I cannot wait to see it. The Hess family are unbelievable great people to deal with. Anybody want work done give Travis a call.

Hands down the most beautiful return to war paint of the restored SSs to date.
Incredibly impressed.

All I can say is Blue is toast.

This car looks awesome and some talented folks have put some nice work into it!

Great to see that some sweet draggers can still grace the big stage!

Thanks,
Tony and I are blown away. He defiantly sent it to the right place. This has made us decide that the car will totally be restored to 1968. We have a lot of parts to hunt down. The Dana is going in the car. Since it raced with one and not the 8 3/4. You can see the chrome cover in this picture.

Tony wanted Travis's name on the car. I think it looks great

Absolutely stunning Dave. Is Travis doing the lettering freehand or stencils for location/placement?
Either way stunning work.

You know it's hard to believe that the car had ever been allowed to deteriorate after seeing just how gorgeous this build is. I realize that the years haven't been kind to a lot of other really awesome cars either. Every time I check updates on your build I get goosebumps. :love4:

It is all free hand. Travis is very talented for sure.

For me to be involve in this build is just awesome. The work that goes into this is just crazy.

This BO29 Hemi Barracuda will be one of the Best ones out there when done for sure.
