Second, your pics speak volumes for that shop. WOW. You sir went to the right place.
Third, with the skills shown, are you planning on enhancing the body as much as your rendering is?

Thanks I appreciate  that  yes definitely the right shop Dan has unreal metal fab skills and yes pretty much everything  you see in the renderings will be done to the car while keeping most of the original body lines it should look very close to the rendering. What brothers are you talking about the ring brothers
Thanks John A I'm still working on mine years after Pj got yours done but it's in the right hands now.

Check out these new pictures this is how talented and detail oriented Dan Holohan is he took the time to build a die to stamp recessed metal pads for the wing pads to sit down in unreal attention to detail. thought i would share i bet you have never seen that one. :popcrn: :popcrn: :popcrn: :drool5: :drool5: :drool5:

If you don't mind me asking, what kinda of money is a build like this cost? I know things change with unforeseen problems or changes but I'm just curious of what you budgeted to complete something like this.

unrulyprocuda

Well that is a million dollar question the orange Mayhem 69 Charger that was just built by Detroit speed is rumored to have cost in the $900,000.00 range

Well that is a million dollar question the orange Mayhem 69 Charger that was just built by Detroit speed is rumored to have cost in the $900,000.00 range with parts and labor this is one of the reasons searching for the right shop is key Detroit speeds labor rate is 150 hr and they want to bust ass on it and get it out the door quickly. I had to think long and hard on this I am not a rich man Holohans shop charges 75-80 an hour and you get an honest hours worth of work I  have $100,000.00 in parts when finished and estimated 100k more in labor when all is said and done and the car drives out of the shop finished  my build should cost around 200k not unusual for this calibre of a one of a kind car silly to most but not much more than a nice original Bird or Daytona.This shop also worked within my budget of 20k a year for five years which is something most will not  plus i have been collecting parts for ten years.
look at it this way you saved 700 k   :icon_smile_big:  by going to Holohans   
GO SELL CRAZY SOMEWHERE ELSE WE ARE ALL STOCKED UP HERE

I for one am glad you decided against Detroit Speed. Only one reason. I tried to get some information about the custom tail light they made for the Mayhem 69 Charger and I left a few messages and never got a return phone call. I have a problem with anyone who thinks they are too good to return a simple phone call. Part of an ignorant and arrogant attitude that prevails today with people. Also after watching in amazement at the sheet metal work on that build I was horribly disappointed with the color combo. So I am glad you are doing the project where you are. It looks amazing and is top shelf so far. :2thumbs:

unrulyprocuda

Man Thanks and yes i agree totally on color choice it was terrible. And I hate that about most arrogant shops like Detroit speed at least answer some questions i know its all top secret Nasa type shit but come on. I look at them like Indy Cylinder head you spend thousands of dollars and when something fails its always your fault my friend spent 60 grand there and they would not even give him a jacket.
I Wish you would have asked me about the tail light assembly supposedly it was made by Jesse Greening from Greening auto company in Nashville  they made the tail light from solid billett aluminum it cost between 5k to 10k  and it took forever to make.He makes some awesome one off Billet pieces but its expensive.
Im shure you have come up with a cleaver way to set yours apart from the rest. Im going with a stock 2012 Challenger slightly modified taillight although ive been looking at the 2015 version they kind of resemble 69 charger tail lights. I always enjoy your cars updates looks like the home stretch soon.Here is a some pics i snapped of the car in question.it was nice but he will never be able to recoup a quarter of what he spent.

look what My 12 year old son Made him a car like Dads on Forza horizon 3 he did a great job
