    Fabulous. And anyone who argues the 71' Cuda isn't at the top of the list of most desirable and good looking muscle cars......is in denial. Man this project is just flying compared to that Charger resurrection. Lovin' it. Gonna be good! Set the alarm system before leaving and drive safe. And no more whining about snow.

    Outstanding job.
    Very impressive how that came out.
    Definitely worth sandblasting the front frame section.
    I really like all the measurements, came out perfect.
    Going to be a nice car.
    Thanks for sharing.
    Take care, Ed.

    Thumbs up to your approach to restoring these automobiles. Your attention to the structural restoration and alignment is the basis for a proper fitment of the outer sheet metal components.

    Makes me feel that I can do my own work on my 73 Challenger. I did floor pans already.next is trunk and quarters.then door skins. I would not have tried if I had not watched you do the Charger,thank you. Between you and Carthage classic cars,I have tackled projects that I would have never attempted.I feel that if I get in over my head I’ll reach out to pros for help.

    These cars looked fantastic in High Impact Colors, do you know why it looks so damn good right now, because I believe that nose piece in between the fenders is Sassy Grass Green, if it`s me, Sassy Grass Green with Hemi billboards, it was a great look. I had my 70 road runner painted Limelight, it turned heads man, the reaction was crazy, everybody , stared, speaking of crazy, me selling it, because of divorce. Every now and then, I still bang my head off the kitchen table, hehe. Love that Cuda brother, nice job.

    Finally got around to watching this video! When it posted, I was down at MATS with my fam as well, drag racing a couple ratty Dodges, my 67 Dart and 68 Charger. Didn't get to run into you unfortunately.
    I wouldn't have been able to wait either. I would have done the same and bolt everything on. Would have to see it all on there! It's coming along nicely.

    Nice job, I like the sub-lime header panel. The car should be sub-lime or purple, it's one of the only car's that look great either color. I cringed, when I seen u take the hood off by yourself with the new gilled fender's on. In that case I would not take the chance denting the either perfect fender , $900+ Fender's come off first then the $50 hood, if u get my drift, is the way I would be with my car.

    Did you have someone in the engine compartment to do any adjustments on the newly installed Hood Hinges to line the hood with the Fenders ?
