Did she kill anyone yet?

No, but I DID almost reinact the "Camaro Crash Scene" a few times... :D

I do, but they were snapped with an old Polaroid and I'd have to take about 2 hours to scan, upload to Pbucket, then post 'em...

You really put some TLC into that car, looks like it paid off too  :yesnod:
Can't stop chuckling... Can you imagine the kind of scares possible with the remote start and some strategic parking late at night?  :D

What's funny is after just watching the movie again, I thought the same thing. The setting was very close!!  Definitely an awesome car.

All I can say is You guys think AMD is hig for repop fenders? Try finding unobtainable '57-'58 Plymouth parts...I made alot of the patch panels for this one as most of the NOS suppliers are running out of parts.....
