Drag Pak at Paint
 

Finally got the chassis work done and we are now at paint!!!!! Really don't see that much difference in the car but the chassis work is done.... Car is still on the spit and will be for some time more.... Matter of fact they are still removing parts and pieces.... But when its done it will look like it came painted this way from Mopar......

when do you think it will be finished painting?

Painter tells me 6 to 8 weeks.... Sounds pretty long for that paint job but, I'm no painter.... No body work to do just sand primer and shoot and that is much simpler than it really is I'm sure!!!!!! Anyway for now 6 to 8 weeks......

are you doing anything to the motor?

Yes, we are restricted by the Stock rules to what we can do and its very little... Can't bore, stroke or change the lift in the cam... Can change the duration... Have to use an approved piston, rod and pin. The items must be approved and the Bobber weight is restricted to what came in the car.. Heads can't be touched.... I'm wanting to replace the cheap rods Ma Mopar put in them... Along with the valve springs, and get this thing to turn around 8,000 RPM..... So we do have it apart ands are checking all our options on rods and a cam......

Here's a sneak peak at the bottom paint..... Looking GOOD!!!!!

I notice on your chassis that they are using the large hole with a cover (plastic) above the fuel tank, like our avengers. Will you be using a stock style tank, or fuel cell? Wish they would have done that 20 years ago for the in-tank pumps!

Will be using a small 5 gal cell in the trunk.... See below.... Thanks Mack

Mopar Porn.:D This is almost as bad as waiting for the delivery..lmao

Oh you are so right!!!!!!! At least its in my home town now... I can go see it more than ever... But that makes it worse....

More Paint
 

More paint, less white!!!!!

Looking wicked man!!!

this is some color combination

NO WHITE LEFT
 

Stopped by the painter this afternoon... He was paint the orange fade while I was there... They will put the purple on tomorrow... All the whits is GONE!!!!!!!! Please excuse the poor quality of the photos... They were taken thru a window in his paint booth on my cell phone... Considering all that not bad... Better ones tomorrow.....

Nice to see Drag Pack cars again, love the paint looks great!!

The car is looking great!

More Outside Paint
 

Better pictures... The clear has not been shot yet.. The purple graphics and pinstriping will be next then the clear....

Looks like they did a really good job blending the colors.

Can't wait to see it all done.... Here's a new shot of my hat...

Hat and Hood Done
 

Helmet and hood are done.... All they lack are clear and buffing.. Didn't get tot he painters Friday... Was racing so will get pictures tomorrow... Should have most of the paint on.....

You know I never much cared for the ram logo on the front of all dodges, but I must say the hood looks sick! You should put a rams scull on the front, If you are running nitrous you can purge out of the nostrils, it would look wicked. Ive been wanting to do the same thing to the buffalo scull on my F-150.

New pictures this morning....

You can forget ever racing this car. This is looking like a "world of wheels" custom show car. This is the nicest race car paint I think I have ever seen! I'd love to see it in person when it is done. You are doing an outstanding job, thanks for sharing so much.

Just Bitchin man!!!

Awesome Mack, looking superb my friend.:D
I just wish it would get done..lol, I am going nuts.
