My wife wants to know what I want for Christmas.  I think I'll tell her to watch this video!

Looks nice! I'd like to see more details of the suspension. I'm wondering how they strengthened up a vert to use/take that much power without folding up?

They put a block of wood under the accelerator peddle.   :smilielol:

Seriously, that's one nice ride.   :droolingbounce:

ummmm....well, I liked it righ up until I saw the interior, and specifcially the dash...WHAT THE HELL happened there!!!

And I got to be honest, some of the fit and finish looks just ok.

I wouldn't do that to a rare Cuda drop-top myself, but it does look good.  For what they probably spent making the driveline etc. work in the E Body they oculd have just bought a Viper and restored the Cuda.  I think they were going for similar gauge placement / dash finish as the Viper has but totally agree it doesn't translote well in the Cuda, the main gauges are spaced too far apart, too much blank dash for my taste.
