    My opinion of the overhauled Challenger episode:

    1. Wheels are too big for the car but I liked Foose's design with the rallye look.
    2. Paint is ok but a traditional Mopar color would have been better.  AAR-like stripes were appropriate.
    3. Excellent interior.  Love the seats and the new steering wheel.
    4. Should have stuck a Hemi in the Chall instead of that tired 440.
    5. Excellent attitude of Foose, the builders and the guy host.  They seem to understand the whole Mopar thing.
    6. Cute the girl host.

    yes, the wheels were just too tall and detracted from the Challengers simple but elegant original design.

    Nice that he didn't hack things up, no cutting fenders, splitting bumpers and such. Will make it easier if future owners want to take the exterior back to the orginal look on down the road.

    Dammn Pam Anderson looks like an un fed neglected stray dog with the ribs showin. Thats not my kind of girl. i like a girl with some meat on her bones, Not chunky, but not skinny like that! Anyway!, the challenger turned out pretty nice except what they did to the interior. they killed the seats with the recovering! Woudl have been nice all black!
    Hey I had those summit seats before anyone in a challenger! They copied! LoL!! ;D

    Heres my take on the show.... I'm a property manager for a bunch of hollywood producers and directors,have been around t.v. and movie sets ...............ABSOLUTLY  NOTHING  on t.v. ISN'T scripted, reality t.v. is
    all planned in advance.punked,survivor.........etc.  think about it if my vert gets "stolen" I'm not ok with phone calls from cops I'm looking myself,calling more than one police,etc.
     
     I'm going to have one of my clients contact spike t.v. funkmaster flex is done on east coast,they look for cars
    they don't do sob storries.

    I took a pic of my 70 vert on  the pool patio of the PENTHOUSE estate today I'll post later, bank forclosed
    on propertynow its like my house.  11 point buck soon to be on my wall

    Not bad for only 7 Days , not the way I  would do my car but different , paint can easily be changed , didn`t like the dash mod , wheels are a 10 min fix , probably corners well on those , I would have kept the wing or used the T/A spoiler
    The Cuda on Rides was awesome too , similar to my 70 but taken a lot further , better budget though

    even though i am a young gun you can call me old fashion becuase i would have killed foose for touching my classic, plus he did not even put anything new under the hood,  i mean thats the least he could of done but all he did was paint it and get stupid ass 20's on it, come on now who really needs 20 inch rims man.

    Hey Guys I didnt think those rims were that bad I think the paint job killed it!  I mean there a little extreme but you guys are justbeating those rims in the ground I think he did a great job on them.

    Lots of different opinions on what we like and don`t like,here`s mine- I`m not a big fan of that style custom but I think it came out pretty nice for what it is.I liked the mettalic green paint as it really sparkled in the sunlight.I don`t like the 19 & 20" billet Rallye look and they are way too much for a Challengerand just look stupid!I do like the clean look  but definitly would not have shaved the door handles.The interior was Ok and went with the style of the exterior.I do agree all these custom car biulders are starting to look alike.I liked the Rides `cuda with the Hemi but the silver did nothing for it,put some color on theat thing will ya Joe! ;D

    those rims on the challenger are probably worth 3-5K one off Foose 19"and 20" with new rubber.  SELL THEM

    plus there to expensive to melt :P
