Ah, but wheres the third page!? You related to Åge Dyrhaug? His black 1971 Cuda (Moldestuket)is not so bad either :cooldancing:
What forum was that if you dont mind me asking? Checked out Moldestuket.com but couldn't find your car there..


I fixed the link so now its there.
He is my father, he had a gray 71 Cuda a few year's ago. It was In Power Magazine this spring.

Finished with the rear valance and adjusted the doors,fenders,trunk lid and hood so they all have nice 0.5cm gaps.
And finally the car is ready to go to the paint shop :woohoo:

Thanks :) I will try to take some pictures tomorrow when I go to the paint shop.
We actually did the fitment two years ago,the gaps between the repro fenders and original doors was terrible,so there was cutting and welding involved In the process.
So now we only had to adjust everything again before delivery.

That is exactly where I am at and am trying to figure out how best to make the fenders fit the doors.

The rallye's are to small for the brakes,so have a set of Rushforth Rated-X wheels in 9x19" and 12x20" :)
