You mustn’t be so hard on the poor pitiful sixbbl69. Everyone knows that HE knows more than the judges who actually saw and judged the car. Now keep in mind that these SAME individuals have judged and compared ALL of the OE cars that have rolled through the OE program to date. This includes the other "people" mentioned by our pseudo expert sixbbl69. Rather than argue with the poor soul, lets see what head OE judge (Keith Rohm) said about this car in comparison to the past cars that had been judged in the OE program:

"The challenger is the nicest OE vehicle that we've had the opportunity to look at. It truly represents the word OE. That briefly is best case scenario as the vehicle would have been delivered to the customer brand new. With all factory imperfections intact and not cosmetically touched up. These cars were not perfect new but this challenger best represents the way the vehicle would have been delivered new. Our Dodge white hats are off to this challenger"

Sorry sixbbl69!!!!!

Good grief it's Jerry again,...........well I'll tell ya Jerry......Roger G, could learn a few things here,....I yet to see Dave W. make the kinda of mistakes( or any mistakes, for that matter) that I see on a lot of Gibson restorations



Jerry,...are there any good houses in your neighborhood...........that you could haunt?

don't tell me you are claiming to be an expert on these cars like the quarter panels you know so much about? is your name Dave also? please impress me with all your knowledge or try to.i haven't had a good laugh since the last time i read one of your post.i do agree that someone needs a little help restoring an E-body and it ain't Roger Gibson. thanks for bringing that point up.your one heck of a guy.

Wow, another useless post from a know-it-all that criticizes everyone but never accomplishes anything. First of all, while Roger G. does beautiful restorations he has yet to build a car as factory correct as this Challenger and for that matter MCR will never get close. I must have missed the year of the Nats that you had the perfect score since your “knowledge” and critique of everyone else is so keen, Oh Wait, that hasn’t happened and never will since you have the mouth to talk a good game but not the skills to back it up. I get the feeling you have either little mans complex and sit behind your keyboard to criticize from a distance; or you are a low achiever that is jealous of everyone that excels above you in knowledge and ability; which I am sure is a common occurrence in your life. The more of your posts that I read the more I realize that you are not much of a man, just a complete smarta$$ with nothing to add to this board, the Mopar hobby or to life in general.

even the owner lets criticism go Thur one ear and out the other or takes it with a grain of salt.has big shoulders or whatever.

So after reading this and the other thread about the technique to restore this car, what's the right way to restore our beloved Mopars?

The way the workers built them, or by the blueprints? Whats everyone's thoughts on this point?

Thanks for your input Ken. There are many ways that people can choose to restore/refurbish a car. I personally do not believe anyone has the right to say it is “wrong” if the person who owns the car is happy with the desired outcome. On a personal note, it was our objective to restore THIS car with the exact attributes and characteristics that IT was assembled with. We even counted and matched the drips that were documented underneath the car! In essence, the car was its own reference for the restoration. We have hundreds of pictures that documented before and after photos showing how precise we were in matching the cars original traits. If someone does not have an original car to start with and their objective is to have a factory type restoration, their other options are to follow the factory engineered drawings or other original cars. While one car may not be exactly “correct” for another car, it can still provide factory original characteristics to follow. As stated earlier, a person has the right to do to their vehicle whatever they choose so trying to pinpoint what is “right or wrong” really comes down to personal preference. Unless someone is attempting an OE factory type restoration, the sky is the limit as to how a car can appear or what it can represent!

All joking aside sixbbl69, I have a couple of questions. Did you even see or inspect my Challenger (in person) at the 2008 Nationals? If not, what factual information did you base your “opinion“ or assessment on? The other question concerns your quote above. Where did I ever state to you or anyone that it is my "opinion" that I have the best Mopar on earth?
