Yep, I have had the car since 1999, when I was 17. Nothing worth having is easy, and let me tell you Mopars cost a lot of money.

That and any good project like this is worth taking your time and doing it right and get it how YOU want it ;)

Glasswolf, I was going to mention something about it looked like you might of had a good collection, but forgot. I would kind of like to start a collection like that too. Yeah, the car in the picture but the master cylinder sticks out like a sore thumb. The progress on the body and paint work will probably be awhile before it is completed. I plan to get the suspension, front and rear, and exhaust completed this year. Hopefully, I can get the engine dialed in for the most part, but will most likely take the car to the dyno spring of 2008, then it is on to the interior and exterior work starting the spring-fall of 2008. I hope to be done for the most part by 2010, thing like this your are never completely done.

Funny thing is I've never been much of a Mopar fan, but I always liked the Cuda's for some reason... So I think you've got some really nice looking plans and look forward to seeing the progress...
And yeah it was funny how good looking the one in the pic you showed with a rusted out master cylinder... haven't they ever heard of sandblasting and paint :p

I have a decent die cast collection.
in 1/18 I have, just to name a few..
2 1966 Chargers (red and silver, 383 and hemi respectively)
1969 charger (plum crazy with blower)
1969 Coronet R/T Hemi
1969 Dodge Dart R/T 440 Magnum
1970 Dodge Charger Daytona Hemi
1969 Plymouth Barracuda 383
1969 Road Runner Hemi
1971 Road Runner 440/6 ramcharger
1969 Pontiac GTO Judge 400 tri-carb ram-air III
1962 Ferrari 250 GTO
1984 Ferrari Testarossa
1988 Lamborghini Countach LP500

my collection of 1/24 scale numbers about 50 cars at present, mostly classics, and mostly mopars, and my 1/64 scale collection dates from present back to about 1970 and numbers in the hundreds of vehicles. I have crates of them, many collectable.

I figured you'd like that 'Cuda though.

by JASON96R » Sun Jan 28, 2007 8:27 am

Yeah, I like the pro touring look I think it can look very aggressive. Plus, it seems more stable for daily driving, then having skinnies up there. I really like the 69 Road Runners very nice looking cars. Also, it is funny that the 69 Cuda you showed had a 383 stripe, mine is supposed to be a 383 Formula S.

by GlassWolf » Sun Jan 28, 2007 2:11 am

skinny tires in front = pro stock
wide in front = pro touring
69 Barracuda for you:

and a 66 Charger:

I'm building a 69 Super Bee right now in Lemon Twist yellow with the black tail band, and the A12 lift-off hood (fabbing that mod myself._ I'm still undecided about doing old school racing flames on the sides with an air brush though. It'll be similar to this:

by JASON96R » Sat Jan 27, 2007 9:19 pm

Yeah, I thought so too. There is a 65 or 66 Cuda in the background of that picture.

sexy. My dad has a 65.
