I really liked my 6 weeks in the Knoxville area back in September and October, not really Black, the proper name is Granite pearl...very, very dark grey...looks Black in the shade though. The hood will have a matte black treatment but will not be the typical Mopar hood blackout...too over used.

I think that maybe we all need to be in Findlay, OH.....Pittsburg, PA......or
somewhere in between the two. An area saturated with Mopar knowledge.

I sure don't regret our move to NC from upstate NY. They got hammered with snow in the last 24 hours.

As being an auto painter for the last thirty five years I really enjoy seeing work like this being performed. Squaring up the body, fitment of panels, is an art form. You picked a beautiful color combination, it works. I sure would like to see the elephant stuffed in there.

Dan's motor in Denny's mock-up with the Schumaker mounts. The need for that motor mount
strut will become readily apparent the first time you see Dan go through the gears. The green
tape near the LF K-frame mount denotes an area for cleaning and welding when it's out again.

What's been happening this winter (besides customer stuff)?
1. The correct matching retina-searing red seat belts have finally been received and installed.
2. New black trunk bulkhead trim panel designed / made / installed.
3. New 2.5" tailpipes about 3/4 done. (ignore cat in photo - he's a ham)

Year One....I think they are for the 67 to maybe 70 A-body...car is actually a '74...but do not tell anyone.
I liked the chrome latch vs the later...probably correct, black plastic latch

What the heck, You couldn't talk Dan into a Denny K member for that Big block...I know it's not needed for the big block install, but it damn cool.

It looks custom nonetheless............I'd call it HemiDenny Lite.
Good one....
Dan bought the trans and K-frame and brakes off a member here that was swapping to a RMS set-up for his beautiful small block Dart. I just added the modified TTi's, clutch cross-shaft, and Schumakers for his 383. The torque support was already there.....just needed some tweeking.

Went through 100 pages so glad I'm not the only one that chit chats in his build thread. Denny your silver car is amazing. I'm speechless otherwise.

Sorry Paladin....When I said "correct", I meant the correct color, which has been kind of
a struggle to find.

it is the Mopar RED....the custom part from Legendary was the way they stitched the covers....a little more of the 72 flavor.
the same RED as the '65 super stockers
