Having fun playing with some more aluminum. I plan on some aluminum upper door hinges ,glove box door and some other parts too.

looking good :thumbsup:

Rear taillight Mods. In keeping with the theme of keeping the transitions as smooth as possible, I made new tailight bezels and lenses that are flush instead of stock.

I made a latch cover from 6061 aluminum sheet,to cover up that huge gap between the radiator support and header panel and it will also keep the air directed thru the radiator. I plan on adding the hood release and hood pop up spring

I installed my Griffin radiator and gor to thinking, I could get some more air thru the lower part of the bumper without being to noticeable . I cut the area out from the bumper that had the front license plate and added some dimpled holes

Eh, I dunno. Those bumper mods look a little too much like some quick, Saturday night oval track mods made on the fly. Yes, the dimples clean them up compared to plain old holes, but they look like a band aid solution to a problem you probably don't even have.

On The contrary the look real cool, Thank you for your opinion

I think I wanna see it in primer.

True, my opinion, your car. If you're happy, my opinion is inmaterial. Just providing some unsolicted feedback.

You know what they say about opinions.....



Keep 'em to yourself unless they're solicited... as in "hey! What do you guys think about this...."

You know what they say

ps I like the front bumber

some work on the shaker air box and intake tubes

I am still waiting on a 60 deeg tube from spectre to connect the air box to the shaker base

Looks real nice! I like how your making the shaker functional!

Thank you Rick , I have more pictures available to see at http://s1187.photobucket.com/user/cu...?sort=3&page=1

Nice work

Thank you Marty. Ur car (the second chance Camaro ) Is coming along..:gitrdun:

Your welcome - and it's getting closer

Teardown for bodywork and paint. Now the fun begins :drowninga:

There is some awesome work in here, can't believe I missed it! Keep it up!!

John, car looks great! Keep up good work,buddy!

very inspiring :thumbsup:

I miss having access to machine tools.

Those INDY valve covers are going to look great

Awesome work. Love the cai and the shaker scoop.

Great work! Looks amazing and coming along well.

Thanks to J&C Auto Restoration in Murrells Inlet SC for gently media blasting the body and applying the epoxy primer.Next is quarter panel istallation and panel fitment

Great project, I love this bodystyle. There's not a lot cooler than a Cuda G machine.

Looks great!

Making the AMD Quarters fit better. The Sail panel quarter seam was but welded by hammer and dollied the flange on the AMD quarter and Tig ,Butt weld to the body seam. The AMD trunk lid rear corners did not follow the contours of the quarter so material has removed and added to make it fit better plus other fitment issues (see pics)

Definitely Cool Cuda
 

Just read through your build thread. Lots of neat ideas and some great marketing possibilities for all those aluminum parts you built. If you have already you should make those parts available for other Cuda builder's out there. I have seen gas piston aluminum trunk system on a Cuda yet. This is definitely a car to watch to see how it turns out. Will be very nice.

Good luck on a great build.

Getting a little closer

Made a Aluminum pistol grip handle with rose wood grips for the T56 Magnum

Nice work on the car, really like the handle:D

awesome work!!!

Its been a long road, All the bodywork has been completed. After next week the Cuda will be painted Indigo Black

Congrats! I'd say that's a major milestone. Be sure to post up after paint, too.

Very nice work and I like the custom handle.

sweet cuda build!

Nice to see you getting to paint. It sure is a long road. Nice!!!! I've watched your build through all its ups and downs. Can't wait to see it shiny.

Great work I just went thru this whole thread, I'm not a mopar man but this CUDA is top notch. And your also from SC.
