This is the most exciting time right up to the first fire-up. Looks outstanding! Well, I may be biased on the color scheme.

The hole in the trailer fender scares me.  I'd hate to see a rock come throught there and do something bad.......

Ya that trailer is f'n scary......It wont be on that blister anymore! I have nowhere to put the car as my garage hasnit started yet as we have had a ton of rain here in Southern Ontario this fall. Hoping they excavate later this week or early next week and pour the footings in the same day. Can't drive the car now anyway as winter is on its way soon :'(

2 Questions:

1.) What color paint is that?

2.) What would I search for to find those valve covers? I've been searching everywhere and can't seem to find a set.

Car looks fantastic!

What a great job you have done. I have a Challenger that is close to paint. It was fairly bad but not as far gone as your Charger. I did all the metal and body work myself so I can fully appricate how much time and energy has gone into your Charger.
I take my hat of to you Sir for staying motivated and seeing it through.
