Finally Started! 68 R/T Resto..NOT SCARED!

Fair enough i'll just assume it cost less than a Bugatti Veyron 

I not trying to be an A$$ but I did have a shop do it so it cost a good buck but at least I know what I have and its all documented via photos etc and I love how my vision came to reality

It is a beautiful car, and thats a huge understatement.

even if it cost the same it looks ALOT BETTER than the Bugatti

Some pics my friend John took

[Back N Black]

Cool pics,  love the hood shot!

[WHITE AND RED 69]

Sweet pics! How was that hood shot done?

[RIDELIKEHELL]

John would be best to answer this but I know he took a shot with hood up then hood down using a tripod from the same point. He the overlayed them using his fancy software and removed the hood from the first pic ..something like that but it is his little secret

what mufflers did you go with?

That's pretty much how it is done. Camera is on a tripod and two photos are taken. Then, using photoshop or a similar program, you put the pictures on top of each other in separate layers and adjust the transparency of the top layer. If needed (due to shadow/lighting change) you can erase the rest of the hood down picture, keeping just the hood in the layer.

I have a collage hanging by the car in the garage 

[RIDELIKEHELL]

Pulled the beast out of the garage on Saturday as it was pretty warm here. Now the winter cold is back but no snow at least although they are still salting the roads as of yesterday so no driving. We need some rain to wash away the crap!

Also got my vanity plates on her

I had mine running on Saturday as well but like you the streets are not ready yet so no driving. Got the itch though 

[Charger-Bodie]

I started the Daytona last week too. Only problem is that it shot some soot out the exhaust onto the hood of my 69 Chevy c 10. Not a biggie,wiped right off. Started the 68 on saterday. really getting the itch.

[RIDELIKEHELL]

ITCH does not describe my feelings right now  It was a tease to get to drive the car in November when it was completed.
