Looks ok, but hard to judge with those wheels on the rear that dont fit right and break things up.

If you were gonna go through all that trouble,why not convert to 70-1  side marker lights?  IMO it looks bad with 72-4,they just don't look right. :poopoke:

you could think of it as taking the value of a 73/74 Cuda, then adding the value of those parts to it...your not going to lose if you need to sell, but I think it may be slightly more difficult to sell it on todays market....unless somebody doesn't care about the incorrect appearance...original is king, clones do very well, but weird combos.....????
-just my opinion... ???

Ok going to start getting back into the swing of things again,an hour or so after work each night, should start seeing some good progress! Started strippign alot of undercoat from the under side/engine bay. Lots of patch work etc. Going to make it looks nice underneath. We got a portable lift and it works fantastic!After we finish the engine bay metal work were going to rent an industrial blaster and blast it and epoxy.

I still need front fenders, anyone have a line on any? Wonder when the ETA is for the goodmark ones?   :working:

74chall,
Progress is good! Can you tell me some more about the portable lift in the pic? Manufacturer? Where you bought it?
Thanks.

still have a long way to go but i've been doing this in my drive way on my one day off in 100% humidity most of the time. Hoping to have the shell painted within a month or so.
