While I can respect the engineering I don't like the looks. It appears to have 15 sacks of cement in the trunk. The front looks like it has an underbite.

This one might turn out like the first one. :D
 
SpeedKore seems to really like the 1970 model of Charger. This is at least the 3rd one they have built.

This one they called Evolution.

Another one they called Tantrum.

Now this one.

Saw the SpeedKore dude on Leno's Garage. They make the whole body in carbon fiber, and according to him you can hang any one of their panels directly on a stock '70 Charger and it'll fit perfectly. I think he said the only change they made to a major panel (not counting the grille or taillight panel), was shaving the roof rails. Full tube chassis, full custom interior, but I think they do use factory OEM glass. Have to find the episode again...
 
I'd raise the rear a bit, have a manual transmission in there and have it any other color but that one, but other than that, it looks like a great build.

How much does something like that cost to make? $200K? More?

One of the trio was a manual, I remember him talking about adapting a 3 pedal to the Hellcat motor for it...for a driver, I'd go manual. For a bracket car? Auto for consistency.
 
They should build a Daytona clone. They can do that for me when I win the powerball lol, with the requirements I previously mentioned though...
 
It's not for everyone

But, I like it
some stuff I don't care for but, cool build overall

I don't like the wheel/tire combo, especially the style
or the red in the interior
or the console-style
But I rarely ever do, just my preferences, tastes are a tad different

lots of great work went into it
I can totally respect that part

to each their own, it'd be awfully boring
if everyone liked all the same stuff

I'd drive the **** out of it
 
Some of it I like and some makes me sick. The tail panel reminds me of a late 70 Thunderbird more than any thing. I can see all the very hard work that went into it. My 2 cents.
 
People need to stop doing the whole "exposed headlight " thing on these cars. Part of the iconicism of the 2nd generation charger is the hidden headlights. If you take away the hidden headlights just build a Coronet or a Roadrunner or something...

Its a nice build. But give it a few months and it'll be wrapped around a telephone pole.
 
They should make fenders, hoods, doors, and decklids in carbon fiber available on the market.
