Very nice ride!!!!!!

Is that Lime light (FJ5) or Sassy Grass Green(FJ6)??

That is the exact colour I want to paint my 74 cuda but with just the hood painted flat black.

Did find 70-72 rear bumper brackets or did you have to fabricate new ones?

Do you have any engine picture's, love to see some

The paint is J5 limelight. and yes it is now 440 powered.  i got a bumper and brackets of a 70 cuda in South dakota, but i still need the bumperettes for it as you can see. and i need to take more pictures and post them for sure. thanks for all your kind words, it means a lot since i have done absolutly all the work myself. from drivetrain to body and paint. 100% my work. it was my first resto and i have learned so much. i know how to do everything but have not done it all on one car. and i am happy about my results.. putting all that work in yourself will make you think twice about getting rid of it that is for sure. i have had many offers for it already since it is the only Cuda in my city. Pop 80,000. so it is kinda rare in these parts. but it comes with a price. i cant say to the Police that it was that other Limegreen Cuda that laid them patches of rubber down the street  ;D ;D ;D

don't mind the tail panel and windows they have still not been cleaned off from the wetsanding of the clearcoat  :)
