Yes, it is a Prospot welder. They're not cheap! Even some very good pro shops won't make the investment. We used the same welder a couple of seasons ago at American Musclecars on the Dynacorn Camaro. It's a great tool. Saves dozens of hours to install a new panel.

You bet it does! That's its best feature.

Dan: I have to say I was riveted to the screen today as well. I really enjoyed this segment and the spotwelder proves this car is going to be a step above most of them. As a car guy I watch all the TV shows dealing with the hobby but most of them are just boring advertisements, not yours. Keep up the good work! I think you're a fellow Canadian too eh?

I tried to post a larger pic and it was rejected. I'm sure there are more than a few dc.com members at SEMA this week, so I wouldn't be surprised if you see more pop up!

But, it's good to see some history saved, eh?

It has to be less than 200k in size unless you host it on something like photobucket.

It definitley looks good.  :2thumbs:

About the rims; we wanted something similar to the original 5 spoke hubcap with the red center. We looked at making the center cap red but, it just didn't look right on those wheels. Plus, we would be making a pretty dramatic change to Jason Rushforth's design by painting it red. So, we opted for a simple 5 spoke, 18 inch wheel.

Funny, no one has mentioned the lack of wheel well trim. Hmmm. But, people seldom comment on what is NOT done to a car, only what IS done. Leaving it off must have been a good call. Thoughts?

Thanks. Yeah, we're pretty proud of it! 7 months of very hard work.

Yes, the pics are on photobucket.

i didn't comment on it because i can't see it in the small pic ;) just those huge rims hehehe

Me personally, I love the wheel well molding. one of those stock trim pieces for the charger that others had to pay for. But I guess with all that shiney stuff in the wheel well it would probubly have been too much ;)

I don't want to come off as a jerk, Honestly like the car from what I can see, I like 90% of teh car... but you know what they say, you can't love everything... your hard work payed off, The body looks wonderful.
