    uk newbie just joined the mopar family
    « on: November 25, 2008 - 03:50:45 PM »
    hi guys,my name is Neil from the UK.

                          I just got myself a 72 numbers matching 340 cuda in sublime green.

                        My previous car was a 66 mustang 289 v8,which i rebuilt over 2 yrs, i loved that car !

                      But the only car i would swap it for came along................the cuda.

                                                  cheers. cudaneil.

    hi Dutch,
                 Well i bought the car from IRELAND  uk.    I swapped my mustang and a Ducati for it !

               Its a numbers matching 340, and it was rebuilt about 2 yrs ago in ohio usa i am told.    Its pretty standard except for the addition of a go-wing and AAR strobe stripe.

               Rebuilt motor and trans,and it has a column shifter,which i am told was a rare option.
            
                I have some of those little eyebrow spoilers for the front end,which i havent fitted yet.  And i have just fitted a chrome racing mirror to the passenger door. (expensive!)


                                                                         cheers, cudaneil. :bigsmile:

    Hi - I just joined here too - whereabouts are you ?

    The speed freak officianados are anti column shift but personally I think it's a great option.

    I don't like go-wings and spoilers etc. though.

    Maybe see ya sometime.
