Replacement fender fitted (or not) to the door ended up buying an aftermarket which turned out to be another bunch of rework after the car was painted. I will show pictures later of that rework later.

Sent it out for Blast, body work and Paint. Show Quality Restoration in Longview. Great shop.The guy came to the house picked it up in an enclosed trailer, did the work and delivered it the same way. Took about 4months.

Thanks Dave, One thing I will do on my next car is get as much done ahead of time while the car is out for paint. Lessons learned.

I don't remember you saying what your doing for a headliner. I'm pretty sure the 73 Cuda's used the same Yorkshire material(looks like corduroy) that the 73-74 Challengers did. It's definatly more expensive then the perforated style(used up through 72)but if your going for a stock look, it would be nice to use the right material. I got mine from Dante.

Are you going to black out the rad support? There is a picture of a 72 Cuda on Cuda-Challenger.com that shows the factory spray pattern perfectly. Let me know if you want me to look for it. Keep the pics coming.

The Passenger front fender was an after market and was replaced at the paint shop. AMD hasn't quite perfected the fitment to the door yet. The only bad thing was that it got painted prior to working out the proper fit. Paint shop was real good they reshot the fender after Mopes70 (Charlie) cured the fitment issues.
