Really TJ - you have to stop posting pics. ( now that's funny coming from me )
I would have to say this is my favorite thread ever !!! Hands Down !!!! I am loving the updates - this car is going to be incredible. Do you have a buyer yet or is this car really just for your dad ? |
Now that's great fab work!!
|

This is going to be my dad's car... but I wish it was for me :unibrow: |
Wheels arrived and turned out great. The BAER 15" rotors & 6S calipers fit nicely too. The wheel centers are raw machined finish for now....

Wow, you guys are way too good at this ! Love it, Great Work !
Jim |
nice car - no really
Okay you really need to tell us more about your Dad and what the heck while your at it --- TJ you should tell us a little about you. okay back to our regually schedule movie |
He is one tallented guy...that's for sure!!
What are the show dates again? I'm too lazzy to look them up! |
I need to hit the P-Town show!!
Nice wheels BTW!!! |
|
nice... like the exterior. Subtle and sleek. Is the interior going to be orange as implied? Or something more subtle like black with orange accents similar to the exterior? Also, tho' I am not a big fan of large diam wheel look, I dig the five-spoke design choice as well. Something about muscle cars of any flavor and 5 spoke wheels (pseudo reminiscent of the Magnum 500 and variations on that design) just always works.
oh, and diggin' all the progress pics, thanks again for being so open about posting the build. Can't wait to see the rolling chassis, let alone the finished project! |

Fairly certain that he works at SAR and it looks like he's doing his own thing now ??? |
Thanks TJ! It's been a pleasure working with you guys as well. I love when a project goes like this, just bouncing ideas around on paper until we get all those subtle variables ironed out for a killer final product.
Great to see the shop and work with you guys and the car in person too. Well worth the drive! I'm stoked to see the car develop and honored to be so involved and entrusted with the very first job out of the shop. I look forward to many more and will do my part to spread the word! You guys can see the workmanship in the photos and it's even more impressive in person. There aren't that many shops that can bring a bare metal shell to a show and draw a crowd, much less put all their work right there to examine without any paint or interior, etc to hide things. This thing is going to blow people's minds and get your shop the exposure you deserve when you hit the shows this month. See you in Seattle! The interior is natural colored leather like a baseball mitt like you'd see in a Porsche or Ferrari. |

One of my all time favorites was NewMad done at Steve's shop. Many subtle changes to the body and tons of custom built stuff - and beautiful details.
http://www.realsteel.com/projects.php?projid=25&ptype=2 All the best with the new shop TJ ! (got a good start with the challenger) Jim |
Awesome project!
Can't wait to see it on the ground...:thumbsup: |

Takes a real man to use an open trailer in this weather...risky!! I should be at the show tomorrow around 1pm....can't wait!! How's the response so far to the car? Is there anything else worth loking at...PT/G-Machine wise?? |
