Well, here is it. My 1968 Pro-touring Dodge Charger, nicknamed "MR ANGRY". I hope ya'll like it because there is A LOT of work, sweat and even some blood that has gone into building this thing.
With my current mod. list this car will cruise all day long at 120+ mph, stop and handle with the performance of a modern sports car and look a hell of a lot better doing it. This is not some show pony... it has the performance to back up the looks.
And people... if you are going to build a car... DRIVE IT! Don't stick it in a garage and stare at it... get in, turn the key and drive that BASTARD!
Cheers and may your tires never go bald.
