nice clean job :thumbsup: , but I would rather see it period correct :thumbsup:
 
I dig it too. Wonder how they finished the bumpers?

Nice to see the Mopar guys finally started getting their act together with late model Hemi swaps.

Not sure how they did it, but it looks like it's just brushed steel, smoothed and then clear coated. I like the look of it.
 
I liked the brushed finish on the trim. Gave me some ideas for when I change the color back to the Ruby Red Poly down the road. Hood was down when I looked at it on tuesday. Very cool looking.
 
That's pretty sweet. Like the modern Hemi under the hood, the trim and the steelies.
 
Late model engines, transmissions, brakes and steering in old cars turns me straight off. I walk right past that stuff along with the PT Cruisers and new Chrysler 300's with giant wheels.....

However, glad you enjoyed it, and hopefully you enjoyed the whole show. Lots of cool stuff to look at there. That's for sure. Enough stuff there to get you really excited and motivated to work on your own stuff. At least it is for me.

I think I used to be that way about classic cars, but driving with drum brakes and antique suspension made me park the car more often. Now that I'm running a modern suspension/brakes/overdrive transmission... I'm more inclined to drive the car on long trips... like Vegas and back (4.5-5 hours each way). But if it's a Super Bee or something rare/collectible... I wouldn't do the mods.

And yes... plenty of cool stuff to enjoy, never enough time to see it all!
 
Like everything it'll grow on ya. Lets face it, as much as I don't like computer control cars, soon that will be all there is.
Still, I like the cars you can work on with a few hand tools instead of a laptop.

I do the same thing and walk right by the same cars you do. Its cool if that's what some like but definetly not for me. Ron
 
Any 62-65 featured in a prominent setting like SEMA is a win for the old B-bodies. Still lots of car people who don't appreciate the 62-65 Mopars and think they are ugly but let them keep looking and they will come to appreciate what we do. A person has to hear something 7 times to grasp the concept....true fact. I wonder if it's the same for vision??
