Great shots of the grille! This will be an awesome ride when you get it done. I'm about to get my grille back from the body shop. Are those original turn signals? Did you restore them?

 :newbie:   the secret is that i finally realized I couldn't do it to the quality I wanted on my own, so I hired some one to rebuild it for me. Looks real good so far as he has done more in a month than I did in 6 months.  this is what I told him I wanted it to look like. Does any one know this car ? I don't know where I found this picture but would love to see more of it. Does any one know what wheels and tires these are ?

Hey Vryfast, looking good!

Any word on the arms?

Here is a link to that purple cuda. It was featured a while back. It has one-off brembo brakes. I agree about the wheels tho.... :nono:

Also in agreement on the wheels, but to each his own.  Please don't paint the engine compartment black like on that car either.  We're not working on Camaro's around here.
