Nothing like the sound of a fresh 273 commando

Thanks everyone. Serious sense of accomplishment when she fired up for first time.
Has been a blast building a car that is different with a built 273 and destined to never be pretty but haul azz. LOL.

Sounds fantastic and looks the same way. Did they not have the best mopar dress up package ever?! Had two 273's back in the day and the commando was a little beastie. LOL. Keep up the good work.
