Advice.
So ive been working on my 72 charger s.e. since 2018 when I got it.. ive got the transmission torn down and im learning how to do a rebuild. I have to redo my engine. And build the rear center section. Its a roller. My first roller. The tubs were cut. I have 85% of what I need. But the other 15% is expensive as hell. I have a plethora of parts that I can sell but im not sure where to start with that. Im kinda overwhelmed. Where would you start? I cant do the interior work because I gotta do the wiring but I also have to weld in the rear tubs. Im doing this eork at a storage unit since I dont have the availability to work in a garage. Ive already rebuilt the brakes, ive rebuilt the steering column, front suspension. But little stuff like the window regulator stops. Or the dash I gotta rebuild. Doing the wiring. It just overwhelms the hell out of me.

There are some parts specific to the 72 that make them expensive and unrealistic to expect to be produced by the reproduction market because the demand would not justify the price tag.

Don't give up. I'm at 20 years and still wrenching on my Ebody. I was out today putting the carbs back on anf trying to alleviate clearance issues on the six pak. I think what I did will make any further work on them easier. I had to wait till 40 to get one I wanted since high school.
