I’ve always said autobody painters are artists (the really good ones, that is). But, these guys take it to the anal level.
Also...what a tape job!

. In August 2018, engineers working on the rover’s chassis (the frame of the spacecraft) “””
I’ve lived sixty years without ever seeing the word ‘chassis’defined in an article...I guess the streak hadda’ end sometime...

Put a Hemi Engine in it. Make sure to paint the Engine MOPAR Blue.

Wouldn’t it have been simpler if they just attached replica parts and then painted it?

When they turn over the restored car to the owner, do they ever reveal what the total cost to the owner was?

You are correct. The 426 Hemis in the A Body Cars were painted Orange, 69 to 73.

Yeah, I watch the show.
Mark is way out there but he knows his stuff. I started watching when I accidentally came across the Show and realized Mark looks and acts exactly like my Late B-I-L and best buddy. It is uncanny.
Just realized that Dave Rea left the Show and has his own MOPAR Restoration Business now.
When I hit the Lotto one of those guys will be building me a 68 Charger Restomod with a brand new Hellcat Drivetrain.
Until then, I cruise around in my Red 2015 Challenger.
