I was asked about the Planet Color paint via PM. I was planning on posting the result of testing wax on the test panel. It comes off but there is a glistening effect that the paint has untouched that the wax seems to reduce. Not seen in the photo. The upper left corner of this corner is waxed.

I went into a container with some old stuff in it ... I took some shots of the Cuda's original? parts

wheel cylinders

Water pump, the car was built 12-71. The engine is dated 8-71 IIRC

A section of ribbed hose and partial font example

Brent might like this idea.

I had this made years ago for my Duster I believe and disregarded the date and recycled it on the Cuda

What did that cost to have made?

I don't recall the cost but it wasn't expensive. I had a stamp shop that was local to me at that time make it.

Stamping with paint can be tricky it takes practice

George took this today. short video

It left two marks on the side walk that will be there for some time

EDIT: a friend sent me this link. Notice it's not in the grass/show. I snuck in the back and just parked behind the last row of cars for an easy escape
Mopar fest car show

I deal with all types to get parts, it's more work than building the car.
The auction showed this, a gauge with the correct silver pro comp bezel


Do these gauges bezels match? Funny they matched in his auctions. Now he's telling me they only make one style bezel without understanding what I'm conveying

Another ebay transaction gone poorly. A week passed after I paid the seller, and there was no message, no tracking number provided and no package.

So I inquired if the item had shipped yet. No response. I sent another message to inquire the following day to which he responded he was sorry he was out of town, and the item would ship Monday.

Today I get this.....

Another ebayer whose on the ball

It's a single small clip that he charges $3 to ship

I had an idea on how I might find the original owner. I believe I already have his full name, but unfortunately his last name is very common in the Alb area.



WISH ME LUCK

I may start a project posting for my survivorish V21 - redoing the engine bay (with factory blackout on the cowl and other areas), stock appearing stroker 340 and front suspension. Would you mind if I posted in your thread because our cars are similar? I wouldn't be posting a million pics, but it could add to the '72 V21 database..lol

Man I've been waiting a long time to see pictures of your car.

Post pictures in this thread: https://board.moparts.org/ubbthreads/show...t=2#Post3880794

Almost ready to have some fun.... (no worries the #'s engine is stashed)

I've only seen 2 others in person, and I've never seen one in a magazine (other than an RJ cars ad). A lot of mopar fans don't know this option existed.

Roller cam and lifters (and an adjustable timing gear set)
