Damn thats a nice car, should fly given its one of the lighter A bodies and I can guess by your rollcage you got a powerful engine under the hood. Kind of what I have been shooting for with my car if I ever end up finishing it.
 
The cars looking great!I,m interested to see what she,ll run,my engine build is very similar to yours.Good luck and let er rip!!:clock:

P.S Mine should be ready by the end of the month.
 
Looks good, i hope it perfoms to your expectations!
My '69 Valiant is going black too, it seems to be THE color for these cars.
Good luck.
 
just to let you know, it is NEVER done.lol
 
Congratulations on a superb build!!!!!!!!!!! That's one badd *** looking Mopar, kind of looks like a sleeper but a serious street/strip machine Good luck at the track!!!!
