The car came out very straight, I'm very happy with the finish.

Jerry's Hot Rods a small shop in Hampstead, Md. Jerry is a Mopar guy that previously worked for a Chrysler dealer. He has several cars himself. He also does quite a bit of work for some pretty picky Camaro shops COPO cars RS and Z28 cars. I'm sure you wouldn't be disappointed he is easy to work with and takes the car in the direction you want.

The assembly process has started. It feels good to bolt something to it for a change.

Almost looks like a car. It's a roller again, I need to get a couple of things straight in my garage and it will be coming home. I can't wait to get started.

Thanks,

It's the Go Mango from the 2006 Chargers. It is being used on some other cars as well.

Wow Rob,
Your car is looking great. I live not to far from Hampstead and may want to get Jerry to look at my car. Did he do the metal work or just the paint? One other question, What did you do about your rear springs? New if so what brand, or rebuild originals? Thanks, Brian

Brian,

Jerry did all the metal work and the paint. He is very good with replacement panels or fabricating odd pieces from raw metal. While my car was there I saw him chop the roof on a street rod and lower it a couple inches. Replace a rusted camaro roof with a repro skin and obviously bring my rusty heap back from the dead. As far as the springs go I lucked in to a nice set at Carlisle so I cant help you much there.

Rob
