Hi, This is my 1972 Dodge Challenger that I restored as my High School Graduation Project between 2001-2005. I'm currently 19. The entire car was completely disassembled, and put back together. I helped do the body work along with my dad as he has his own business. If you would like to see the entire set of over 200 restoration photos you can visit my website: http://www.korymiller.com
I would also like to take this opportunity to thank those people who helped me on the car.
