Cuda at SEMA

[Steve1968LS2]

Holy crap! They put my bucket on the cover too. Now I really can't wait to get this issue. Cuda looks awsome Bob.



Alcino

Least we could do for the one of the fastest cars we have ever tested..



Congrats man.. we even used one of those pics I snapped or your car (on the ridge)..

Congrats to Bob and Mark as well.. nice cars!

Steve,
Can you post decent "outtake" photos of all three cars ('cuda, MII, and Nova). Y'know...Like you did in the thread about Howell's car. That would make a nice Pro-Touring.com tradition. It would give lurkers more reason to come out of hiding while providing your most loyal readers with an exclusive perk.

Not a bad idea at all.. i will go shrink a couple down..

I'm always thinking.

I'm always thinking.

Is that a good thing or a bad thing?? lol

I made a thread on it for ya.. I think we have a good mix of cars this month. Chevy, Ford, Mopar .. East, West, South .. Orange, black, blue.. lol

[Doug Cooper]

I'm hangin out with Alan for a few days and the Cuda is running.

IT SOUNDS BADAS*!!!!!!!!!!

It's going back together as I type this getting all the Maxton required safety and go fast goodies.

Bob I might ride in it before you!LOL [see you tomorrow]

I've been around this car quite a bit and I'm still spoting more trick engineered pieces, and there are more being added.

Little items like the billet tail pipe hangers, Very Trick. When any of you get to see the car take along hard look!!!!!!!

Look for the water pump and radiator hoses? no where in site?

The Popular Hotrodding issue just arrived at the shop and the entire staff is checking it out.
It's quite a spread on the Cuda, lots of concept drawings, build photos, and detail shots.

"The Baddest Muscle Car Ever!"

Alan gets this thing ready just when I have a colonoscopy (my first) lined up. Might be a little more info than you wanted.. Figured the Cuda might scare the Sh*t out of me so I better be clean..yowzaa..a buddy of mine went to Alan's to get my Woodie and bring it to World of Wheels..he holds a few Bonneville Records, some at Maxton, and used to race with Jim Downing for the Factory Mazda Team..He looked at the Cuda again and said I was stupider than he gave me credit for being if I ran that Cuda at Maxton..I told him to come witness the D/A attack..I's born dumb and had a relapse..

Doug id love to take a long look at the cuda. WHEN i see it. which will probably be sometime in the next 3 months im hoping. but i should have seen it yesterday

[CHILI442]

Just got the mag yesterday. Coverage is awesome. I've been following the build here but I'm still in awe. I don't quite understand the Eagle rods, but the car is no doubt the Baddest Musclecar Ever!!!! Congrats

I take it this beast will be at Goodguys Columbus?

[JoshStratton]

Ok. I give up. There are WAY too many posts in this thread. This has to be a record.

Can anyone tell me what those seats are out of?

[barraza]

I finally read this whole thing and realized you are going to dyno 30 min from my house. I'd love to be a fly on the wall, have you rescheduled?

Other thing I learned from 20 plus pages is that the Cheetah and Gold Club are closed, is that for real? Its been a while since I was in Atlanta.

Oh man Bob, does that mean you are full of $#!t or is that just to keep the flies away. Better you than me. That just sounds nasty. Must be all that good eatin'.

Wish I could see you run at Maxton, please have someone take video that you can post. And when you do run, be safe !

The Baddest Muscle Car Ever! - they got that one right.

now you see what the "good egg" does to you

I recently, um, heard....you know, from a friend.....that the Cheetah didn't close, only the Gold Club.

If I had eaten at the whopper doodle with you guys, I wouldn't be needing the colonoscopy..I'd been cleaned out in Scottsdale.

Gold Club and The Cheetah were a little too high Class and Snooty for me..in the day I liked the Pink Pony, Tattle Tale, Mardi Gras, etc. Lot less attitude..You can get $250.00 out of me.. but it takes more than a table dance..The Real liked The Clairmont Lounge..where old strippers go to die..

I'm not in denial..I am absolutely full of it..but the good thing is, it don't stink..(if you're a fly that is)..We probably will mount a camera in the car..Hot Rod TV is going to cover Maxton too. We plan on being safe..Thanks for the concern and encouragement. Old Farts like me get colon cancer..They can catch pre cancer Pollups and prevent cancer. Alan needs me until he can transition onto Doug's tit.

Don't know which day..probably next Thursday or Friday..We'll keep you guys posted.

Since they screwed me around on my Camaro and The Cuda, I don't want to give them free press. It's a high end seat, not out of a production car. We had Paul Atkins modify them. I don't like my seats to stick up any higher than the top of the door panel. Not too big on head rests either unless the car originally had them and they fit the look I'm after. The head guy of the company sales dept. didn't even recognize them as being his seats. Paul is tops in his trade if you ask me.

[1970cuda]

i know that it has probably been covered but what type of seats are those?
