Well Bob your right no one gets the keys. They had me pull it on and out off the machine. They were great to work with. That was appreciated. Are our cars truely ever really done? This one is close!. I need to order a mopar battery I just keep putting it off. Don't know why its really sad when you open the hood and see a Kirkland special sitting in the Mopar tray. I will order one today. Im pushing myself to get this one show ready before jumping into the B body.

I do appreciate all the help from you and all the other Moparts members. This was my first full restoration and I'm looking forward to getting into the next one.

After extensive paint work I'd only run a gel cell. I have personally looked down at the gauge to see it was overcharging and it was too late my new paint was stained and ruined.

And a huge thanks to you as well, you helped me on allot of questions too

Here is a shot of the car on the site where the shop is going to be built. Im waiting for the county permiting process. Fun Fun Fun I got about 200 miles on the car now. We went out yesterday with a friend of mine who has a 70 Red Cuda Convertible. Nice ride. We got alot of looks going down the freeway side by side..

Here is a shot of the two Cudas

Looks great!

Took the car out on its first long run. Took it up to the 31 annual Mopar Roundup in Everett. Thats about 140 miles round trip. Nice show Had a blast. Nice photo on the Mopar magazine Spring edition. Even picked up some parts for my next resto a 66 Charger Black 4 speed,

Nice shot for the Mopar magazine.

What a great day makes it all worth while. The car is running sweet ran flawless up and back.

Cuda's running sweet !! Put nearly 1200 miles on it this summer, took it to several shows and now she is tucked away for Winter..

Shes Tucked away!!!

Glad to see the finished product. I have been away from restoration for a while. We had some blizzards and an awful wildfire season that has kept me busy. Glad to see it turned out so well!

Great looking car and build!

Thanks guys for all the positive comments. Looking at another project. Will keep you posted! The camera makes me look 10 pounds heavier. oh wait I am that much heavier.

The Seattle Times an area local paper posted a picture and an article about the Cuda "The people and the cars they Love"

Cool glad to see you're enjoying it. Someone just sent me a link, to an article (on a local mopar show) on line and a photo of my car was in it but not actually in the show

Does the following describe you too?:

I'll be headed through the garage somedays, and if I won't have to move any cars to get it out.... it'll go on all kinds of errands. Going to buy PCV pipe, or car parts has never been so much fun

That is a beautiful Cuda, Enjoy

I'm glad you went with the road wheels even though the car didn't originally come with them. They look perfect.
