Welcome budoka!
Nice looking Cuda!

What is the color number for that shade of red?  Is that the original color?

Beautiful car.
I'm new too and this is the best site I've seen.
It must be hard to have such a beautiful ride here waiting for you, and you being so far away.
You must have a real "yen" to drive it.

Burpin, I don't think my car can run with yours, but for that I'm going to  :spank: my brothers 'Cuda.
It won't prove any points, but it will make me feel better.

WELCOME - and that is one sweet looking Cuda friend. The hockey stripe is why the 70 model is my favorite model year, but that decal looks good on any Cuda and a few other Mopars as well. Where is home here in the states? And if your back during the month of July you ought to drive that baby to the Carlsile show. Again, WELCOME MOPAR BUD .  :patriot:  :thumbs:

How 'bout some more pics?  Front?  Engine?  Interior?  Trunk?

Looking sweet.  Magnum 500s really set it off well.

now THAT'S what i call a welcome!  if i miss replying to anyone who asked a question that hasn't been answered by someone else, remind me!  i'm only firing on about 2 cylinders anyway, but...

Mt.St.BigBlock, that's technically my Pops' garage, but at the time i was the only one working in it (he likes to say i invaded and took over, but he loved every minute of it-reminded him of some of his exploits).  i don't think he ever did any Hamm radio, but he was a radio operator in the  Vietnam war, stationed in Germany, so who knows?  i will ask though.

4c, thanks for the hand while i was out man.  :thumbs:

72Chall77Doba,  it IS hard.  was a hard decision to leave her, but kinda traded one HER for another HER if you know what i mean.  at least i didn't do something stupid like sell her though!  nice pun too!

rtgambit, i have quite a few pics of the resto.  i tried to document every step so i can put together a website for her, btu just haven't had time to get it going yet.

Burpin Chunks, i'm a graphics/web designer/ translation helper at a company here in Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan called Allied Telesis.  we do R&D for the parent company Allied Telesis.  also drink lots of Sake and eat yummy Sushi and foods with names too long to be worth saying.

whitesatinmopar, i'm a Ky boy (or is that "ah'm ah kin tucky bo'ey").  what kind of accent do you get when you mix hillbilly and Japanese? scary thought.

ragtopchally, the Mag500s are actually the original set of wheels that came on the car.  it's the little things like that, that make me lov ethis car even more.

again wow, thanks guys! talk about makin a guy feel welcome!  i also own a 72 Roadrunner with the GTX option package (the only way a GTX existed in 72), and a base model 68 383 Roadrunner.  not sure if i have any pics of those with me, but if so i'll put them up soon.  meanwhile here's another shot or two of my Cuda.

geez those pics are huge.  sorry about suckin up the bandwidth, i'll be more careful in the future.  also excuse the quality if you will, cheap digital camera, dark garage.

like the BB hole in the front windshield?  i just couldn't bring myself to replace the original front glass for that BB hole and resultant fogging.  when the window cracks or the fogging gets too bad, i'll change it.

WOW - fantastic job again.
Love the pics - I figure the last pic was the way you got her.
Lot of work but good job again.  :thumbs:
