Hmmm... Now you've got me wondering about your wheel choice. If I had to guess I'd say you were going to keep it a low profile tire and maybe a larger diameter/width wheel for handling. Slots would look old school cool or maybe something similar to what was run on the old Trans-Am series cars... Then again, maybe you're thinking about unsprung weight...

I really want a light wheel. I need 18" wheels for brake clearance. Been talking to Forgeline about custom center sections on some barrels I have.

I wanted to do something different with the suspension. Everybody paints that stuff black or chromed. The bottom of the car will be black with the green parts to contrast. The color of the body will be the new sublime with pearl in it with a black Hemi billboard and black accents on the hood. No chrome................... anywhere. :glasses7:
Bumpers body color or black?

The bumpers you know of will be gone.
Now that sounds exciting!

The Viper looks good. I'm getting a picture in my head of a Viper-ized 'Cuda. We'll see if you can pull it off. So far I'm liking what I'm seeing.

The Challenger is more Viperized than the Cuda will be. I'll have to get back on that project also.
Started mocking up the spoiler for the deck lid this morning. Just cut out a couple pieces of sheet metal to get an idea. Angle, etc. If I get something to look at in the morning, I'll take some pics.

Well, it was overcast this morning so I didn't want to bring car outside and have chance of rain getting on it. So I started on the rear spoiler mod.
Made it 3&1/2" tall.
After lunch, going to finish the top panel and build the quarter pieces.

Finished making the spoiler. Just have to spend a couple hours welding and grinding.
I like it. Flows well with the trunk lid and the quarters.
