The end of a journey
« on: August 09, 2016 - 02:36:58 AM »
Just short of 2 years, the Restoration of my 1970 Cuda 340 4Speed is finally done!
Couldn't have done it without the help of Alan Gallant! Not just a very knowledgeable mopar restoration guy but a great friend I got to make on this journey!

Enjoy the video

I can't believe how spectacular Tim's first restoration has turned out. Pictures and video do not do this car justice.  :picture:  I'm honored to have help him out and guided him in the right direction.
More importantly, a true friendship has emerged from the process and I know we'll have many more cars to work on in the future....he OWES me.... :smilielol: 

I taught him everything he knows.....but not everything I know.... :nono:

Enjoy....

 :wow:
Nice job Tim!
 :2thumbs:

Two years is a pretty good pace. I think most of us take a tad longer. Except Al of course. Doesn't he toss these together in a couple weeks? Must have tried his patience! lol  :bigsmile:

Car to be proud of for sure! :cheers:
