Done.....almost
« on: May 15, 2009 - 04:44:45 AM »
Almost finished but I can't take credit for the work.  I'm really not even worthy of posting in the member restoration projects. I returned from Iraq and sent my rusted wreck to a resto shop.  Now I'm stuck in Afghanistan and my shop sends me a picture of it finally completed (except for a/c charge and hood inserts).    I'll see it next month when I'm on R&R

Where are you in Afghanistan?  I am still on Bagram for another 13 days before I go back for good.  My car didnt get quite that far along, as I had numerous problems with two different shops while over here.  Oh well, I will have direct control when I get home.  Your car looks great.  Congrats.

Sweet ride pokey :2thumbs:

Brought me back to the 70 340-4 Challenger I once owned. My current car may not have come with one but that Challenger tail stripe is my favorite :)
