Default Been awile....

hello gang, so it has been awhile and I've been busy modding the beast:

Mopar T/A hood, it FINALLY gets painted Tuesday June 1, nose and hood will be matte black. And my hood pins installed.



GTS smoked light cover kit




LPI Louver Kit




I'll be removing the tint and going back to that plain old school look. And installing a matte black rear rumble stripe on the back. The skirts should be done in a few weeks, just in time for our trip to Spokane for the Lilac Mopar show.

proform cuda grille insert is also being ordered

rims were send back due to incorrect bolt patterns, and rubber is sitting in Sweetgrass, Mt awaiting pickup.

plans for a 4.0L stroker kit and cams from Inertia MS, and eventually a Vortech S/C.

thanks guys, yes this car is DRASTICALLY different in every way, right down to the electronics. I'm loving the 5spd auto shift as well.

The car is getting there, slowly but surely. Bit by bit, I'm just waiting for wheels and paint as those have dragged on.

funny thing a few of my coworkers noticed today, I park next to a PCP Challenger (Classic Package) and although my windows are no longer tinted, my car no looks wider than the R/T?? I had to go look for myself, funny the rearend now just looks wide... I like it though, even with the louvers on, no tint and just the blackout rear lights but she looks alot more beefy in the back??

Paint tomorrow, doubt I'll even sleep tonight, too excited

UPDATE*** the anticipation is killing me, was supposed to have the car back today, well that's not going to happen, it may be next week now.... uggh, oh well I can't rush good work, although I am going stir crazy!!! so I am ordering new mods to pass the wait time.

ordered the Blue top transmission solenoids, - provides a firmer shift

Stacked Performance Sways - stiffen up body roll.



hmmmmm I miss my baby!!!

count down time, the hood was prepped Monday, they filled in the washer nozzle holes, and shot the underside. Yesterday was prepping the top and hopefully spray, so tomorrow of Friday for sure it will be done. Have the camera all ready to go.
