After 2 + years, twice the amount of money I thought it would take and COUNTLESS hours, she's finally here, home where she belongs..........DONE (except for the de-bugging)(BTW...someone could have wared me abut the debugging...LOL) anyway, enjoy the pics, I will be putting the rest of decals and vacuum hoses on today and I will post pics as I finalize the details. For those of you that have been following along at home, I wonder if yoiur comments re: my Indecent proposal: should I sell her post will now change that you've seen her complete. Oh and before I forget.....MANY THANKS TO TREVOR AND ALL OF YOU AT DC.COM......there is absolutely no way that she would be HALF the car she is without the vritually endless supply of knowledge and patience not to mention answering all of my stupid questions.........THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU ALL!!! couple of things: PS...... I wish I had the skill to have done this all myself but that just wasnt the case, special thanks to Gary Nolan at diamond trim ( www.diamondtrim.com) who is an absolute wizard with interior and trim and also Peter Howe of Howe motor works for there excellent work.

Well pete, I was kidding about the rich comment, but I love it when someone completes a project. I think about selling my project all the time. Are you still selling? I really hope you don't, because that car looks like alot of fun. I would give my left nut to have that car and a few others on this site. Keep us posted and if you do want to sell I have a few people over here in rhode island that would want it

Beat me to it great - I was going to say "Just in time for MOPARfest!"
So, how about it Pete..
I was on the fence about going this year - without a car in the show - but if you and Claudia will be there, that'd tip over the fence on the side that's going.
