All New Pinkerton Glass going in. I have used both AMD and PPG also. PPG is the best and is expensive. Too me it is worth it. This was Pinkerton and it is nice also. It does not have any Mopar Corp decals like AMD. AMD Glass has a lot of tonq marks were they break it off the mold.That is not me in the pic but my helper Jimmy Ellsworth.

This was my shot after firing it up. This beast fired up the first try and sounds very wicked. The hardest headache was almost getting the Shaker Hood base to fit correctly on the single four barrel. It was a metal base from Ben Snobar and the scoop. Lots and lots of modifacation let me tell you. It is not a simple task.A lot of modifying to the carb base.I had to find the right K&N filter that cleared the carb and had to be low enough so the air cleaner scoop would not hit the top or the hood.

I like this one. I came up with the new Challenger R/T emblems at the last minute. Goes with the cars colors and theme instead of the original Hemi Emblems on the scoop. Plus they were only $5.63 Each

Nice shot. This was the fear back in the day when you came up to a light on Woodward or Telegraph Roads late on a Friday night and you see the Shaker scoop with Hemi on it.

Interior all done. The only thing not done on the interior in this shot are the door inserts. I did them with carbon fiber also. They look real trick.

Wow, what a great looking car. The paint color and stripe go great together. I love it.

I like the wheels too. Do you have a full 3/4 shot of the car? Great job!

Thanks Burdar and all those who replied. I was going to wait until tomorrow. I skipped quite a few shots along the way. This is the original color combo for this car. I am ever so glad I did it in the original color combo. This car was an early built LA plant car. Sept 13th 1969. 383 4 speed R/T. The stripe code was V9J.

Ok, Here is a Sneak shot from the rear until tomorrow. I am first going to post some really cool shots done from the underside and other cool pics of the car that are breathtaking.

These next ones are cool shots highlighting the car and parts. You can tell this car was done right with no cut corners. It is a true every nut and bolt, every inch of the car was done or touched.
