I do prefer the black bubble over the silver argent. I wish the factory would have left the option open for buyers to get the bubble painted the same as the rest of the car. I love the factory paint bubbles on the early production cars.

Good point,  I also loved the body colored Bubbles. :2thumbs:

Looks like she's already on Ebay. Sorry you have to sell her so quick.   Are you going to focus on the challenger project next?

Yeah it went on ebay last night :walkaway: Hopefully the weather will break and I will be able to drive it more this weekend. I will probably start on the 70 Challenger next. I am going to take my time on it because I am definately keeping that car.

I prayed really hard to the car gods and had my family do the same and my prayers were answered. The weather broke today and I was able to drive the cuda for almost 4 hours this afternoon!!  :burnout:It was such a blast. I took my fiance and my dad with me and had a great time. Put a little over a hundred miles on it and the only real issue I have is when I turn on the headlights the dash lights for the blinkers turn on. I am hunting down grounds right now.
