    Pretty slick, IMO.  :grinyes:  Rims maybe a little "bling" but the bodywork is nice.  I like the rear end but the front is confusing.  Not what I expected after seeing the rear shot first.

    Looks like quality work, just everyone's taste is a bit different. I like the back, and not the front so much. Again quality work though. I'm sure the owner is very happy with it, and that's what counts.

     :iagree:   Reminds me of the '72 grill.

    Very true.  Good work and I know I would be happy cruising in that car.

    I appreciate the amount of work gone into the design but, the white part of the front grill makes the car look depressed. Not trying to knock their work but from first impressions it definitely lacks the presence the that the original 70 Challenger had and the wing mirrors look like they are about to twitch any second just like a deer does when it hears hunter!

    Just another Munster-mobile...

    It always amazes me how much money people spend on cars like this to make them look like garbage. 

    At least the Munster cars give me some fond memories of my youth.  The modified Challenger is just junk.
