I can't remember the last time i have had so much fun on a build, as i have had working with Vic on his project. (Carbon Cuda)But when the car leaves my shop the fun is not yet over. You will find me at the track with him for the rest of the year getting this thing dialed in perfect and hopefully getting Vic into the winner's circle.

I read somewhere on here that the car will weigh 3200lbs?????? Well, that might be true if you add up all the bags of jellybeans you've eaten during this project. Honestly, it really does look great and can't wait to get it to the track and see those front tires in the air!!!

Jeff it was good seeing you and Vic again at the track last Saturday. You guys are almost regulars at 131 this year.

The Cuda looks good,can't wait to see it at the track.

Little update........progress is slow with me wiring a car.
So far, I have the starter relay, MSD box, Dedenbear delay,
tail lights, fuel pump, Biondo RPM switch for air shifter and
line lock wired and tested. A lot of zip-ties.

I also noticed, I didn't have any pictures of my lightweight aluminum Hitman seat brackets.

wow, you gotta carpet in there! I like it, but how come you have it in there?
(I may end up using some in my car just for driving on the street to keep some of the noise and heat down)

Your car's coming along! wont be long now.

I can't imagine it added 3 lbs. for everything that gets covered.
The old 340 will never know the difference.

WOW Vic,, the car look's impressive.


Light travels faster than the speed of sound,,,this is why some people seem bright untill you hear them speak.

Whose carbon did you use ? I have Neffy and the 3m DI NOC getting ready to start this weekend




Fred....I think this carbon fiber print is on Oracal vinyl.
I'm not sure of name brand for the actual design??
If I'd used the wrap on the exterior, they said I'd probably
have to get the 3M vinyl. I went with the cheaper stuff.

Very nice Vic...
Im at the same point as you on the wiring, that crap always goes slower than I think it should. But this is the first time I have taken the extra step to make sure all ends are perfect and even shrink wraped.....
Very nice looking car your going to have.

Thanks Bob. If I ever have to do this again, I'll start with about
6 rolls of different colored wire and plan a little better.

A few more wires and we can put the dash in and start on something
held together with bolts.
