that's just freakin gorgeous!

What a nightmare to keep it that way.
Black is the most uncomprimising color to keep perfect looking.

Keep us posted.

I love black, and your car looks amazing!  I agree with Topcat, black cars are almost impossible to keep clean.  One little breeze and you can see dust all over the car. Drove me nuts on my '71 Challenger.

That looks awesome Tom.  :2thumbs:

What color are you going with on the shaker and grille?
Also the interior?

And I sure need to get a lift like that. Sure would make my life a lot easier.  :2thumbs:

Thanks for all the great comments  :bigsmile:

Interior is red and ready to go in. I've been toying with stripes. Would I be wrong to steal some new challenger shaker stripes  :popcorn:

You could do a modified version like no stripes on the roof or a quick fade to black as it reaches the back of the hood.  :dunno:

Thx for all the encouragement Guys. That's why this site is awesome!

I'm not sure how I'm going to stripe the car or if I stripe it at all.

But I will keep everyone updated with the progress!

Challengers and Cudas need a stripe of some kind IMO. How did the factory stripe a black Cuda? Red hockey stick would be cool.

Hey that is really sharp.

I see no reason not to steal stripes like that for our old beauties!
