Hey everybody!
Well my story is I bought this car about 9 years ago assembled except the motor and trans were out. I tore it down and bought new floors, quarters, etc. It sat in body shop jail while I finished college. Basically nothing was done do it in that time. I dragged it home and it's sat in pieces in the back corner of the shed for about 5 years until today. We brought into the shop and starting looking over it again. There's a ton of body work to do, but here's the general idea I have for it.
RMS suspension front and rear and discs all around
Engine: I have the original 383 which I could build, but could go new Hemi, or maybe small block 340 or stroker
Keisler 5spd
Modern buckets seats, maybe new Challenger?
In my head this car has always been yellow with white and black interior, but I'm considering some darker colors from late model cars. I kinda like the dark gray of my G8.
Anyway, I obviously have a lot of decisions to make yet, but I'm glad to finally be making some progress.
Oh, if you're wondering about the front frame rails they were pretty trashy, but I also have a stripped '73 parts car that somehow has great rails on it that I plan on swapping in.
1970 Plymouth 'cuda
Nothing special yet
Originally 383 4 speed
Current state: totally apart, ready for ground up resto/modification
