Here are some pictures of my hotrod magnum. I wanted to old school look of the 60s Dodge muscle. This is why I painted, yes paint and not primer, the hood matte black. Oh yeah, that's a srt viper style functional ram-air hood. Hurst Equipped shifter and interior, SRT cluster, and many one-off custom mods.

New custom one-off chin spoiler.

 
here are the lastest pictures of the completed car. here is a shot of the left rear corner. you can see the shaved tail gate and the custom rear air diffuser. also, there is my one-off custom fabricated rear spoiler.
the right front corner. here you see my custom formed aluminum mesh grille, SRT headlight with a tint film, a special one-off rksport viper hood that force feed the motor fresh air. the front chin spoiler is a modified daytona charger piece.
and the left front corner. here you can see the custom AAR 'Cuda stripes, shaved rear door handles and the lowered stance. the rims a Boyd Coddington Smoothies.
here are some perfect body lines  after the panel job. the doors and body line are now better than original.
custom fenders waiting approval. these one-off fenders have heat extractors built in. i am not really happy with the look so they were never installed, yet...
another view of the fender. i don't really like it and that is why i didn't use them, but they are fully functional
here is the padded leather window inserts. after the panel job, i made some inserts from black leather to fill in that area. it is they way the factory would have done it.
see, you can see it is padded and looks factory installed.
fresh out of the garage after paint.
color sanding after 10 days.
the interior panels
more interior work to finish out where the windows were
rubbing out the paint. i still need to install the rear bumper cover and taillights. then the custom AAR stripes.
here it is in the garage just prior to the black base coat
the brilliant black pearl base has been applied

the clear coat is then applied
painting is complete and the paper is removed. now i have to let it cure a week before color sanding and polishing.
here she is ready for paint. one week away. i wanted the final coat of primer to cure one week before painting. the longer you let it cure, the better.
here is the panel job in the works. shaved quarter windows, shaved rear door windows and handles. stay tuned for more progress. this is what it looked like right after welding in the steel panels. there is a lot of body work to go.
still ironing out the sheet metal. it take a look of time to get the steel panels straight. i had to shrink the high spots and raise the low spots. i didn't want to use filler as a substitute for workmanship and quality.
primer/sealer and then the first layer of premium body filler. as you can see, very little filler is needed if you get the steel ironed out first. 
found a low corner that needed some filler. this was a factory defect. i want the body panels better than they were stock.
a quick test with fast dry lacquer primer to see my progress. 
This is my favorite picture. i am using tinted SRT headlights, SRT Viper hood, Daytona style chin spoiler, and my own fabricated aluminum molded grill. this photo is dated back to december 2005.
these are my new carbon fiber valve covers, also removed the EGR system and added a catch can.
here is the custom grill i made. i made a very limited number of these for other magnums too.
I am the first to use a modified charger daytona front chin spoiler. it helps direct air into the radiator to keep this beast cool.
custom fabricated rear air diffuser. i didn't like this style so i quickly removed it.
here is a close-up of the hurst shifter. this is a custom fabrication. there are only three of these out there. however, Hurst has since seen my custom work and now offeres a cheapo version of this shifter on the 2008 and up LX cars.
The Hurst edition interior.
here is an old picture of my stage I spoiler. i since removed it and sold it off.
upgraded to a SuperBee SRT gauge cluster.
here is my new best 0-60mph time with the factory timer. 3.44 seconds
this was the worlds quickest naturally aspirated magnum R/T. at the time. 12.52@111.41 i haven't gone back in a year to improve it.

Here is the duct work in the hood the mates to the SuperRam airbox. this is the only true ram-air system out there, bar none...
