I retired from painting autos in 1993 and about fifteen weeks ago a friend asked me to take on a project to change the appearance of his car, feeling energetic and wanting to know if I still coud do it I said yes. "The Challenger Project" as I call it looked pretty good before from a distance but up close it was really rough. The only thing I did not do on this car was the welding...plain and simple I cannot weld. The owner did that. I am listing a link so you can see what was done if you would like to see. I did not have the camera when we put in the new floor pan and restored all the interior, the car was completely taken apart, repainted everything from the grill to the rear panel, you can see the changes. Here is my photobucket link....

Absolutely gorgeous.

I'm thinkin' of poppin' on one with 36K original miles on it in triple white, BUT THIS one looks GREAT............I'd much rather have this beauty.
