Rowdy looks like he missed a few spots under the drivers door, wheel well and 1/4 extensions.

Just a quick update... if anyone here is going to be in the Memphis area tomorrow, then you should come to the Davis-Kidd Bookstore... Ben "Cooter" Jones will be there signing autographs for his new book and I will have my recently completed 1968 Dodge Charger "General Lee" parked outside... so come check it out:

I am not a fan of DOH, or the cars, or what the show did to hundreds of cars.  I want to smack someone every time they see my green, white vinyl topped 68 and and grin and point "General Lee"!  Ugh.

All that said, looks like you saved a nice car and made a nice car to drive and enjoy.  That's what's important.  We need more chargers on the road, whatever color or style.

I agree with some of the other writers about that gold color.  What a cool color with those seats.  You don't see too many of those.  And of course, you can always go back!!!!
Do I have the last, operational Popcar Spacemobile?
