Thats awesome Goody! Can't wait to see the episode. I was watching that show last night and thinking how great it would be to have a car he designed.   :wow:

Knowing Mike gets a chance to work hand-in-hand with the A-team and Foose, I'd say he'll keep the car looking very acceptable to how we all like our cars to look. :2thumbs: :cheers:  I still can't wait to watch it on televison.  I already have most of my roommates wanting to watch the episode now... :cheers: :thumbsup:

Wait, does Foose visit this site?

If he does... I didn't mean what I said about his ugly, conestoga-wagon wheeled moparstein creations... it was a joke... funny, right? :walkaway:

Just kidding. Foose is a master craftsman who has built some beautiful cars, Its just a few of the overhaulin ones that I dislike.

Unreal, Just unreal.  That is the coolest thing I have ever heard, Mike.  I havent been on this site long, but for being the same age as me, you show great matureness (is that even a word?)  and represent the Mopar community as well as anyone can.  I really wish I could meet you, too bad youre a long ways away from me.  Take care,

Steve

What year is the Challenger? it looks to me a 72-74? I have a 73. How did Foose and you make contact? that is a great thing you are having done. Myself, I would die to find my car missing. PLEASE Keep us posted, and dont forget the pics, maybe set up a link with Pics
Thanks for sharing this - Awesome
