Cool!! That body molding really suits the car. Thanks for sharing.

I saw that car at the Toronto Auto Show a few years ago.  Quite distinctive with the yellow fog lights and side moulding

That car was restored here in Rochester much to my surprise. I did see it one year at one of our local shows. I believe he still lives near by.

I believe that he is around Rochester, NY because when my wife went to interview for a job up there the husband of her potential boss was friends with Brock Yates.  Wish I had time to check out his cars!

Were you planning on moving to Rochester? That's odd, we all want to get out. Where was the interview?

She didn't end up taking the job, just interviewed.  She interviewed at the Elizabeth Wende Breast Clinic.  We ended up going to the house of the director of the clinic and that's were I met the director's husband who had an old 80's BMW M6 and he said his friend Brock Yates had one too.

That's a neat idea for a Challenger.  I like the hood and even the front bumper/lower valance/chin spoiler, but the rest of the body kit does not need to be there.  I didn't even notice the hood until I saw the detail pic's.  Brock Yates is one of my hero's.  The guy is absolutly crazy.  One of my dreams is take part in the One Lap of America race he puts on.
