New Guy from Canada
« on: August 29, 2007 - 11:11:51 AM »
Hi to all.  I've finally got my baby a 1973 cuda, she makes her debut hopefully next fall as a 440 6-pack car.  She started as a 318.  Looking forward to picking some brains for info or troubleshooting.  Thanks in advance.  The pic is my wife scrubbing off years of filth last spring.

Yep, got the motor when I got the car(see pic),  Other pic is interior during teardown, you can the the drivers floor is completely shot.  Dash is completely out since this was taken.  Rear pic shows a trailer hitch.   I would have found something else to put a hitch on, but that's only me.  Newest pics are at home.
