Congratulations on the announcement of Henry. This video is probably a bit old, so I'm assuming you already had him. Hopefully he grows up with gasoline in his veins like yourself. Pretty cool episode. Looking forward to the next set of updates.

It's a boat steering wheel, have the same one in my '68 Charger. Had to remove the square drive also. Sorry to let the cat out of the bag. Now the internet can complain how it's not DOT approved. Congrats on new addition

Dude, I love you. 68 or 69 chargers my dream car. I'm a gearhead I like to consider myself a jack of all trades. Few years ago I had an incident that left me in a wheelchair not my quadriplegic. It's hard not being able to turn around not to mention do a lot of other things that I used to be able to do. Keep on keeping on brother. Love the cars and the content.

Nice work, Chris! Now if memory serves me right, they used the 14x7 Vectors in the first season, and they were machined grey. From season 2 to the end, they went with 15x7s in satin black, without center caps

You know what I like about you Chris? You have cars that most people would just trailer around because "it's a 69 charger" or whatever it is, and you're not afraid to beat the hell out of it. You're a class A car guy. Bad ass.

Very fun video & great to watch!!!! Ho yes, the General Lee is looking GOOD!!! Nice work and you make your video very fun to watch, plus learning how to rebuild our old junk!!! Like how you drill out spot welds then tear apart floor pans and quarter panels even the roofs. Then weld all new panels back in, it's great that you can get new panels & floor sheet metal to keep the old Chargers plus many other makes car and trucks on the road. Stay safe and great to hear about the baby on the way, very glad for you and you growing family. A friend Robin Jo from Pennsylvania awaiting your next video. Later!!
