Idaho Spud
« on: April 21, 2016 - 12:12:52 AM »
Hello everyone, thought I would introduce myself since I'm new to the board. My name is Robert and I live in North Idaho. I just purchased a '73 'Cuda that is all original but needs to be restored. It is JA5 Dark Silver Poly with white interior, still has the original paint and interior. This is my dream muscle car however it's not my first choice, but I'm not a millionaire so I can't afford a Plymouth Superbird/ Dodge Daytona. Im ecstatic to finally be the proud owner of a 'Cuda! Can't wait to get started on it!  :money:

Thanks everyone I appreciate the kind words. I'll get some pics posted soon. The DS rear floor pan needs to be replaced due to the DS door window being busted out. I've been looking at Year One, AMD, Goodmark, and Classic Industries for a replacement. Is one company better than another as for quality and fitment? The lower rear qtrs came with patch panels from Year One and they seem to be good quality.
