VIN: XS29J8B261820

HIGHLIGHTS​

• J-code Hemi Charger built by Mr. Norm’s in Hudson, Florida
• 6.4L forged Hemi V-8 engine

I really appreciate the time and craftsmanship put into it, it looks like they did a superb job… BUT WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO A REAL HEMI CAR??!! . Is there a picture of the actual vin?

I don't recall us ever having one. However, we did have a red X, but it went away because _some_ people couldn't handle it.

The C-body cats still have the X as an option, but they are a more mature/sedate group than the B-body and A-body guys. Also, they tend to explain why they used the X, whereas it was more of a driveby shooting on FBBO & FABO.

Whatever icons remain are all grey, just like the boring cars sitting on dealership lots.

Yes, I'm sorry, I misspoke. It was the red X, not the thumbs down. Sorry. But the intent is the same. All in fun.

Is there a picture of the actual vin?

No, they didn't include pictures of the:
Dash Identification Plate,
Fender tag, or
Broadcast Sheet

Which is really cool but please do not use a real hemi car for that...

I’m a restomod kind of guy but no way in hell me personally im restomoding that car. Its crazy what trash cars are bringing in some of those auctions. Im not saying that car is trash and minds any better but those rims and such just makes it trash.
