sick of sanding
 

well my finger prints are gone now and all I have to show for it is some shiny paint, wow is black a pain. Its been awhile since I posted but we've been busy as hell, here's what been going on. It runs (yeah) I painted everything besides the roof and the trunk, due to the summer being almost over thats all I'm going to do with it for now and try to get it on the road and work the bugs out, I'm going to put the stripes on it this week and shave the door handles and drip rails this winter, but enough talk heres some pics. We'll be at the madison goodguys show on aug 15-17. see ya telly

Okay...

Car looks sick....

sometime ago I realized my goal to take it on the power tour wasnt going to happen, then the car craft nat. and it sure wasnt looking like I would even get to the good guys show one hour from me, so I had to make a choice get it done enough to work the bugs out and enjoy it for a month or waite intill next year and I'm sick of not having any fun so its coming out!!!! and I sure didnt want it to look like crap so I painted some of it, its only paint and I own a bodyshop I'll get my paint rep to give me some free paint, oh and this thing is far from done this winter its getting some cool body mods custom front and rear valances and maybe rocker extensions. All of you know how it is I just want to drive it!!!!!

Had to move some stuff around this morning so I took a pic outside

wow

great looking ride..how could you not enjoy that !
nice work:thumbsup:

radrambler

Very, very nice...wow. Are the rim faces going to be black or staying with the full-polished?
Really makes me want to get mine done...
Looks great!

John

Great job :hail: :hail: :cheers:

Awesome!

Alex

I'm not sure the car looks really good how it is, I guess everyones feedback will help me decide.

That type of wheel I would leave all polished, If you had 3 piece competition style wheels then I would color match or do a dark grey center.

Tonny

awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't help you there--it would look great either way. Maybe a photoshop would help you decide. Congrats, man. You did an awesome job!

Enjoy!

John

Car looks great.

I wouldn't touch the wheels. The car needs a little bit of bling to make it stand out. If you black out the wheels I think the car will lose the look.

fab 5
 

thanks for all the replies, I recieved a fab 5 today at the Madison Goodguys show I'll get some pics out on Monday, I'm freaking stoked the car isnt even completely finished and the response has been awsome.

Someone here said they'd give up their 69 Camaro for a Cuda. I'd have to agree. Yours is damn sweet.

gotta be the wheels - oh wait - gotta be the stance - oh wait - gotta be the whole package

Congrads - car looks awesome

Car does look awesome!!!
GOOD JOB!:thumbsup:

car looks great man! next to chevy's, mopar muscle is definantly where its at! and the rims look great the way they are, i wouldnt touch ':thumbsup: em!

i can't believe i didn't see this thread sooner. your car is gorgeous. one of my favorite body styles. too bad they are so expensive. i love the wheels and the black paint looks great

well sunday was a very typical day in a hot rodders life, pulled it out of the trailer and guess what it didnt start so after getting pulled into the fab 5 parking area I went to work, I had a dead short to the fuel pump somehow I managed to smash the fuel pump wire between the tank and the floor pan not a bad fix but it was a little embarassing, other than that we had a great weekend lots of compliments and about a half a box of buisness cards gone. thanks for all the replies I'll kept posting as I make more mods. see ya telly

WOW :wow: what a BADASS Cuda :hail:

Looks great!! :thumbsup:

:thumbsup: Gorgeous!!!!!

That is just Brutal looking... Love it! :thumbsup:

Go Mopar!

:thumbsup: Whew ! One killer looking fish !! I hope it's got one very nasty sounding exhaust note to go with that wicked look.

Jim

I love it! Just looks so tough. Definitely keep the wheels polished :thumbsup:

Just wondering do you have any plans for side mirrors? My project is very similiar, but I'm not sure what to do. Our michigan law says I have to have a driver's side mirror. Not sure what to use....one driver...or both...and what kind? What did you have in mind for your project?
Thanks

John

:wow: Man that is just AWSOME!!!!! You have the stance perfect,and the black is beautiful:faint:
Mario

I love it!!! its super nice and it looks very straight as well.

I wouldnt blacken out the wheels..

I'm not sure what I'm doing for side mirrors, I probably just leave them off unless I find something cool.

hood skirting
 

well I decided to clean up the engine compartment a little more, thanks to some cool fasteners and hood pins from the ring bros. Not done but getting there I'll post some pics when its done. see ya telly

yep - that is what it needed

looks awesome

Looking good! I like your work in progress approach! Nothing like enjoing a killer car while you make some changes!! :thumbsup:

It's pretty damn hard getting my own car done with all the customer crap in the way so this thing would never see daylight unless I built it this way, and theres more to come in the future!!!!
