Tim's the coolest cat on your side of the pond!
I agree
What happened to rear lower valance lol that ain’t factory
Back in the late 70s I got a call from a friend, his sister (17 years old) broke down in a town about 30 miles away. Didn't know what was wrong and asked me to look at it. Her brother and I loaded up some hand tools and headed out to see if we could get it back on the road. By the way, it was a 69 charger with a 440 6 pack (6 carburators). Turned out the front drivers side wheel spindle had snapped off. We drove around for 6 hours to find a scrap yard that had one to sell (12$ U.S.) by 8 PM we were driving it home for her.
That’s epic!! I love how these cars can actually be repaired so easily
The 6 pack or “6 barrel” as plymouth calls it is actually 3 carburetors with 2 barrels each hence 2x3=6
Chrysler never manufactured any car with 6 one barrels in America .
@@keithpearson7059 call it what you want, it was still referred to as a 6 pack.
I would love to see this finished as Tim wanted, it would be amazing to see him join in on the build too, it obviously means a lot more to him than he is letting on
Am I the only one that sees a 1969 grille.....car still looks amazing.....😎👍
WOW! Please give this car what it deserves and restore it
WOW a complete Monster machine .I always loved them after watching BULLET way back when it first aired .👍👍👍👏👏👏
Love that Ford grand Torino in that garage. I hope it is a station wagon. Those are WILD.
That has got to be the single sweetest, complete, and straightest orphaned Charger.
Put 4 planks of a meter inside the lorry. Then when you hit gravel with a motor stand or anything heavy. Just put two planks in front and two planks under the wheels.
Please do it up would love to see it on the channel
Cracking find Sam, looks like the one from DMCL, still regret selling my solid 68 Charger back in 2006 for 11K.
What a serious machine!, getting scarce in this part of the world now!, another fast and furious charger or General Lee? Or restore it to original factory spec?
Sam, this is the first ever comment I have left on any of the channels that I watch.
The reason for breaking my silence?
I simply had to congratulate you on buying what I consider to be the greatest MOPAR vehicle ever built.
I look forward to all associated content.
Well done!
Appreciate your comment matey thanks again for watching
Dirty Mary Crazy Larry ;-)
Man not only are the parts rare as hens teeth in the UK but also very expensive even in the US. There’s a couple for sale where I live here in Puerto Rico where they’re rare as can be and rusted out cars needing practically everything are going for 20k and seen some people sell parts like fenders and spares for thousands.
Awesome mate ,I've always loved these dodge charger's. Look forward to this build, great video .cheers from Noosa Australia 🇦🇺
Paint it orange , put 01 on the doors , ride out 👍👍👍
Sam, that thing's gonna be a BEAST!! Can't wait!! It would look awesome with a set of Centerline Convo-Pros on it. Whatever ya do I hope ya don't put on any trailer-park black, retro-mod wheels, like has been polluting the car scene for 2 decades. I do admit the black Nascar wheels looked great for the Nascharger though.
Cheers from North Carolina!! 😎👍
Simply the most exciting rebuild project out there ! 💪👊
Another amazing video ❤
Thanks matey
Very cool car will be following this build. Congratulations
Awesome 😎 & a Big FOA 👈😉
Nice find looks like it has a 8 3/4 in it
Another classic American muscle car! Great purchase Sam. Although, I'm not sure about the colour yellow. Might be worth checking the paperwork for the original colour or other original colours available at the time.
Awesome piece of U.S Steel , their built 3 times over , Had to laugh getting it round that corner..Good vid..
Outstanding project which deserves to be brought back to it's full glory.
Boom 🎉
Nice find 👌 it's got to be orange I thin🔥
Awesome brother !!!! Is a jewel
Classic muscle , l think you want the sportier wood rimmed three spoke with the holes optional steering wheel for this beauty !
Go for dark pearl bronze, satin roof and black deep dish wheels.
I was gonna say Root Bear but hell yeah Bronze works too!
This must have been an absolute dream. Very jealous over here! Looking forward to seeing it back on the road in no time! ♥
I'm gonna watch this. What a find.
Chuffed for you lad, what an absolute monster!!
I feel a lot of work is heading towards Josh with a road trip for Sam & Josh as a Finale.
Instantly thought of the 1993 US movie Josh and S.A.M. lol
Featured on Google News Feed Sam the Man !! Awesome Stuff !!
In the states OR across the pond, MOPAR love knows no bounds.
Used truck gold my friend that is an absolutely beautiful looking car
Beast of a car, jaguars caviar paint would look great, like a deep black cherry red. 😮
I'm sure your camera man was jumping up and down as he ran round the back of that house. LOL
lol we had a new camera set up and our gimbal wasn’t working lol will be working on the stability:) thanks for watching matey
Can't believe you don't have more subs. Videos are great.
Freddy can have his P1... That Beauty you have is f'n priceless!!
Nice find
Fuck yeah sad that it was never driven but fuck yeah
This is my true money no option dream car right here ❤
She’s a beauty. Mopar or no car !
Sweet ride.
Orange 01🤠👍
Yes mate super bad ass!!
Thanks legend
@@Hardupgarage quick build and burnouts?
@theanarchygarage9418 100%
That car is a gold mind.
I want to see more of that ford torino please it looks so good.
What a pretty car to show off the importance of better quality video.
Thanks matey :) appreciate your comment
Pretty car......
Cant wait for this build will be epic have u considered making it a every day car but putting a more modern v8 in it something like out the red eye or something similar ❤❤
I rode in the 69 when i was a child i am 64 and the 69 charger has always been my dream car😊
How lucky you are !!
I would flip one of the 440 engines and order a crate motor from the USA. Then offer that crate motor to the guy this car comes from. Get the original (numbers matching) engine with the car. Build the other 440 put that in the car. And sell it with original numbers matching engine AND a 440 in the car making it a very valueable car. Then flip it. And invest the money in another project.
I hope you have the original motor to this car. I would love to see this car back at its original state. It is one of my favorite cars ever. Good luck guys.
😎
Hmmmmm! Oh man, turn this up to 11, Build Yellow Superbird, Big front nose and massive wing!
But it's yellow so, get some Jordan F1 hornet style decals like they had on their F1 cars.
The Superbird was 1970, based off the Roadrunner. He could do a 69 Daytona though if he got the correct back window.
Cars from the 70s are the best!
Most of these I saw new were metallic blue - great color.
Yeah, Charger back in the channel
That's why I watch Coffee Walk
I'd like to see more on his daily driver, that was a tagged 428 cobra gran torino, whats the story on that?
Sam's father is Gandalf!!!!!!!!! freakin awesome!!!!!
I was just about to comment 'that's a '69 Charger' but then you explained about the grille 😂 My number 1 lottery garage car. Have you seen that there's a General rep. for sale on the bay of E in Lincolnshire? My ten pen'orth; restore to factory on the outside/inside with the entire catalogue of QA1 parts underneath (get rid of the torsion bars/leafs/drums) and Holley Sniper II injection. Full cliche with the wheels (Torque Thrust D's) but in a larger diameter and width for decent brakes and modern rubber. Make it go/stop/steer like a much more modern car. Not that I've given this prospect much consideration over the years 😂😂
Super cool, but like why is it all ripped apart what happened? Tell us the story explain like what why
One of the most iconic cars ever made!
It was the Nascharger series that got me into your videos. Really hope you can replicate something similar to keep this time.
Citron yellow, no shit, let me guess, she's got a 440, and he's got a dirty marry crazy larry poster up in his loft, theirs one near me I see from time to time, also this yellow was coppied by GM for the current gen corvette, called Rapid yellow, its a unique hue that shows up lime green on the old style cameras of the time,
hence why everyone thought it was something else, kinda like kirk's shirt in TOS, gold but it looked green thanks to the cameras back then
which even shows up here when you go from 8:37 to 9:22
also I'm more impressed with the paint, 35 years outside and it looks like that, the actual cars been garaged and is a rot hole, whoever painted that provided theirs nothing hiding under it, did a good job
as theirs certain points I remember junker up bringing, namely around the rear rockers where they like to hold water, as they just didnt do the drainage properly
also the other way you can tell the 68's and the 69's are the turn signals, 69's square, 68 round, which sadly kinda ruined one of the episodes of the dukes of hazzard for me once I picked up on it
I'd go all factory original. But that's my opinion.
Yup rare to see one of those over there
My Second favourite muscle car 😀
i actually love that color
Bro you need to get some skate love the colour
Original green
Absolutely
@@ForeverDownByLaw maybe with a white Mopar tail stripe, but definitely factory original, it can't be too common a colour
Orange 👍 dukes copy lov too see that
This is just my opinion. Keep the car yellow, even though you don’t care for that color. The car looks amazing just the way it stands out and says hell yeah brother I’m coming after you lol
F yeah! Make is General Lee
i subbed for this hope it doesn't go the way the ferrari did
👍😎
A manual Hellcat Demon swap OR .... go mental with Viper V10 engine in it😅
2 tan Detroit muscle needed 2b muscle around its 1st left turn out from the garage 🤣
It is a 69 charger with the taillights
I had a '70 charger 500 for 34 YEARS! , I built / installed a 550 stroker engine , Built torque flite , 8 3/4 w/ 323 's , O.E. type 2 styled wheels , new G 70 14's , ORIGINAL plumb crazy purple w/ white vynle top and white interior w/high back buckets and cinsole , 92.000 ACTUAL MILES on car , 3,000 ACTUAL miles on the drive train ! , stolen and illegally sold. by a relative ! 😢😢 That is NOT a '70 it's a '69 . F.Y.I. the steering wheel with the circular horn ring is extremely rare ! . I've been maintaining , repairing and modifying chrysler products and ford products for 51 years . I WOULD NOT turn any engine over that was sitting a long time ! I'd disconnect spark plug wires and ignition coil pull all spark plugs and squirt 3 - 5 pumps of engine oil in all the cylinders , turn the engine over with the starter for 30 SECONDS , Install spark plugs , attach plug wires and coil wire , carefully pour fresh gas in float bowl vents , start and IDLE ONLY for 1/2 HOUR , then change the oil and filter = ready to test or test drive .
I honestly envy u right know lol could I get a drive in it lol
Original 🙏
Are you going to buy the grain Torino
Over free decades? Wow
Left handed lug nuts on one side, correct
Can’t you do another fast and furious car like the black one
It’s a 1969 not a 70 charger. The 70 had a one piece tail light not a split pair. The front had a wrap around front bumper not a lower bumper with a split grill. I had a 1969 Charger RT with a 440, wish I never sold it.
Hi this looks like my father's old car that I'm looking for to see if it's still built do you happen to have a vin I also have all the paper work for the car and some louvers and other parts left over from the car please get in contact thanks.
If it’s a true American car it’s a hood and trunk!
Grill looks like a '69. Double check the vin.
The whole front was swapped but he gave us the original front end too :)
i say show the restored thing when your done fixing it up and maybe let tim drive it one last time
I love these cars. Please don’t tear this apart and then not put it back together again!
😂
That's a 69 Dodge Charger.You can tell by Little mel peace in the grill
The grill and the bumpers were replaced with 70 so it has a 69 front end
Im more interested in the Ford...
I believe I have a fuel cap for this
Wanna sell me it 😂
@Hardupgarage I'd give it ya if you have someone in the United States I can ship it to. That can then ship it to you. I've never shipped anything outta the country before 😅
@TheDriverr97 that would be great can you email me sam@hardupgarage.com
@TheDriverr97 thanks again matey
@@Hardupgarage grabbing some pics for ya and sending ya an email 😊
