It looks great! I would suggest undercoating the wheelwells though.  You don't want a rock to dent your fenders from the inside out.

.calender material if you ask me!

That's a great idea. Why didn't I think of it?  :bigsmile:

If you have a higher resolution shot submit it for the calendar contest.

Excellent looking Challenger
The Bumble Bee stripe color works extremely well with the lime green - good color combo choice.  :bigshades:

When you "Finally complete," well, I'm not one to argue, but that statement may be incorrect.
Seems like there's always something to do on our Cudas/Challys
The more correct statement may be something like: Finally completed with phase one of the project.

Bottom line though: What a beautiful looking Chally.  :droolingbounce:
I'm sure that you're very proud with the outcome.
Time to go and show off your 5 years of hard work (before winter sets in)  :2thumbs:

Take care  :cheers:
Ron

Thanks - the code on the fendertag for the yellow stripe is VY9 - which is called "top banana".  I have heard of a few other cars around that had this combination (sublime with yellow), and according to Barry, there are a couple in his registry.
