Goody,

It came out awesome...I bet your Dad is on Cloud Nine....I can believe they are making you wait a couple of months to drive it.  I understand the tweeking part but I would be dying.  Won't you be in Florida by then?

Thanks for sharing the total experience with us...

Congratulations Goody.

Glad to see your dad liked it. I also have to agree with Madmax440 when he said:

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.

 :wow: Just totally incredible Goody!

That car is awesome!  Must be like living a dream!  Great pic with Foose!

I'm real happy for you and your Dad!  :2thumbs:

Is it going to be featured in a magazine or something?  Would love to see some really indepth pics! 

Did they use a chrome moulding around the fender/hood area or was that just painted?  Looks cool!  :thumbsup:

Hey Goody, Do you know how they did the chrome around the grille opening?  I'd love to do that to my '73.

Goody,
That car is awesome. Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy. Go cruising with your pops.

Like others said, give us a driving update when you get it back!
I really want to get the 392 for my 71 Challenger project! I need more availability info! I know it will be big $$.
I asked on another forum also, but do you know what brand the seats are?

 Notice the burnout marks left by Foose himself!


 

 That stripe on the roof is actually silver.

Any chance of a close-up pic of this area?  I'm really interested in seeing how it was done.  BTW, the car looks beautiful.
