We just finished up this car and are really happy with how it came out.

We brought it to a show last week along with some others and people flipped over it.
Here's a few quick shots.

If you want to see it, it will be at our open house Sat June 16.
This may well be the last public appearance for this car as it will go to its new owner right after the open house.

Sex on Wheels. What is the color?

Hi Steve!

It's a custom color we created.

If you know the Mopar Blue Metallic (B5), this is somewhat darker and has real fine flake in it.

Thanks!

We do all the interior work in-house now as well.
Almost every aspect of the build we do in house now, and I'm really happy we've been able to do it that way as it gives us much more control over the whole build.

I'm really happy so many of you are digging this ride.
We felt it was a really special build, but it's great to hear others feel the same way. :cheers:
