The place is called "cruisers", they are in delray beach, florida.
Going into their shop is like walking into a time machine.
I've seen cudas, super birds, old vettes, mustangs, t-birds and some old cars that I have no idea of what they are.

They made the body perfect, the windows came out to make sure there was no rust there. They take lotsa time, and won't be rushed.

That's awesome!  I'm doing something similar with my '73, painting the tail panel body color (white) but keeping the taillight buckets black.  Do you mind my asking how you got the wide '71 grille opening molding to work on yours?  Mine is painted body color (as it should be), but I'd really like to have a chrome molding around the grille.

Mike

All I know is when I bought it on ebay, I was told it would fit 70-74
And I brought it to the shop it's in now, "Cruisers" to have it put on.
It fits like a glove, not OJ's bloody glove....

It looks really great, it gives the look of a sorta circle of chrome b/c it comes real close to the bumper.

That looks great and love the molding. That remonds me of my Charger where the chrome went all of the way around the grille.

  Very nice--luv seeing fresh new purple paint.  I think I'll be stripping my cuda down this fall and winter and hope to have it repainted purple this next spring.

Awesome paint job there.

However, I'm kind of fond of Petty blue on the later cars.  However, I can understand the color change; want something diff

My original FC7 Chally will be something entirely diff.

Exactly- I would have gotten back a perfect petty blue, but aside from the bubbles, the car looked perfect b4 going in to the shop.
So it would have looked like the same car, but it would heve cost me plenty.
And like they told me at Cruisers, 6 months down the road I probably would have regretted not going with the color change.
So now I'll get back a perfect plum crazy, and it'll be new, even to me.
