Are you home on leave right now? If you are you can come by and check out "The Cuda Guy Project", I know you said you have seen it on the base. I would HIGHLY recommend sending your car to Tony at L.A. Miller Restorations of Ohio. Tony is a member here, he is known for the "Show Finish" he puts on the cars he restores. His handle is fishin4cuda. Like I said if your home I can meet up with you sometime this weekend and pass along Tony's info if your interested.
