I think it is like one of the Phantasm cars from what I remember. I'll have to get a little chrome ball with a spere sticking out of it to hang from the rearview mirror. hehehe  I need to crank down the torsion bars. I put the bigger bars in and it sits a little higher even with the Hemi in it. Here it is last year with my brother's 70 when it was still Winchester Grey.

I know its not a voting contest but my vote is no billboards. It doesn't need them it is awsome looking with out. We have a guy that goes on our last cruise at the end of the year with us and his cuda is black with no stripes. He says if it's fast it doesn't need stripes. LOL

I'm having some trouble with the shaker base plate being too high with the MP intake. It sits about 3" higher than normal.

I'll get some tomorrow of the engine compartment. I'm just putting all the wiring together now. That's not the carb that will be on the car. I was using it to fit the shaker base that I need to modify.

Just ordered a bunch from Year One to finish the Cuda up and get her on the road. Here's some more pictures of the engine compartment. Hard to photograph black though.
