The car looks great! I will try to stop by at Carlisle to take a look at it. What a transformation! I watched the YouTube video and there are so many smiles to go around. I remember when I started a '69 Roadrunner I had in the '80's for the first time. It had a radical street cam in it too. I was by myself but the smile was as wide as a boulevard.

Stunning job on the Challenger. 
The amount of metal work you completed is overwhelming and the results are spectacular.
Wish I had just a small fraction of your body work skills.
Good luck with the car.

Beautiful :cheers: :2thumbs:

The model year combined with the exterior colors had me associating your customer's car with the former Paddock Challenger.

I like that color when offset by white :smokin:

Personally with the amount of work involved I would  rather have seen a "stock" restoration, but that's just me. :2cents:

Great work, car looks fantastic....Can't wait to see it in person. :2thumbs:
