Looks like your Hemi Charger restoration just blew by my Charger 500 resto... Aero treatment or not, looks like there is no catching the top end charge of the Hemi now...    Your Charger is looking great Brandon!  Allen |

Some more eye candy! Carbs refinished to a superb condition...
Jeff said if the car runs as good as these look in person, it will be doing wheelies!!!

Thanks for all the positive responses, guys - this process has been so tiring and frustrating that you need that every now and then!
...not to mention I get a little bit of pleasure out of posting updated pictures for all the ones out there crying "rebody" a couple of years ago!

Surprisingly, not much... they said they were in ridiculously original condition (just forty years later)... they were outsourced, so I'll try to find you the contact info...
Thanks - BZ

...and while I'm at it, here's a pic of my new daily driver... 2006 BMW M5 - SMG transmission, 507hp V10 - crazy four doon sedan! Only 12k miles, so it's basically still brand new and I bought it for about half of what a new one goes for... loving it so far! (You can also see the HemiCharger's new home about to start coming up in one of the pics also - poured concrete this morning!)   |
