I've been checking out some very cool Retro Mods on different Threads on Challengertalk and thought it would be cool just to post the most coolest, retro mod looks in one location.

Just before and after pics to show the dramatic differences. Here are two examples of before and after...


Before & After photographs...

Land vehicle Vehicle Car Motor vehicle Muscle car
Land vehicle Vehicle Car Hood Motor vehicle


Land vehicle Vehicle Car Green Muscle car

PLEASE ONLY POST TWO PICS. AND TRY NOT TO COMMENT ON PICS, SO THE THREAD WON'T BE A DUPLICATION AND REPEDATIVE. THANK YOU.

Going old school via hood is the biggest change you can make.

I run both the Shaker and TA hoods. I currently have the TA installed for an AM event. Will change that to the Shaker for the PM event tomorrow.







Then the interior

Stock shifter



Hurst shifter



Under hood



With the shaker



And with the TA

It's the same as the AFR shaker, just remove the shaker cover (use shaker base) and bolt the base trim ring and TA to the hood (I've added a taller air cleaner and removed the rain shield (when it's not raining of course.)

Sweet! I really like the look of your "Retro Wheel Look!" can you please PM me details. I would love to get your setup.

I picked up both of them at my local dealership. (both have adhesive backing) If you need part numbers there is a thread around here with the part numbers. ( I would contact Luke from stevewhite parts, via the forums for the best prices)

thus far, this is an excellent thread.

interior:



exterior:



can you guess the catback?

however, in future I'd like to do what wyoming did with a Super B wing; cervini ram air, and custom paint the engine cover & the cervini ram air underhood attachment; long term some savini custom color rims and Goodyear F-1's. Then, I'll be ready for some racing! Have a great day!

New Take On The Old RamCharger Fresh Air Setup

Here is a nice Retro touch under the hood. I took a Cervini Ram Air Underhood Cold Air Kit and DA'd the Cervini and Ram Air lettering off and painted the body semi flat black and the runners in Hemi Orange paints. This was accomplished with Spray Cans w/Regulator Spray Handle. Then I added the old "Ramcharger" decal and rubber gasket to seal the Air Cleaner (Cali) Box.

It attracts almost as much attention as a open Shaker Hood.
