My brother traded his blue 68 Cuda for a friends gold 68 Cuda. He did it because he built his Cuda for super gas years ago and it sits very low and has a tube frame. The gold Cuda is just back halfed and sits like a Super Stock car. And my brother wants to run Nostalgia Super Stock with a 68 Cuda and our good friend wants to run Super Gas with a 68 Cuda. So it made sense they traded as both are very nice built cars. They kept their own engines and trannys. All my brother has to do is change the hood on his now gold Cuda to run NSS once he gets his drivetrain in it. Ron

They are both very nice cars, be hard for me to choose one over the other.

Thanks for the kind replies. It did make sense to trade as over the years both of them changed what class they wanted to race. My brother really came to love the NSS racing as I do over the years as back years ago he wanted to race super gas. And vise-versa for our good buddy so yes they both made out good. I don't know if it was a straight up trade or some money was exchanged but they are both very happy. Myself I really liked the blue Cuda my brother built but I love the NSS look of the 60's and 70's SS cars so I really prefer the looks of the gold Cuda and how it sits since it fits the bill of the cars I love as does my brother.
