This is unbelievable. I was out in the barn today (actually under a '67 Pace Car - installing the trans), when I heard someone come in the door and say &quot;Bruce, this is Dan Kulp&quot;. Well, Dan Kulp is the guy who owned the Hemi Challenger for 38 years! He and his wife just decided to take a drive over to my house today. Needless to say, I was very glad to see him! He also brought the magazine (and a movie of the car racing at maple Grove). The name of the mag is &quot;Mopar Action&quot; and the article is on page 12 entitled &quot;Groovin' at the Grove&quot;. By the way - Dan is going to visit a cancer specialist on Friday - so please lift up a prayer for the ol' drag racer.
Sorry if I caused you and trouble Steve, thanks anyhow. Bergy

Gorgeous car, but I'm not sure I understand that paint sequence [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/confused.gif[/img] You mean they paint the white stripe, then mask off the two sections of the white stripe in order to get that thin strip of body color between the wide and thin sections of the stripe?

Yes Bill - I was amazed that the factory did the striping that way too!

I picked the car up today and took some pics - can't get photobucket to work though. When I place the cursor on a picture - the picture gets dim and won't let me copy it???
