Hello from 71CudaBuddha!
« on: April 07, 2012 - 12:50:06 AM »
Hello there!

I recently purchased my first MOPAR...Which I have been told stands for Massively Overpowered and Respected or Mostly Old People and Rednecks...( I'm ok with both!)

I have spent the past few days steadily looking for parts for my new unfinished project 1971 Cuda. Enjoying every minute of it so far....

I need to buy a drioveshaft and a slip yoke..for a 727 torqueflight...matching up to the 8 3/4 Suregrip...any suggestions?

thanks

Welcome to the site! :wave:  It looks like you have a really cool '71 you're finishing up! :grinyes:  As for the driveshaft & yoke there are plenty of vendors out there selling this stuff so it's really easy to find these nowadays.  Randy's Ring & Pinion would have the yoke you'd need & I'd imagine there are multiple companies producing driveshafts, which could range from carbon fiber & aluminum to factory-spec replacement steel ones. :2thumbs:

Hello! I have seen that car on eBay few weeks ago. It wasn't sold then. Is it a secret how much did you pay for such awesome car? If it's not please reveal.
