Well the picture looks good... I know the feeling too well, I have a 70 RR and a 1966 Hemi that are next on the line to meet. I also have my 70 RT challenger 440-6 that needs to be finished (all together, just needs to bugs and minor issues worked out). Too little time and too many projects. Now I am looking for a 37-47 pickup to do a street rod... like I have time or $$ for that... its called an addiction for a reason.

I have been doing a lot of work on the car this past summer, got the engine built, revcieved the EFI 6 pac, set up the hydraulic clutch MC, etc. I will post some pictures later. Right now I am working on the PS system. I want to run a remote reservoir system. I am going to run a hydraulic slave cylinder for the clutch fork. still have to figure out the wheels and tires. I have to run 17's at least because of the brakes. I am looking at some Mustang wheels.

Obviously it has been awhile since I posted here due to many factors, however I thought I would try and provide some updates. First, I haven't been working on the car for awhile because I became distracted with a 52 Dodge pickup. I picked it for virtually nothing and had to reconstruct it as it was disassembled. After slaving on it for about a month or so, I had it up and running and then discovered (read rediscovered) that 50's era pickups were never intended to be driven in the 21st century; with max speed of 45 I quickly became a little disillusioned with it but then came upon a 56 Desoto with a 330 CI Hemi, so.... back apart the truck came, the engine off to the machine shop etc.

So, as it stands now, the 52 is undergoing surgery with a 88 Dakota from clip, E body rear end and then the 330 + 727 will be installed. Should I ever happen to get this somewhat done I will get back onto the Cuda.

I did happen to score some Neon SRT-4 seats for it which I think will work well. I also made a center console for it to house the stereo since that spot is now occupied by a switch panel. The car has taken on more of a "race" car flavor which is cool, but now I am beginning to think I should put some type of cage in it, more for the shoulder belts than anything else. I wanted the interior to remain fairly stock, but that is evaporating somewhat. Anyway, here is a picture of the car, basically as it is today.
