Been busy, hope to work on it this week. I picked up this emblem. It will go on the chainguard after some paint touch up. Every time I think about the car, that "don't know why I love you" song pops into my head.

I think it might match the theme well.

I bet it was tempting. I watched video of one on Youtube and it sounded the same as in the movie.

Yes, just found the number - according to Cooter Ben Jones, 325 Chargers were used for the series and 24 for the movie.

Thanks Luke! Abe your Pee Wee Bike is perfect! I am really impressed with the shape of your saddlebags. Definitely a lot of work there. I think it would be a blast to ride one down to the local supermarket and chain it up.

I did a lot of work on the bike this weekend. I started to place white pinstripes on the fenders. I had a sign shop make me some 1/4 inch ones out of vinyl. I have to get some more made, I wasted some getting the hang of it. I designed and printed out some front wheel swirlies on photo...
