My buddies new charger built by RICHARD PETTY!!!!

13lstuner · 11-20-2013, 10:01 PM

It's a 2012 with 21,000 miles on it sold to him by a family friend. Sadly his maintaince on this wonderful car was subpar where the paint is concerned. So me and him spent 5 hours getting the exterior back to its former glory! This is what I did with a lot of the elbow grease help from him

Wash (Adams car shampoo, dry me crazy towel, Walmart microfiber mit(looking to upgrade))
Adams detail spray: to confirm that there were no water spots left
Clay barring with mothers clay bar
Hand polish and buff: no machines(but I actually needed to do it I just don't own one)
Seal: with black fire wet diamond sealant
Wax with meguires "white" wax
Interior cleaning with vaccum and crappy interior cleaner from walmart(doesn't dry well but smells great!)

I have to say this 5.7L beast with CAI, "wider" throttle body, custom drop springs 2" in front 1" in back, cat back borla exhaust, and a custom tune by Richard Petty. This really gives me the itch for an SS or FI my V6. But hey, I'm happy for him here is the pic of the dash where he signed it, followed by some crappy dark pics of the detail job(will get some better ones tomorrow).

Why can I embed videos here some times, but other times I end up with just the code??

Edit: sorry now I see it's a YouTube video, when I first clicked into the thread it wasn't a YouTube link.

I know, I've tried the link, the embed code...nuthin. I'm not saying "hey that link I posted is supposed to embed a video". I know that that doesn't post a video, just a link.

But I've posted videos here before. It's a pisser

Hahaha cool video!

Hmmn I don't want to rain on anyones parade but was there some kind of papers that came with the car that said it was done up by petty motorsports? Some badges and what looks like very cheap stickers seems a lil too cheap for it to be worked on by petty. But its still a RT charger which is cool. wheels aren't my taste though.

Well the papers are in the glove box... And his actual signature is on the dash, and it's not a sticker. And the fact that my friends father knows Richard petty on a personal level is enough for me to set my skepticism aside...
Man everyone has got to be such a party pooper on here.
Also it is getting sent back to petty motorsports for a retune after he installs his LT headers.

Regards,
Andrew

Is this someone around the Rocket City area? Because I'd love to see this car in person.

I hope that these next couple pictures is enough to clear up any skepticism
