Your attention to detail is outstanding. Everything looks well thought out, purposeful, and well executed. Can't wait to see it out on the track!

Thank you for all the compliments. Really means a lot up . It’s a lot of work to make things “nice” and sometimes I’m still not happy with it . But I keep telling myself , it’s a racecar not a show car grin

Amazing work, Tony! Nothing better than a racecar with show car quality. I love the way you've kept the factory look. That ain't easy and like you said, takes a lot of time!

Tony that is just outstanding work my man. I'm really happy for you and can't wait to hear about the initial track results and results after it really gets dialed in. Job well done!

shruggy My initial goal was the Mopar event at dragway 42, now im shooting for a local event at the end of September. It seems to take forever, but im trying to be patient and honestly i wanted to test before going to an event. AT this point i just want it to be right so whenever its ready its ready. Im supposed to be getting converter back today and the trans? maybe next week. The end of Sept seems within reason, but you never kneo whats going to happen shruggy

Looks awesome, love the attention to the small details. I hear you on the having patience part for sure. In the same boat myself but in the end it will be worth it.

Nice work Tony, looking forward to seeing this car run again at some point. If you care, Mopars at The Valley is Oct. 8 and the Island Mopar day is on the 22nd.

Why did you choose a cowl hood scoop?

Not too many choices, rules prohibit forward facing scoop on power adder combination, and it needed some hood clearance . shruggy

Love it!

It's got be a bunch of extra work to keep a factory-ish appearance, but so worth it for the overall look.
