Goody - I envy you being able to do this with/for you Dad.  My Dad passed away before we had a chance to build his dream car.  He always wanted a 36 Dodge Humpback Panel Delivery, well I ended up building one as a tribute to him.

We absolutely love it. I've never seen my dad so happy, probably one of the best days of my life, and experiences with my dad.

One of the beeter jobs by Foose, I guess you gave him some restraints, looks great. The roof stripe is different, but personally if it had been strobed like the 71-72 Runners I think it would have looked much better. But over all, they did a real nice job, congratulations to your Dad, must have been a wonderful experience watching him "accept" his "new" Chally.  :bigsmile:

It looks great Mike!   Has your dad been able to drive it yet?  How does it sound?

Sounds great, chip did a burnout in it. Nobody gets to drive it for a couple months. it gets tuned, tweaked, and safety checked...gets beat on for a bit to make sure its 100% ready-to-go..turnkey when they give it back. We wont see it for a couple months (~atleast 4)

but it'll be worth it  :woohoo:
