Congratulations, very nice video and your car turned out beautiful. I only wish I had that kind of patience and talent to build a tube chassis car from start to finish.  Mike Gray

Well to be completely honest I have 35k in the car right now. Everything is new other than the motor and trans I recycled from my Dart. That is only parts no labor, but putting some value to the motor and trans in that 35k.
Bandit, Yes I have been doing side work since 03' that is how I have been able to afford to fund this car...and an understanding wife too.  The wheel base was stretched 2" from stock, I didn't modify the front fenders though. All the factory sheetmetal was reused other than a glass hood. What I found out after I was commited to this body is with there being a 5 Star fiberglass body for Pro Stock nobody ever made fiberglass parts like doors, fenders or a trunk lid, so I was stuck lightening that stuff as much as possible. As you know there are parts for the older Avengers.
Thanks again everyone for all the kind words!
