My coworker's insane 1968 Charger build from MCR. Vids/Pics.

Bump for an update.

It's now done. He hasn't driven it yet. First stop was the Car Craft Summer Nationals. Picked up the win for the pro builder shootout.

I hear he has 10k hours into the car.

Not sure when he takes delivery, but I think it's fairly soon. He's going to let me know when he's going to bring it by so I can take the 'Cuda in and we can snap a few group photos that day.

My other coworkers with the Mustangs. One wants to sell, the other getting the restoration is still waiting on his to be done. My restoration was finally "complete" in Sep 2012.

Proof that things take a LOT longer than expected.

That's badass!

But 10,000 hours! I would not want to see the total on that invoice.

Good on him, what a long, costly and technical build.
Hope he tears the hell out of the highway with it.

If he doesn't, I'll just tell him my 'Cuda is faster in order to goad him into bringing it out.

Is it bad that my favorite thing on the whole car was the custom stitch door uppers/lowers and the center console?

I thought it was strange that in the video, MCR appears to to be talking to someone who knows little about cars...explaining what a wastegate is and blowoff valve Is your co worker just a check book builder who just wants something but knows nothing about how it works? If he does know cars, I would be annoyed that MCR was talking to me like I was a dumba$$.
