Hi Mike,

It was an awesome to be involved in the transformation of your dads car from beater to bruiser, I was there long enough to see it finished and set down on all 4 wheels, the engine fired right up and all went well. Unfortuneately I had to leave and catch my flight home about an hour before the reveal, sounds like everything came off without a hitch.

Congratulations bro, the car looks SWEET!  :cheers:

*I'll get you those parts shipped out this week, send me an address that works for you

Fantastic. I like the paint scheme on this one more than the green and yellow Challengers he has done recently. The other ones are still nice but this one is far better.

Mike, The car is just icing on the cake. For you to have an experience like this with your Father is worth a thousand hemis. Treasure every moment that you have and leave no regrets.
