The "CudaGuy Project"

[RUSTY Cuda]

Cool, can't wait to se the vid. There's no rush on the other stuff, but I would think it would be good to get it up (he he ) before carslile, this way we can have a little time to conspire about getting you back in the black! Rich.

I know I have made a donation for the car, and helped find the car, but it is nothing compared to the efforts you have did to get this out on time.

I don't feel I have contributed enough. Sorry I cant make it to the show, but my money after the show will find it's way to your wallet. This was a very big project you took on my friend, and the speed required to do it was on a level only a person like you could tackle.  All eyes will be on your work and craftsmanship as well.

I will help make it right for you in the very near future.

Excellent!!!!!!! I have been waiting for my cuda update fix  Hey Fishn, I dont know if you got hood callouts yet but on my old 73 'Cuda it had 'Cuda on the hood the same as on the tailpanel. I would have offered them because I still have the hood but one of them is dinged pretty bad. That way if Don changes engines or whathaveyou he can choose, if he wants to, to keep his engine size a secret.  Super work, I think I am excited as Don will be when he gets the car. This project is all heart and yours is the biggest in the bunch as far as I am concerned

Looking great as usual Tony, was there any clearance issues with the higher air filter element, the pic looks like the same one is on the air cleaner as when we were there last weekend.  I do think your going to pull this c-c.c overhaulin project off buddy.

I found a lower base in the warehouse. Imagine that! 25 yrs of collecting mopar parts finally has a purpose.

That looks great Tony!!!  Things are really moving now! (Don in a short while.... )

Getting dirty for a  good cause is always a good way to say "Thank you for your service to our country."  I wish I could do more!  Maybe I will!  Who knows what may open up?

One thing about it, as good as the pics look online, they still don't do the car justice.  It is quite a stunning car in person.  I am glad you can use a willing non expert for slave labor, and will do it again if I can.

That exhaust looks great.   

All I can say is WOW!!!
