Thanks again guys!! And yes I plan on going to the stock specs with the green top and interior with the white paint, but in an R/T trim. So the hood, butt stripe and console shift. If it didn't cost an arm and a leg I'd get the rally dash too!!

The butt stripe HAS TO BE done in V9F  or EF8 Dark Green Met., that would look so sweet with the white paint :drool:

I debated keeping the flat hood and doing a shaker, but I got a great deal on the hood and for being an original R/T hood I couldn't complain. I LOVE that picture!! That's the color I want
to do it in, it would look awesome!!!!!!

Killer paint combo, i was thinking of the very same White Challenger with the Green bumble bee when i read that you are doing it back to stock colours and an R/T clone. My vote is to go with the Green Bumble Bee too :bigsmile: :clapping:

Hello from Osan. Looks like you are moving right along. I have a factory R/T that came with a flat hood. I love all the hoods so I let my wife choose the hood she wanted and she chose the flat one saying it looks classy but is mean under the hood. Im interested to see how yours comes out with the white and green.

Thanks man! I have yet to do a short tour what's your follow on? I can't wait to get working on the car, the weather has been horrible here and the wife wants her car in the garage. Hopefully it will start to clear up soon.
