dukefan Posted January 6, 2009 Report Posted January 6, 2009 Hey Tombo, I just spent the last 25 minutes looking at every single picture from the very first to the very end. I haven't been on in months, but this past 25 minutes were the best time I ever did spend.Once I passed my last comment I post to your thread, I was in awwww, on how much work there was to restoring a '69 charger into your own general lee, and I was thinking, OMG, if I want to do this, I have a lot of steps to follow, still want to do it?Then I thought, hell yes, don't care how long it takes, I still want to make my own General Lee, just as soon as I can fund it.I can't thank you enough, or praise the work you have put into making this General Lee of yours and sharing your steps with us, I was like a kid who was over thrilled and pumping with excitement as I viewed each step carefully.This was so incredible to me, so very incredible, thank you again for sharing your love for building your very own General Lee, awesome works!!!!
