Default Project Updates and Pictures as of 4/6/12

Hey everyone. Here are a few more updated pictures of our current cuda build. We finalized our rear section of floor pans screwed them all in a welded them all up. Also we fabricated our trunk shelves acess covers and installed them as well as final welding up our filler neck on our Rick's Stainless Steel tank. Alot of progress has been made and we are going to be updated it as soon as possible. Take a look at this set of pictures and give us some feedback.

Default Project Updates and Pictures as of 4/9/12

Hey everyone here are a few more build updates and pictures of our cuda build. You can see a side profile shot of the back half of the car with the quarter removed of our trunk shelf covers installed. We fabricated the top edge of the quarter panel to resemble the stock style revel due to the fact AMD only makes quarters with a sail panel. Also we fabricated a drain tube out of Stainless Steel to control how the flow water drains from the convertible top. Instead of leaking down the wheel well and filling up the quarter we have redirected it to flow through the tube and right infront of the wheel well. We have the whole back half all squared up and are waiting to make our decklid hindge assembly. But in the mean time we recieved our side mount brakeing system from Kugal, our Lokar E-brake assembly, and our Vintage Air mock up system. So we fabricated all the mounting tabs. With some alterations we got everything to fit under the dash. Take a look at this new set of pictures and let us know what you think.

Default Project Updates and Pictures as of 7/16/12

Hey everyone we haven't been updating as much as we should but we have made some serious progress on our 70 Cuda in the past couple of months. Here are a few of the over seeing pictures of some of the fabrication we have been up to. First of all we modified our Hedman S.S. headers by removing the ball end style clamp and replace it with a V-band style to keep the exhaust tucked up in the car. Second we fabricated our custom exhaust hanger brackets and finalized our exhaust system from the headers to the mufflers. Next we fabricated our battery box for our Odyssey batteries and finalized our welding on the sub rails. We also welded in our front sections of floor pans. Finally we had our new deck lid hinges water jetted out. We finalized the machining and fabricated our mounts and got the deck lid swinging. No prop rods here we used all gas shocks. Take a look at these few pictures and tell us what you think.

It looks very good. You do nice work. I want to see the gas shocks/hinges all assembled- those turned out really nice. Keep at it

Oh, and the stainless drain tube is genius.
