    Pixie Duster,
    Yes, the color is the factory FM3 Panther Pink color.  When we decided to go with Panther Pink that was one of our concerns to make sure it was the right Pink.  I have seen some other cars that were supposed to be Panther Pink and they did not even come close to being the right color.  We had the guy that painted the car mix up some paint and paint a piece of metal to make sure it was the right shade.  I agree the color is just awsome.  You should be able to go to a auto paint store and tell them you want Panther Pink-FM3.   I think the paint they used was Dupont Chroma Premiere.  Thank you for the compliments.  I have seen a FM3 Duster and it looks awsome in that color.  When you get your Duster painted post some pics of it.

      We had a 1971 Curious Yellow 440-6bbl Cuda that we showed at ISCA (World of Wheels) car shows.  Did you ever go to any of the ISCA World of Wheels indoor car shows?  Our Cuda was on a turntable in the display we had it in at the shows.  Hope everyone is having a great weekend so far.

    That was a few years ago alright.  I remember.  You had it for sale and you had sent me a video tape of it to my home town at the time, Tracy, Ca.  I wish that I would have bought it looking back.  It was soooo nice that it was a true trailer queen.  No offense by that remark.  I remeber iy actualy won the ISCA award, which had not been previously won by a Mopar. 

    I hope to see more pics of the new project Hemi Cuda.  Looks as nice as the Yellow and Black Cuda.  When we last talked you had mentioned that your husbands back was giving him lots of trouble.  Hope it has gotten better.  Not easy restoring cars when the back flairs up.

    Best,

    Greg,
    Thanks for the nice compliments on the Curious Yellow Cuda.  Yes, it was a true trailer queen.  We sold it to a collector.  Yes, it won the ISCA Championship which was the first time a Mopar has ever won.  That was why we built the car in the first place.  It was truly a remarkable car.  You mentioned about my husbands back well it is not any better but restoring these cars gives him something to do.  The Pink Hemi Cuda is almost done.  All we lack is putting on the exhaust and a couple of trim pieces.  The engine has been fired up and sounds fantastic.  We will probably drive it a little tomorrow.  I will get some better pictures of it once we bring it outside.  Thanks everyone for all of the great compliments on our Cuda's.
