Welcome to CHR!
I'm not a Mopar guy, but there are plenty here who are. What I do appreciate is quality and craftsmanship that so obviously shows in your pictures. Nice rod. Hope you have a long stay with us here.

Welcome to CHR, To-To. Looks like you're a hands on guy, and the Dodge should be a great car when you're done with it. Looking forward to watching the progress via pictures & posts.Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

Welcome To To and it appears you have a wicked sense of humour, (Traffic Attorney on speed dial ), so you shall fit in here real good. Awesome car you have also and like the idea of two large turbo's giving that big engine a blow job.I maybe a little crazy but it stops me going insane.

Hi Glen,
Thanks for the warm welcome and the nod on my Dodge, today I have an appointment with the stitch doctor as he will help with hiding the roll cage which is being installed next week.
Take care,
Cliff

Hi Roger,
Thanks for the welcome, I'm hands on as much as I can be based money and me-back willing. As I noted to Glenn the interior is next on the schedule and the wife is designing the interior, so I guessing a chandelier and drapes this week to coordinate with the bordeaux carpeting and leather ensemble in the main cabin of her rolling suite. Me-has a feeling that I may have lost "The Dodge" to "The Girl". I will post up pics of the progress.
Take care

Hi Dave,
Thanks for your kind welcome, nice of you to mention the looks so far and that you can see the bones. Trying to keep it "M" on the body & drive train however, everything else is pretty much one-off from here on. Hopes-me-keeps it right enough so as not to be abbey on this build.
Take care,
Cliff

Hello Mr. "Whiplash"
Seems you have some sense of advanced Ha-Ha goin-on a-bit yourself, that-LL hurt, some low seats and torquey go-go's. I have had to use the traffic attorney only one time (3/2011), it works but cost me some $$$$, I mailed the $ and the ticket to the attorney, never went to court forgot about it and a few months later the problem was gone, dismissed by the court. As far as the BJ, I just got a new mod for " The Dodge" it's the "Baby on Board" yellow stick on window sign but this one says, " Twins on Board".
Take care crazy.
