Thats pretty sweet. It would of been easier, probably, if they would of put a Charger nose and tail on a Challenger though.

Yea but a body line would be easier than cutting the two rear doors out of a car and then stretching the front doors. Don't get me wrong it is a sweet project. It will definately be badass.

Only thing that I don't like is the rear quarter panel. To boxy/square. Should round off a little more like in the rendering.
