Earlier this year, we introduced you to the latest creation to come roaring out of Year One’s Ghostworks Garage, a wild burnt-orange ’69 Charger christened “BigTime.” Commissioned by DeAngelo Hall of the Atlanta Falcons, the Mopar was designed to fit right in with the Pro-Touring crowd while maintaining its classic looks. The nearly-year-long project Charger might look stock to the untrained eye, but trust us, it’s far from factory.

The body was heavily massages to be razor-sharp and laser-perfect. The bumpers were mounted flush with the vertical bumperettes being shaved off. The lower valances were massaged, the transmission tunnel extended and opened up, and the whole Chrysler suspension 86’ed.

Instead of torsion bars and leaf springs, the Big Time Charger rides on a tubular K-frame with tubular control arms, and a rack and pinion steering up front. Out back, the Dana 60 rear (filled with 3.73 spinning an Eaton limited slip differential) hangs on a custom 4-link.

The rolling stock is pretty impressive to boot: massive Forgeline wheels, 18”x9” up front and 19”x13” in the rear, are wrapped in BF Goodrich g-Force KDW rubber (275/35ZR18 and 345/30ZR19 respectively) and stopped thanks to a set of Baer 13” 6-piston brakes.

Propelling all of this is a Techco intercooled supercharger-topped 6.1L Gen III HEMI punched out to an appropriate 426 cubes. Backed by a worked-over 5-speed 545RFE electronically-controlled automatic, the ’69 Charger is definitely something unique.

If you’re looking to reproduce this look, we hope you’re a skilled metalsmith, as a lot of tin work was poured into this B-Body. As mentioned earlier, a lot of the customization can go unnoticed if you’re not looking close enough. First, the rear was mini-tubbed as the driveshaft tunnel was raised to allow more clearance since the Charger was going to sit in the weeds.

Next, the frame rails were shaved as the bumpers were tucked. The rockers were extended as custom front and rear valances were fabbed. With the metalwork complete, the whole body was painted in 2006 Charger GoMango/Tangerine with matte black stripes laid on the hood alcoves and around the tail, matched by a black vinyl top.

Inside the cabin, the Charger received a Vintage air A/C system, an Alpine head unit and Boston Acoustics amps and speakers. While looking “kinda” stock, the interior was done in black and gray with brushed aluminum accents using YearOne restoration parts along with custom electronically-controlled factory gauges (except for the cool boost gauge inside of the speedo), along with custom factory covered seats and a custom OE looking console.

This custom is no wallflower, either. It did on it’s inaugural run during the 2011 Hot Rod Power Tour and has seen plenty of miles since then. Check out these videos to catch it in action.
