Wow, what an amazing video!!! I felt like I was right there with you guys the whole time, smelling the fumes from the Petro 94, and hearing all of the sounds that are there during the first start of the engine in the 500. Hearing the good vibrations from the open headers, man it just doesn't get any better than that. I had a smile on my face the during the entire video and a tear in my eyes as well. George you did an incredible job on this video, everything was spot on, the camera angles the sound, and I didn't even mind sitting on the tire machine, lol. You made me feel like I was part of the entire experience, and I thank you for that. Nick & Manny thank you so much for all of your hard work over the entire build. The 500 looks better than it ever has, and you have exceeded my expectations throughout the build. Another muscle car saved by Nick's Garage, The best little garage in Laval Quebec, with a giant reputation. The ending of the video was very special for me, and 100 Bikes For Kids, thank you so much.

For those of us who have drove a limited edition performance car off a fore court is making memories, it makes a man happy for the rest of our lives. But mainly Nick and his team to accomplish this to such detail is priceless, WELL DONE !

Makes me think of my first car. It was put together from a wrecked 65 Ford Galaxie and a stripped 67 Mercury Marquis. The engine was a 352 T-bird engine and had a lot of miles on it. Once I got it warmed up, it would start with just a bump on the starter. I wish I still had it and could put it in top shape again. I would build the engine to original specs because it was too wild for me when it was worn out. I once had the car on an icy hill turned about 45 degrees across the road with the speedometer reading about 85 mph. She inched up the hill with my brother screaming that we were going to die. That old girl would flat out fly. I only took her to top end once and she was well over 120 after coasting down for about a tenth of a mile. That broke me from wanting to race because I nearly went off the left side of the highway when I let off the gas. I really miss that car.

This show is on par with the first start of your Challenger. I have followed this build from the start and you have done a fantastic job on this car. The back storey is phenomenal, Eugene you have a dream ride❤😎. I don't know who was more excited,Nick,Eugene, or George lolol. George it was good to see you on camera. It's the most we've seen of you✌. This show was great. Congratulations to all involved. Not an easy task but the rewards are for life. Thanks so much. Time for a poutine 😄

Great video, great car! Eugene: I’ve been on the Lexington for a weekend with our Scout Troop 303 from Springtown, TX. Just a super experience for everyone. There’s a legend that the ship is haunted, so I played a trick on the boys, and hid in a location that was (a little) off-limits, and waited for them to come to that area in the unsupervised walking tour. While they were looking down an unlit hallway, I slowly, like a zombie, stepped into the open and they all freaked out. So funny. Some of them still believe it wasn’t me. 😂 I’m retired USAF. I’m guessing that you were a pilot? I wouldn’t mind hearing your story if you’re willing to talk about it. Cheers and congratulations!

Hello To Nick and the team who poured in so much blood, sweat and love into this beautiful Charger 500. The car looks like a million dollars. The paint colour is amazing and the decal over the rear 1/4's and trunk helps set it off, the chrome trim as George was moving past the drivers door and it reflected the light back into the camera I just fell in love right then. Hearing that big 440ci engine start up for the first time in 47 years was just music to the ears. I could feel that big mopar rumbling in my lounge room. My 1510 watts hifi made it sound real and as if I was there with you all. Fantastic journey Nick and the team at Indy Autos has let us share in. Hello Eugene, Thank you for giving us the privilege in joning in the special event of restoring such a rare peice of US motoring history. Owning a car since new 53 years ago and then restoring it to new condition was a wonderful thing you could do for Nicks Garage, his team and us RU-vid subscribers. It was no small undertaking to spend all those resources to restore the car, but look at the Charger 500 now! I followed along every video to see this dusty old car turn from dents and rusty parts to what is now the sweetest, coolest, rarest Charger 500 to ever rumble the world as I am sure it will over the next many years Hearing the pride in your voice over the work done on your rare car brought tears to my eyes. I hope you injoy your beautiful car for many years to come. To Nick, I love the shirt your wearing, "Peace Love & Muscle Cars". Much love and respect To Nick and the team Indy Auto
