Wow, thats pretty cool !  Any idea as to when the other stuff might be getting aired or out in the magazines also?  Who would have thought that something like this would get so much media coverage  !

The SEMA video was really cool.  I like how you did the mirrors under neath to show off the detail and work done under there too !  Amazing craftsmanship on that thing.

E body station wagon.   
I've never owned anything but a MoPar. Can you say that?

Challenger TA limo.  Cuda's have a shorter wheelbase.

People have been wondering why Dodge didn't make a retro-looking Charger like they did with the challenger.
Surely there must have been concepts.
Maybe some old design ideas can be brought to the road?
Two doors :2thumbs: please.

My thought is that everything is now family based.  Hence, the higher demand for SUV's.  If they had a 2 door sports car already, why make the charger.  Its not like todays manufacturers are making 5 different versions of the same car like they did in the 60s.  Take the belvedere / satelite car for example.  They had the belvedere, satelite, roadrunner, sport satelite, GTX and the belvedere wagon.  Belevedere and satelite both came in 2 door and 4 door versions.  There would be NO way that todays penny pinching manufacturers would even entertain that broad of a car line.

Actually most do...they just try and hide the fact..like a VW Jetta is just four door Golf...they also do an estate (wagon as you say!), soft top, a folding metal hard top (discontinued) and three and five door Golf's. Not to mention the Skoda and SEAT versions of the same car. BMW 3 series...three door, four door, five door, wagon, cabrio and the coupe (sold as a 4 series).
