I just ordered one too.

Mine is in this thread years ago but it's still doing what it does well and still looks the same.

Car is finished bar sorting out a few bugs. It took TopCustomMopar at our largest annual all makes show a fortnight ago.

The finished product. The car debuted at a small show three hours north of here at the end of May where it took runner up Car Of The Show. Last weekend it was at our largest local show each year where it took the Top Custom Mopar award. The Peak Dash has certainly helped it!!!
