the owner is Chris from PA. he started this project long ago, but today posted up some pix of the car right after paint and decals with much assembly work still ahead.

what strikes me is his level of detail, and his attitude of no-expense-spared. you rarely see this in our small community. i believe he is going to end his project with perhaps one of the finest examples of any turbo mopar, in terms of the quality of the restoration, combined with accuracy and attention to detail, all honoring the 1986 GLHS cars.

i am looking forward to the completion of his GLHS as it may set a new level of quality we can all admire and shoot for.

kudos to Chris!! here's his link:

Looks to be central PA based on the terrain in the background? That looks to be unbelievably well done though!!! Is he on the board?

I've been watching his posts on Team Omni and the SDML. If I recall correctly the car is down in Arizona and Neil Emiro is doing the work for him. It looks to be coming along nicely!

The reflection does look a bit like Neil. And the countryside is similar to the pics I have of his old Silver R/T. Looks like a fantastic job is being done on it!!!:eyebrows:

Chris did mention the work was being done by Neil.....he also wrote he plans to have this car at the national SDAC events, so maybe that will be 2008.

There's going to be quite a competition for the 86 GLHS class in the next couple of years. This makes for the second GLHS being rotisserie restored that I know of that will be finished shortly. Plus you add in Don Pennington and Marcus's GLHS's and we will have the four best looking '86 GLHS's around. :nod:
