I remember the Ghetto Cuda! Was pretty solid, all things considered.

Its on! If you are going to roll your Cuda to Mats 2012, I'll put mine together so I can join you. Looking forward to it!

Data tag, I used aircraft paint stripper on it then lightly hit the stubborn spots in my media blaster, then lightly coated the underside with a rust converter/inhibitor



If you look closely you will see 3 71 lightly stamped above the R11 and V21. Car was built 12-71?

Thanks, I am pretty stoked. Small issue with the trunk...it was painted with the exhaust hanger support plates in. No biggie. I'll remove em touch up under them and refinish them
