more scarce and valuable...... In my opinion the 69 charger is the most bad ass car of all time!!!!!!
Dan and what makes it worse is that Warner Brothers ordered them all crushed except the ones given to Tom wopat and John Schneider at the end of the run
Thank God for guys like you to rebuild these old chargers because this old one looks like a heap of shitt to me but looks like gold to you, everyone’s view is different, I’m glad you have the eye,, skill,,,, and the money to rebuild these Bad ass MOPAR‘s
Four minutes into the video. But I had to pause it just to say: Your taste in music is as good as your taste for cool cars! Always happy to see your stuff. Keep the good things coming!
Love to see all those Chargers!! And good to see one that most people would write off having another chance!!! Im hopin to be doing the same soon!!! Ive had 5 68 Chargers, and need at least one more (to keep forever) before I die!!!
Very true about the Mexico interstates being rough. I traveled I-40 East Bound last spring in a 26' Penske truck and it kicked my A$$. Cool video, especially at the very end.
In my dream world of winning the lottery and finding three Chargers, I’d have one of each of the following: 1. an original Hemi 4 speed in dark blue, black interior, red line tires, dog dish hubcaps. 2. Convert a low end 318 automatic out of the junk yard or barn find into a proper detailed General Lee replica with 440 and 4 speed. 3. Convert another low end 318 automatic that was in bad shape into a restomod that would probably be my everyday driver. Modern Hellcat Hemi, 6 speed Tremec, coil overs/4 wheel independent suspension, Willwoods on all 4, and modern conveniences including climate control, power windows and locks, cruise control, and leather.
Awesome find bird song I want one for my 440 sixpack or a half ton Short bed paint for car would be indigo blue truck be candy apple red hammer down and keep it rubber side down for feed them onions as some fellers would say but again nice find my favorite year of the charger would love to see you build this one Chris 426 4 speed or tremic 6 speed bwith super charger all the hood
The body on the charger looks amazing all the panels that you have to replace normally is in good shape I would be excited to find a car in that condition
My dream car: 1969 1/2 Dodge Charger RT426 hemi. I had a 69 Charger when I was 18 but it only had a 383. Still, me and that car put a lot of miles drivin around those country roads back in Ohio. Man, it was a girl magnet. And that thing would flat out haul ass.
The body is pretty good the floors are awesome good score great car my first car was a b 5 blue white interior and white vinyl it was mint that was about 1980 I loves that car was a 383 car but beautifull yehnthat must have been a emu the shit great car
Reminded me of picking up the 73 SE charger I saved from a guy that parted cars for the money. It didn't even have a k member in it to put tires on loading that was fun as well, but also worth saving originally a 400big block car with a floor shifter red car with white vinal top and white interior. Slowly picking at it got a disc brake k member set up for it and a column so at least it's a roller now keep saving the good ones bro!!!
Always glad to see you beinging another back from the dead. Would love to see you do a wing car. You gotta know where a rotter is at, waiting to be saved...
Your somewhere between one fourth to one third my age ( I wouldn't wish my age 71 friday, on anyone) and you ciphered that car better than I could doing it for years. Your going to be a force to reckon with when you are my ungodly age. I've tagged those front ends before and in one piece the transplant is much easier to get in alignment or make square again. I did a fairly new one from factory who had an employee who took a long lunch break. I remember that one well cause it ate my lunch till I checked the square on it then it was mine. It was out from factory with wheel squeal an all a full quarter inch by even the Britt's tape measure!! Wiped tires till I cut/drilled with spot weld drill bit just for that which makes the job. I know a lot of people who would love to trade places on their own remand on that car... floors could be waxed when clean again. Speaks high for where ever it was stored. Drop us a line on this one every chance you have. Cold war motors up in canada would love this car.
My dream since i was a little boy watching the dukes of hazard in the early 80's was to own a 1969 dodge charger general Lee but my reality i know i will never have one cannot and never will afford one i am almost 50yrs old but i do get to drive one in my dream every now and then lol.
Awesome ! I love his Chargers, but the 71 Cuda is the End All Be All to me. My friend has a 340 4 speed 71 Cuda convertible that he says he will sell me.
g'day mate you can never have enough projects, keep saving them ,better they go to you ,who will do something with them .keep up the good work ,that's rebuild able to someone with your talent's . Mal
i love all mopars,an would never have any other brand,but i like cuda,s like a 71 the best and old swingers,an scamps etc, the duke boys nearly burnt me out on 69 models though...
I have an all numbers matching 69 roadrunner he should do. It’s a complete car engine out but runs. Can even help with delivery. Needs quarters and trunk pan.
What do you think was the best engine the Hemi or the 440 for these? Also, what must I consider if I want a more powerful engine like a recent Dodge Hemi upgrade as far as brakes , axels, and transmissions? I don't mind cutting into the floor to add more power to a car.
I went no, no, no,until I saw the floors. That changed my mind. Still, thousands and thousands of dollars to get that thing any where close to running on the street. What the hell, why not?
I'm looking to get a shell rolling chassis of a 69 Charger. I am curious how much did you pay and how much should you pay. Any tips I can get I greatly appreciate.
Cool to watch your videos, I used to live in Cooperstown and bought a 70 duster 340 from mike,I'm in Oregon now and would like another 68-70 charger, I got a restored nice 69 d200 383 auto,looking to trade for a project if you got one
Junkerupper...Looks like you've kept another one from doom and gloom... BUT...You must admit... YOU thought it was a useless piece of shit too,didn't you? Nice save!
Nice find! I wouldn't cut it up!!!! Its too nice and these cars are getting more scarce and valuable......
In my opinion the 69 charger is the most bad ass car of all time!!!!!!
WHY is it such a Bad *ss car? He drove lots of hours for a shell of a Junker! 8/01/19 9.16 am cst USA TRUMP 2020
Sunny Ray i think it would be worth it especially since you can get lots of parts for them.
Very very nice episode!!!
Good explanation about what is it a good wrecked project.
Thanks Chris.
Man, I LOVE your enthusiasm! I give you WAYYYY more respect in your approach to this style of rebuilding MOPARS over Graveyard Cars.
I wish I had the ability like you and a place to work on these projects. There is a lot of satisfaction when they come together.
I think you're saving almost as many chargers as dukes of hazard destroyed...lol
But now we have that awesome orange charger that we all love
309 Chargers were destroyed during the series.
5 cars per episode.
Dan and what makes it worse is that Warner Brothers ordered them all crushed except the ones given to Tom wopat and John Schneider at the end of the run
@@Dan-uv5lw john schneider figures it was closer to 280
@@meribrock4963 most werent crushed they ended be ordered to be crushed but most werent they just ended up in a yard
Always nice to see one of these classic Chargers being saved from the scrap heap or the crusher. Respect to you bro.
I AM GLAD YOU ARE SAVING CHARGERS.....I JUST WISH THERE WHERE MORE LIKE YOU...WISH YOU DID CHALLENGERS AND CUDAS....BUT YOUR JUST ONE MAN...
it's amazing what this guy can do,he really knows about chargers
You are the most optimistic person I have ever seen when comes to, ________you fill in the blank!
The easiest part of this project will be the unloading from the trailer. Good to see you on-line Chris, been missing your videos.
Thank God for guys like you to rebuild these old chargers because this old one looks like a heap of shitt to me but looks like gold to you, everyone’s view is different, I’m glad you have the eye,, skill,,,, and the money to rebuild these Bad ass MOPAR‘s
It's not a piece of shit it's a piece of HISTORY and would love that on my back lawn back here in NZ ☺
I couldn't believe how solid the floors are and it's stripped so you don't even have to take it apart
Four minutes into the video. But I had to pause it just to say: Your taste in music is as good as your taste for cool cars! Always happy to see your stuff. Keep the good things coming!
Man , Chris,Buddy "we are starving for this conetent" please keep
Posting your charger adventures ,what ever they are , love it Man !!
Awesome find. Glad she's being saved
Love to see all those Chargers!! And good to see one that most people would write off having another chance!!! Im hopin to be doing the same soon!!! Ive had 5 68 Chargers, and need at least one more (to keep forever) before I die!!!
I love watching your road trip videos,another Charger saved
Very true about the Mexico interstates being rough. I traveled I-40 East Bound last spring in a 26' Penske truck and it kicked my A$$. Cool video, especially at the very end.
I have the same problem, buying too many project cars and bouncing back and forth when I should be finishing the first one...lol
We have crappy roads here in New Mexico. No rot thanks to our arid climate. Nice Charger, dude.
Great Video my friend! Love seeing new and old projects!
Great music! Outstanding scenery.
I love chargers. If i lived closer would come and hang out lol.
In my dream world of winning the lottery and finding three Chargers, I’d have one of each of the following:

Modern Hellcat Hemi, 6 speed Tremec, coil overs/4 wheel independent suspension, Willwoods on all 4, and modern conveniences including climate control, power windows and locks, cruise control, and leather.
That is a whole different concept of «easy».. Very interesting to learn so much from just a shell!
I envy your knowledge and talent with these cars. Amazed at watching the loading up of this body, wondered how that could be done .
Ive never owned a charger but i get giddy over em too
Awesome find bird song I want one for my 440 sixpack or a half ton Short bed paint for car would be indigo blue truck be candy apple red hammer down and keep it rubber side down for feed them onions as some fellers would say but again nice find my favorite year of the charger would love to see you build this one Chris 426 4 speed or tremic 6 speed bwith super charger all the hood
Hi Chris..on the road again!!
The weather looks nice compared to everywhere else lol 😎
Still think you should get that one that you found buried in the desert a couple years back. What crazy content that would be.
" Those are some big logs there" Lmfao...dude- you're killing me
The body on the charger looks amazing all the panels that you have to replace normally is in good shape I would be excited to find a car in that condition
Nice score on that charger , that Az. License plate is a score too if you collect them like I do .
Here in Wisconsin we call them Flying Bowling Balls!!!

That really is nice country, from over here in Australia. It looks a lot like some of our drier areas. Best of luck with the car.
I'm loving this channel. If you are into Mopars, this is definitely a go to place. I look forward to your next post dude.
I had a green and cream one of these when I was in the Navy with a 318 4-barrel.

Them floor pans are amazing
1968 or 69 dodge charger RT 440 triple black is my dream car... I would die a happy man if I could ever own one.... lol
Wished you uploaded more videos. This channel is the next best channel to 50tussin.
If he uploads more,then he has less time to fix them
Tussin?? Bahaahaa
Yes Tussin. What's wrong did you get gapped by a little fox ?
Always glad to see you beinging another back from the dead. Would love to see you do a wing car. You gotta know where a rotter is at, waiting to be saved...
Awesome start to a good time. thanks from Sean in Vermont
Awsome video , wish I knew as much as you know just by inspecting , unbelievable floor boards and trunk , the car did save you some work good deal
Joe Dirt Daytona ! That'd be Awesome. Got da Wig. Now the Ride.
I feel your excitement over this. Would love to see it in yellow and black vinyl, and maybe manual trans. Cheers.
The body is awesome
If you ever get that back on the road, I would be VERY surprised. LOL
Glad to know it's out of the chicken coop and in good hands now. May it run again.
I wouldn't mind having one of the Road Runners.
Solid car, easy to get that one sorted. Nice one!
I wonder how people saw that on the trailer , and thought, that's probably going to be another General Lee.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
very nice country out there i lived in tucson arizona in the 90`s
I like the 70 roadrunner, 383 with a/c and factory 4 speed = nice cruiser in my book
I see you know Mopars. What else can you share?
My dream since i was a little boy watching the dukes of hazard in the early 80's was to own a 1969 dodge charger general Lee but my reality i know i will never have one cannot and never will afford one i am almost 50yrs old but i do get to drive one in my dream every now and then lol.
Consider it an investment. Besides the man with the most toys wins!!
What did you think was going to happen when you winched it forward while the Jacks were under it?
True believer in seeing the end result while looking at clapped out car... being dropped on car trailer with floor jacks..
That’s a rust free Charger for sure! You saved another one. I’m trying to finish my 71 Cuda this year only been a 20 year project. Lol. Newer sub BTW.
Awesome ! I love his Chargers, but the 71 Cuda is the End All Be All to me. My friend has a 340 4 speed 71 Cuda convertible that he says he will sell me.
@@shaunclifton5281 Got the Cuda?
@@johnchalleen3278 No. It's pretty steep. The dream of all dream cars though...for me.
wow Chris great vid worth waiting for cheers
Probably a white hat special, or a spring special. I had a 69 satellite equipt very similar.mine was yellow with black vinyl top.
You need a compound with a shop for all your cars 🤘🏻
g'day mate you can never have enough projects, keep saving them ,better they go to you ,who will do something with them .keep up the good work ,that's rebuild able to someone with your talent's . Mal
Hey man thank you for the video I enjoyed it
i love all mopars,an would never have any other brand,but i like cuda,s like a 71 the best and old swingers,an scamps etc, the duke boys nearly burnt me out on 69 models though...
Epic unloading
I got a laugh out of that too
make a charger dressed as a warbird idea,airplane dials
I would love to see you restore a 1969 road runner !!!! @6:40 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 that one and 69 charger are my two favorites M👀N ~
I have an all numbers matching 69 roadrunner he should do. It’s a complete car engine out but runs. Can even help with delivery. Needs quarters and trunk pan.
The unloading procedure.......golf clap.

I bet it was beautiful new yellow white top
I would love to see this made into a Joe Dirt ratty Daytona! You can expand on your movie/tv show car collection!
In california, you spoke of the salvage yard. Where is it located?
Very smart of you to think into the future..... It's called for-site.......and making a living.. Very smart....
Got the right idea
Another one saved nice
Listening to Mega Deth,,,thought I was the only one these days lol
I went no, no, no,until I saw the floors. That changed my mind. Still, thousands and thousands of dollars to get that thing any where close to running on the street. What the hell, why not?

Perfect body for a track/street rod.
It will look nice back in yellow white :)
You need a big ass shop you have a lot of projects by the looks of things
Living the Dream !!
all I listen to is bout the same music as you 70s an 80s rock 😂 my damn dads fault but they don’t make music like that no more
Amigo Quiero un CHARGER!!! Saludos desde Argentina
As sought after as 1969 Chargers are if I had a square inch of original sheet metal of a fender of one I’d rebuild it from scratch!
dude, you are my idol.
Looking faward to seeing videos of what you do with it mate.

you should drive on the michigan roads over here way worse than roads on your trip ..lol
You're not lying there Friend.
How do you deal with title issues on these rollers? I want that 71' roadrunner, that's my favorite year.
some states only need a bill of sale for cars older than like 1980 to get registered.
In Georgia you can drive a rock if you have a bill of sale and insurance.
As long as its got a solid foundation, good to go , id have it thx lol
