Welcome to the board. Wish it were better circumstances for you. Hope to see more of the car soon.

I'll try to get some good video of its maiden voyage down the drag strip this week.... I sure hope I don't suck at driving

Sorry for your dads passing. I'm sure he would be proud of you taking it back to the track. It's a great memorial from your dad! You should submit a picture of the Cuda for our calendar for 2015.  :wavingflag: :smokin:

Got some vids to edit....but the bottom line was 8.64@84.

ET was a lil better than expected but mph was 1 or 2 off what I'd hoped.

The tires were horrible and two 4 barrels just didn't work out a the hole but pulled good on top end.

Hi Tony, I lost my dad a little over a month ago, I'm sorry for your loss. I think you'll do your dad proud, it's a beautiful car.  Where did you get the flag frame? I was presented with dad's flag and really want to frame it along with his medals and uniform jacket.
Welcome to the site Tony and sorry for your loss. You have a great looking car. I got one of those flag cases at Hobby Lobby.
you can call me Jay
