Welcome to the board.  I am glad you found us!!!!!  I am sure you could car less, but I am 1/2 Dutch.  I hear it is beautiful in The Netherlands, I hope to visit there someday.  Wow that Cuda is NICE!!!!!!!!  Looks so clean and new.  Did you eliminate the 3 piece trunk/quarter moulding or did you get the car without it?  Those mouldings are hard to find, but still llooks awesome without them.  Great resto job, did you do it yourself or did you bring it somewhere to have it done?  Once again, glad to have you here.

Thanks everyone for the compliments.

cudahob, good to know you speak Dutch. Wognum is a small village about 25 mile above Amsterdam.

DJVCuda, you don’t hear much  American V8 engines here. But the people here in Wognum get used to the sound. We have a nice group of friend here with classic american musclecars. And ones a year we have a American car meeting  http://www.allamericansunday.nl/

Rev-It-Up, here are some pictures from the resto and from friends rides. I’m not the only mopar in town. Some friends of my have also very nice cars. 1969 Charger R/T (we are restoring it now) 1970 Road Runner 440+6 (matching numbers, pistol grip, air grabber), 1970 440 Challenger, 1970 Charger R/T (matching numbers), 1973 340 Cuda, 1968 440 Charger, 1969 383 Coronet. And I have some friend here with non mopar cars. So not bad for a small village (about 4000 people) here in the Netherlands.

We have also a moparclub here in the Netherlands and there are a few nice moparmeetings here and in Germany and Belgium. See for pictures and info. http://www.mopar.nl/     http://moparshop.de/ 

April, the 3 piece trunk/quarter moulding were badly damaged and as you said those mouldings are hard to find especially here in Holland. I did the resto myself except the body and paintjob. And April, do you speak Dutch?

Great I have family in Amsterdam.  :thumbs:

Hier wordt alleen Nederlands gesproken. Er wordt hier geen Engels gesproken.  :laughing:  ::)

Looks like a great group of Mopars over there, love to visit again some day soon. 

Simply love your `Cuda.

Dank u wel voor de fotos.

The 440+6 RR and the white Charger R/T are sold new in Swiss. The blue Cuda came in '73 with an American soldier (stayed in Germany) and the other cars are shipped in the late '80 early '90 from the us to the netherlands.

Thats cool,My 73 challenger is an export car,I sometimes wonder where it was supposed to go or why it didnt make it to its destination.Maybe it was ordered by a military guy that never made it back home
