Fantastic! Same route I'm going with my superbee except I'm going twins and a BB. Right down to the wheels! Nice job and great memories with your son! I like the idea of not being a full out competitive race car...I've got the same mentality. Bad ass street car and if I win a race or 2 at the track, so be it. In be in for a set of those aluminum brackets for my 68 dart as well as my superbee if your thinking about making a run of em. Rears too.

Sweet Duster. It looks awesome. I will be running my Challenger in the X275 & TT5 Classes also. It is set up on 315's right now. I see you are in Mi also. Looks like you may be done with yours before I am done with mine. Hurry up & get this Mopar out there & start kicking these Chevy's & Mustang's butts.

Very clean man! I hope to see it up close sooner rather than later. I have been to Milan a handful of times this season
I was always out in the garage as a kid...the best memories I have as a child are working on cars, This is great what you are doing with your son.

Thanks everyone for the encouraging words. Superbeeman69, no plans are in the near future for another batch of brackets, but I already have templates for a Superbee, so you never know. 6PKRTSE, based on your cage I think you are planning on going a little faster than I am. That car looks great with the interior and cage the same color as the car. I have always liked them that way, but this car is the wrong color combination to do that with. I didn't really like the tan interior, I thought the car looked to washed out and needed some contrast so black it was. As far as being done first, probably not because I don't have a motor or trans yet. I'm just trying to get the car completely done as a roller before I buy a motor and keeping my eyes open for the right deal during this time. I go to Milan about twice a month, how about you? Jody
I think a tan cage would of looked awesome. Of course black always does to. My cage just got certed for the 25.5 cert for 7.50's.
Same here, I have the expensive part left too. The drivetrain. I also go to Milan numerous times a month. Every Heads Up Night, No ET & most of the Saturday Holbrook Shoot out days. We should all meet up one of these times out there because I am tired of hanging out with all of these Ford & Chevy weenies because they can afford to race because all of their stuff is cheaper. LOL
