Just a quick update to whoever is still left following this thread, LOL. I took a trip down to the shop a week back for a final inspection of the car. For the most part everything came out real nice. As soon as I get some pics uploaded I will post them. We got some nice outside shots of the car. The only bad part of the trip was that we brought the NY weather to Georgia. Car should be home soon and then my winter project shall begin. Looking forward to it.

This is the moment most of you have been waiting for. Photos of the actual car. Keep in mind I still have to do a lot of detaling and assembly when it comes home. Here is the Cuda out in afternoon sun last month when I was down south. Sorry for the delay. Enjoy.

Looks fantastic...Please be very careful drilling the holes for the belt molding NOW that the car is painted...

One "pet peeve" I can never understand why people install the dash without first completing the assembly 100%

It's so much easier to work on it on the bench then when it's in the car....again just a personal peeve...

Have fun this Winter

Early '70 'Cudas typically did not have the door belt moldings. I can't remember what the SPD of this car was (I looked ino buying it before the present owner picked it up).

Wow...you have long way to go. Disappointing to me considing how long this has been going on.

Someone hasn't done this before judging by what I see.

Good luck with it...

Alan, the car never came with the belt moldings. I have a pic of it when it was brand new and they were not on the car then. Again, I have a lot of work to do, and the dash may have to come out again. Your right, it should not have been installed without having everything on it. Thank you all for the comments.

To answer the most important question. My final write up for AMCR will happen as soon as the car is home. Then we can conclude this thing once and for all and move on to someone elses thread, LOL..

Agreed. I do have a long way to go. I am not going to rush to put it back together. I will make sure everything is done right. These thing always take longer than expected. The redo of the bottom was what dragged this thing on and that there was one person working on this car most of the time.

To big, LOL. They are coming off and the 15X7 rallyes w/ polyglas are going on. If anyone wants those tires when they come off, let me know. They have about 100 miles on them.

They look identical to my 30-some year old, 'new' m/t g-60's.

Car looks great!

There are a number of 'Cudas with SPDs during the first part of October '69 that had broadcast sheets that were printed on '69 forms.
For some reason these 'Cudas DID NOT have M31 - "belt mouldings" installed or codes stamped on fender tags.

This would be the first LA assembled car that I've seen with this issue.

i took a look at the fender tag and it does have M31 on it, however and I know this next comment could start another thread. When Galen did the decode on my tag, he made a note on the sheet about the M31 and it said something about them missing on some cudas.
