  11. Sonny Dayout's Dodge. Man, I love, love, L. O. V. E. this car. In my top 10 favorite customs of all time. Sonny, I'd take real good care of it, I promise.....will you adopt me? :D
     
  12. LOL. I dunno, a fight between us could go either way Sancho. I'm sure neither of us would come out looking good, but at least the winner's scrapes and missing teeth would be overshadowed by the stunning car. LOL
     
  13. Aaaaaaannnnnnddddd in this corner weighing in at..........

    You guys are a trip. Talk about a great pay-per-view. Fun stuff! E

  18. I sure hope he brings it to Indy next year.

    Sonny's Dodge was really the inspiration car for my '64 Pontiac if you can believe that. Reading the article in Classic and Custom (thanks for the one fro 1001 R&C Ideas rudestude, I hadn't seen that one before) and all the different cars he gathered parts from to build such a cohesive design really opened my eyes on customizing. I immediately got on the hunt for T-bird seats for my interior and thinking what parts I could use for grille and such. Over 30 years later, I'm still stuck figuring out a grille, but I keep after it. LOL

    A guy from Auburn Nebraska had a guy from Omaha build it. He was taking too long, so the owner lied and said he was moving and needed the car done. It was done in around 90 or so. He later sold it around 97 to a guy from Des Moines Iowa. Who still has it today unchanged.

    To me, this is a mild custom but is it even milder than that? You guys decide. Hunnert Car Pile Up,
    around '05 or '06.
