another noobie
« on: January 31, 2005 - 11:01:18 AM »
 :-* what's up guys?  another noobie here.  own a 74 360 4spd Cuda.  numbers matching original (restored by me) except for the hockey stripe-couldn't resist.  color is KT5 sienna metallic.  interior is black.

finished the restoration about two weeks before moving to Japan in July of 2003, and have been waiting for the opportunity to get back to the states and drive her.  being around this place makes me feel right at home though-thanks!

I like the color, and love the stripe - nice job.
That's the one thing I love most about the Plymouths was the hockey stripes and billboard graphics.

wow, that was a fast reply.  thanks!  the original idea was to repaint the car, but once i saw the color, i just had to keep it.  plus the car was sooooo original.  i just HAD to have the hockey stick tho' so i had one made with "360" in it even though there was never one produced from the factory that way.

Sweet looking ride budoka. Whoever designed the hockey stripe nailed it as it looks good on any 70-74 Plymouth Ebod. And of course welcome :thumbs:

Hi Budoka,
  Your Cuda is a very nice looking ride!! That color looks real sharp!! One question for you...
On that white cabinet on the other side of the car is what looks like a amateur radio QSL
card. Could it be you're a ham radio guy too??  I've been in that hobby since 1974! Good luck
with the car and your stay overseas.   Jeff
