Thought I'd better update you guys on whats happening with the 'Cuda.
It's going in for a full body paint tomorrow minus the engine bay as that's pretty tidy.
It was originally going in for some fender, 1/4 and rear window touch ups when the painter and Dave came up with a bargain price to do the entire car, it's $2K more to do it all compared to a little less for 15%'s worth.
It was something I would have be silly not to take on...........
The cars as
solid as they come. Trunk & floor pans, sills, rear window area all mint and solid.
The car is stripped down and will take about 3-4 weeks for the mild body work and paint to be complete.
Other parts ready to install once back from paint:
- Rebuilt performance orientated TorqueFlite-727
- BPE Kick-down & throttle kit
- New interior door panels and pillar post moldings
- Pioneer Head-unit, Eclipse 6x9" speakers and top of the line Radar
- Alarm
- New 7lb Starter motor and heat shield
- New flat black hockey stripe decals
- 3/4" Autometer tach (will sit on the end of the console on the "lip")
- Brake Kit
- New air filter set up
- Cuda floor mats
- Tune the Demon
- Re-install Go-Wing
With the added viscous fan & electric fan (on switch) there'll be no over heating for this fish.
Should be ready to roll in about 6 weeks.
Can't wait!! Lucy was there keeping an eye on her whilst waiting for her GV module to come back (again).
Cheers,
