This story has finally come to a happy and unbelievable ending. I took delivery of the car on Saturday. Brought it home and did a couple hours of detailing on it. On Sunday I decided to take it to a mopar show about 70 miles away. The car actually took best in class. I was totally surprised. I could not believe it. I actually beat two superbirds and a couple of hemi cars. Oh happy days. Here is a picture of the car at the show and some smuck with the trophy. I am still on cloud nine.  :cooldancing:
