I think it usually takes Brian two or three years to get tired of his cars  :smilielol: but this is his first hemi so he may never tire of it  :shruggy:
[/quote]I can only imagine how beautiful that car is gonna be with those colors and the Hemi 4 spd.  I can only pray he bores of it in about 4 years.  I'll be there waiting like a vulture on a branch. It's all about workmanship, and we've seen his work. :drool5: :2thumbs: :coolgleamA:

Well said. That's what I love about my car. Finally I'm complete. I day dream here and there, but deep inside I have a 69 Charger R/T so I have it all ( along with a happy healthy family ).   Of course moving over to a Hemi 4 spd Daytona would be having even more.  :icon_smile_wink:

Been working with the steel valance lately. Finally starting to fit up nice. Ended up getting differant ends for the valance from Dayclona. WAY nice pieces!

This W/E I hope to work with the nose fitment with the assistance of my Dad.

Stay tuned!

Excellent work my friend.  I wish i could be there to help some time.  Maybe i can grab Timmy and go on a drive some weekend to finally visit the shop and help out.  My Charger engine gets dyno'ed next month and then its back in the car and ready to go.

Paul, when did you pull the motor? Guess I have been asleep on the computer. Let me know when the party is for dropping it back in. I'll apply for the supervisor job, but I am pretty sure Nick has dibs on that job. :icon_smile_big:

looks good . are you gonna put on an oversize front spoiler . or the little stock one ? i think the big one makes the car look tougher.

Life isn't Father Knows Best anymore, it's a kick in the face on a saturday night with a steel toed grip kodiak work boot and a trip to the hospital all bloodied and bashed.....for reconstructive surgery. But, what doesn't kill us, makes us stronger, right?
