....this is where all the action is going to happen.....oh yea baby

Unless you are 2ft tall, there's not much action that will take place in that area.

Buy a B-Body: Use the back seat

Buy an E-Body: Rent a room.

If you don't you will just spend the money on stiches & band aids anyway...
fixing all the wounds inflicked by the back edge of the center console

The "New" barrel cuda is looking good...
Someone will get a really nice car... maybe not the same car Ma Mopar built, but a nice one none the less.

Ilike seeing progress on anyones car, especially when they start out as a rusty terd like that one was...now its beautiful got to give props for that! If I had half of his ambition and time to work on my own stuff everything would be done! Like it or not alan is doing a great job...and just because it was rusted and repaired it doesnt make it any less of a car! Not everyone has the luck to buy a pristine piece nor are all rar and valuable cars in pristine condition. So what if he fixed it with all the right and expensive parts and wants to share...maybe its an ego boost but so is all the people that wallow in their own misery and are just nasty lil cretins on this board! They feel better about themselves when they put somone else down, as they dont have the skill ability or money to build a car that nice...so if you dont like it dont rear the post, its obvious what it is and noone is forcing you to look, read, or comment!

For the love of Dog man, what do you have against that beautiful thing? Honestly, at this point, I'd say that thing is light years better than a brand new one would have been. Give 'em a break homeboy!

---

No joke. Nothing worse than a self-righteous know it all. This car while more ambitious than most around here might do looks great. I've enjoyed the assembly pics.

---

i've got nothing against the car , what he has done , both personally and by check , its the all the fawning and the 24/7 MARKETING in this OBVIOUS FOR SALE AD that i find odd

i thought you had a line of a mile long waiting to pay you for this thing ???

Nice to see the 2 picture rule waved, so we can all witness this amazing restoration. I heard Alan is rushing to bring it to the auction in the desert coming up.

At least it won't be a perfumed pig.

Just asking, but how much $$$$ has it taken to get it to this point and what do you expect to get out of it when it's sold?

Too Much....and Not enough...

So far the investment is well into the six figures...(I was going to post a complete breakdown when finished)

An orange one similar to it sold at auction in Oct 07 for $199,800.00 CDN.

---

Was that one found on barrels too?
I must have missed it, do you have any pics?

I still think you should have made it into a convertible:

Now why would he do that when the roof is original to the car
It’s a rare piece

---

Ya without that roof... the "original car" percentage would have been out of the "whole numbers"

Still it looks good... and he got it back together in short order.

Montclaire....

Im guessing you havent followed this thread on his 71 Challenger Vert he's restoring if you think the Barrel Cuda is getting negative remarks, that thing is horrible with them! And he's done such a remarkable job on having the whole body restored.

I think people are just jealous, he's a mopar restorer that is doing a great thing for the mopar community---restoring trashed mopars, isnt hiding a thing and is 100% honest about everything he does and all of his intentions and yet, he still gets bashed---such a shame!

BTW Allan, if i had the money you'd be doing my 70 R/T right now....id love to be able to tell people i had Allan restore it for me!

---

This stuff is why I get on here in the first place. The work he's doing/ having done is remarkable and the pictures are very usefull.
Thanks alot for them Alan.

Why sell it after all that work? Why not keep it and enjoy it ?
