Put the windshield wipers back in. It would be a real shame to run into something you did not see and harm this beauty.  :2cents:

A little Rain-x and you don't need wipers.

I don't understand how cars can pass safety inspection without wipers installed.

what safety inspection?   ha. like i wear a seat belt. Oh yeah, Need them too.  :icon16:   Yes, Wipers will go on,Already painted. The wiper motor is toast.  Yes,RainX.  Works good.      Eh, I don't like the red pinstripe on the wheels. Looks cheesy.  :poopoke:   Red calipers,Nah. too everywhere.  I was thinking on painting the insides of the wheels red  (?)   or maybe just the BAER logo on the calipers.

this is the spoiler.  Thought it was 25 bux. anyways,   It's flexible,Might need to be relief cut to get the edges up.  And the more you do that it will probably flex down as well. (angle)    Just a thought.   Easy to modify.    40$ and you don't have to paint it.   

Love how the bulbs reflect the light.    Not making good guys  70$!?  crazy   just not ready. Gotta work.    Last piece of glass showed up.  I'll be messy around.  :working:

I definitely like the front of your car, I am struggling with painting my brand new 72-74 grille black, however I am thinking of something like peel coat or something.
Krylon Fusion textured shimmer comes in two different shades of argent gray BUT it also comes in black. That would look b!tch!n on a grille IMO with the red inserts
7 24504 02520 7 is the krylon number.

I might do a tail panel next time that way too

Goodguys show this weekend.    Adams car care display.  Sure,You can buff it!  Ha.  Now I want the checkered floor in the shop! :money:

An amazing journey to say the least.    Drove up sat. and what a ride! WoW!  After parking  I stepped back and then it hit me: Got a little misty there. :'( One of the proudest moments of my life.     The reactions are priceless.

ThanX Wes !!   That's awful nice of you to say.   Always cool to meet a CC.c member!   You got to see my obsession!! 

took you're advice: Went to cars n coffee  and then golden yesterday. Sure do love driving it!   WoW!   I drive the coolest car on the face of the earth. Seriously,I can stop time. Ha Ha.   The number one response is  :eek2:       :ylsuper: is a close second.     "nicest cuda I've ever seen"  has been uttered.   There's nothing else like it.  One of a kind.  And I'm really loving getting to roll around in it after so long.  It's starting to sink in.  On a side note: 3500 RPM's downtown will set off car alarms. 

 Needs a new hemi  6 spd and efi six. 

Lots of moPars at golden. Met Dan from CC.c in his Cuda there.  Didn't get pix sorry.  I tend to get in a La La land with the car out.    Oh…

Since I've been test/tuning enough today was her first burnout.  :burnout:    This might sound dumb but,  I think I actually was giggling afterwards.

And my buddys van from H.S.   1st time out.    but now with a twin turbo 528 aluminum HEMI !  Uh yeah, Close to 1000 hp.  the interior is sweet,I'll get pix up. thing is crazy!!

 :wow:
I've enjoyed following this amazing build so much that it almost makes me sad that it is finished.  :sadwavey: You really nailed it!  :2thumbs:
Thanks for the ride.  :clapping:  :cheers:  :worshippy

At least I can still go back and start over from the beginning. Like a good book, you can always pick up something you missed the first or second time through.
