we plan to do some engine mods, not sure what...big wheels and tires, nice stereo system, repaint in a dark metallic graphite or sublime and then drive the wheels off it! as a show driver

I've never seen a cuda with a thunderbolt hood scoop before. That's a tad different.

Good for you! It sounds like you're doing exactly what you should with a Mopar -- ENJOYING IT! Have fun and share pictures with us as you make your updates.

I think swapping out the hood to a shaker is a good call.
