R6 is a great color!  Yeah, I am a bit prejudiced!    It looks really nice on the "slick-body" Chargers without a vinyl top also.   I forgot, what color is the interior of this one?

I agree. I am not usually a fan of Red, but R6 is a great looking color. Nice work Brian!

White interior rocks on a R6 Charger!


WOW! That interior is gorgeous AND spotless! There are cars in dealer showrooms that aren't that clean. Very sharp.

The green car has a twenty year old paint job on it. Its not bad,but definatly a driver. Real R/T 4 speed 440 car though.

Heres some more pics, so A-Ron can rest his cloudy minds eye.

I started using Sikkens water based paint in the late 90's.  I love everything about it but have seen a few really bad results when people sanded through the primer and shot the base over bare metal like on an edge of a fender.  Before you know it it'll be rusting through the new paint job.  You had to make sure everything was covered in primer.  I'm sure they have perfected these by now.  Glasurit was actually my favorite water base.

Man do I miss body work...    :'(
