From someone who is looking to cut and flare his own fenders, you sir are an inspiration. Thanks for posting all your work.

Thanks guys,its been alot of fun building this,unlike my Cuda or Camaro,which had me doing nothing but prime and sand,until I have no finger prints left.I think I'm going to put a belly pan under the back of the car,covering the fuel tank etc,because the front and center are so flat .Once thats done I figure I'll hook up the fuel line,and take it for a spin.Still have to bend the front down bars and build some coil mounts,and of course the front flares.A smear of mud and a gallon of paint and shes done.Ron

Sweet. Get to it!! I love the low buck theme, and the effort put into this ride.

Check out this wide body Challenger. Wheels way too big in diameter though

Some people probably hate that look,but I really like,that Challenger will probably look sick when done.Its funny how you see this stuff in your head,all you can hope for, is it to look as cool in real life as it does in your head.There is some crazy stuff going on up there.Ron

dont worry.. my car has been like that since i started..
thats why i stopped showing progress.. some of my ideas are pretty wild.. and i might get bashed up unless they see it in an almost done way..
anyways.. im wondering how youre going to do the fronts to match the rears.

It looks really cool up here in my cranium.I've kind of got to match the back now,so there won't be multiple revisions of the front.I wish I had Fooses artistic skills,and could do a rendering first.I will have to build a skeleton out of some round bar then skin it,because the body lines need to line up.I'm really chomping to get on that,but I want the back of the car to be complete before I start.Ron

I think alot of it is worrying someone will see your ideas,use them,and finish they're car before you finish yours.

Can't beleive I'm doing this but, the panel, and the panel beneath it was pretty rusty.The under panel isn't avalible so I'll have to make.Still can't get over how cheap the panels are,they make Camaro parts see expensive.If this car would have made it RTTH,I can guarantee it would still be driving around with jagged sheet metal all over it.Ron
