Mid Winter break
« on: January 31, 2009 - 11:29:29 AM »
Feeling a little down and out do to the long winter I decided to drive the Cuda to work despite the freezing weather. Also I like to see the reaction of people seeing a car like this in the mist of rush hour traffic. At least the heater works good!!!
1972 BS23 H code Cuda, B5 blue, 340 streched to 416 cu in, 727 w/ 8 3/4 rear, 7.23 in the 1/8 mile and 11.38@117mph in the 1/4 on drag radials   Under restoration! Coming soon... 440cuin R3 Indy SMALL BLOCK monster!!!!

Beautiful car!! :2thumbs: Looks like you've got some tall tires on the back there. What size are you running?? I love the color. Almost looks like the color I painted my '73 Cuda. It wasn't a Chrysler color, but a GMC Corvette Blue. I have a thing for blue. Have fun with the 'winter' driving. I'm a little north of you in VA, but supposed to be about 60 here tomorrow as well and I was thinkin' like you and will prolly take the Challenger out to get the juices flowing again!! :woo:

The rear tires are Mickey Thompson 275/60/15 Drag radials. I think they are only 26 inches tall. Just looks big because of the stance. :2thumbs:

Nice-Nice rub it in, been cold in Jersey....

That thing looks great,

Also I didn't think it was cold down your way. My ex-boss lives in Matthews, N.C. and he hold me the weather was nice and he took his Road King out for a ride the other day.

He is trying to get me to move down there. I was looking just over the border around the Rock Hill area in South Carolina.
Know of any nice houses for sale with a large garage??
