Friends of mine had their original T-5 XP 69 Charger painted all Go Mango awhile back by Empire Mopars. Unfortunately,  I haven't seen it yet to know how good it looks because they're notoriously slow putting it back together.   
     
Your work is outstanding!   It'd almost make me want to think twice about T-5 on Sinnamon.

3 Reasons.
#1 car way over budget
#2 I hate dealing with glass & insides of doors
#3 Owner did not want removed.

Outside Pic but sun was not out, all cloudy & gloomy. Still need to wet sand & rub. LEON.

If you don't mind me asking, what's a ballpark figure on what this is going to run for this kind of quality work?

hemi-hampton

Did you see the car from the beginning

Leon,

Yeah, I remember what it looked like. I am just amazed at where the car is now. Nice job!  :2thumbs:

hemi-hampton

Started doing some wet sanding & rubbing, not done yet. Hard to get a good pic of the shine. Still gotta glaze it, ect. Just roughed in here. LEON.

chargergirl

Beautiful...absolutely Beautiful! You do good work man that car looks sweet!
Trust your Woobie!

Finally rebuilt the Front Suspension & installed. Has one huge sway bar :o  LEON.

baullz

Looks awesome  :2thumbs: 

My '69 just got the same color sprayed on her a few weeks ago and it really pops if you get the right light on it.

Keep the pics of the progress coming

Obviously, those front end parts don't look stock.  But if that's what the customer wanted, it's fine. :icon_smile_wink:  For the "stock look", I would repaint the shocks black.

hemi-hampton

The huge Hotchkiss sway bar far from stock also. Far from a 100 point showcar, just a restofied, modified daily driver. Owner has zero concern for correctness, nor does He have the money for a 100 point correct showcar, who does. LEON.

hemi-hampton

Did some undercoating to underneath. Fun.  LEON.

Before & after Pics

Pulling Old Rearend to install another. LEON.
