J&J reproductions stamped them already. Car is currently ready to be painted.. down to metal etc. Those fenders were NOS and on the car. They had the rolled wheel lip too.. which were for the taller tires, so me thinks they changed the fenders to accomodate the taller thin race tires when they dragged it.

Thanks.

I've been there,,  Nice place!!!

Anyway, I like your plan NZ and any triple black E-bod is gonna look cool but is there any chance your going to loose the vinyl top?

I think they look better with a shiny black top next to the bright chrome on those roofs and doors.

Now if you could get gator grain   :grinyes:  :grinyes:

Nope! :grinno: HAS to be Triple Black! The 68 Charger and 71 Cuda are the only cars that can pull it off in my personal opinion. But, I do agree that it does look good without, but, it looks good with too. Either or but my preference is the vinyl top this time around. Any other colour and 100% of the time I would remove it or buy a car without a vinyl top.

FM3V6M - Nice car but the decals IMO are a little too much, stark contrast to the black.
It's like you'd say: "Come look at my decals" instead of "Come look at my Cuda" lol. Still, I wouldn't say no to it!


:cheers:
