SRT-8 Daytona Clone

I needed to get inspired so I started with the metal work that would get me going. I started by building the bed for the short deck lid. I decided to fabricate the front edge similar to the stock piece reusing the front corners of the existing bed and fabricated the mid section. Since I was going to remove the dutchman panel entirely and the sheet metal on the insides of the tunnel back I would not have the old hinge points to go to. I moved the hinge points to just in front of the new forward rim and was able to use the stock Charger hinges. Pictures 2 and 3 are of a temporary wooden jig that held the deck at the right angle to establish the hinge points. Picture 4 is of the inner liner cleaned up with some material removed for weight.
