Thanks.....8) Talk about SEXY!!!! That right there is my other dream car!!! My father bought one of those new in 1966, was yellow with black interior 383 4 barrel. He had that car for 11 years. Then it got hit by a fire truck. Was a sad day for the whole family. You are one lucky devil to have a REAL Charger 8)

Thank ya. Mine is a 67 that used to have a 383, but now has a worked over 440. Was a light yellow paint with gold interior. I repainted the yellow, kept most of the gold interior but swapped the seats for black. I too love the car as it is a blast to drive around town.

very nice. I just dont understand why paint shops have to take months to paint cars, and they all seem to pull that shit. Dan Hyde in richardson, same thing. I have seen vital velocity's car been painted in 5 days so i knwo these shops are full of shit.

The end result looks great. You're right that the blue pearl looks difficult to see in these pics, but I'm sure it looks amazing in person.

My Spyder was down for six weeks, 3 in the shop and 3 weeks taken by me in disassembly and assembly. No reason to take longer unless there's lots of body work

It came out nice!!!
We usually take about a month or so for a full paint job. Color changes usually take a week or so more. More serious body work can take another week or so. We can spend a whole day or 2 just fixing one rear quarter panel.

Yep, took one place six months to do my other car and they didn't even do that great of a job. Finding a good paint shop is seemingly impossible.
