ALL 1971 Cuda's that left the factory painted EV2 were suppose to have a colour keyed grill and lower insert.

Because of a supply issue during the 1971 model year some EV2 Cudas, as well as other colours, did get the agrent grill.

My preference is colour keyed, but I would have to say yours looks nice with the argent grill as well :thumbsup:
How about 71Gran Coupes in EV2?

ALL 1970-1971 "BP" Gran Coupes had argent grills reguardless of the body colour. :2cents:

 Go Dave! :roflsmiley: too funny!

Mine did kind of the same thing. When he still had the training wheels on he would get his bike parallel to the curb and have the training wheel ride up the gutter a bit to lift the rear wheel. Once he had it in the right spot he would pedal like crazy shooting a big rooster-tail of water and spray up behind him. :woohoo: Funny thing was instead of a "burnout" he would call them a "fire-up." :rofl: Kids are are great!

Yea I would be lost with out him.

When he was about 3 he was playin in the mud at grandpa's, can't keep him out of the mud to this day. Any way he was going through the mud on hands and feet, grandpa asked him why he was down on his hand, his answer "I am in 4-wheel drive" gotta love it.

Awesome build.
Just read through from the beginning.

I have only one daughter but...
Years ago I turned and "merged" quickly into a busy highway. Dakota R/T so she was in front seat. She was around 7 at the time. When up to speed I look over at her. She had on a big smile and just said "More".
Doesn't wrench on them but is involved with the cleaning and the attended shows.

Great to see your son involved.

Removing the warning labels one at a time.
Nature will take care of the rest.
