      72 Cuda project

      Ok I am bored and figured I would post my project up since I am fixin to get goin on it here in a month or so. I got to finish rebuilding the motor in my Grand National first and sell my one trucks, my wife said I have to many toys so something had to go. Cut me some slack on my shop it's in bad shape to many cars not enough space never any time to. I have started on the taking it apart plans are a 6.1 hemi, 5 or 6 speed full magnum force suspension and so other little things I will show as I go. I had this car since I was in high school it was originally 340 4speed. Let know what you think hit me with some ideas. I will get some better pics up to my car is in a corner so it was hard to get some good pics.

      Here's links to a couple threads for you. In one of them someone states the xv stuff isn't very nice, I think he meant to say is very nice, but expensive.

      I love the 'Cudas, and look forward to seeing this one progress. What kind of other projects do you have, and what is the truck you'll be selling?

      This is why there are pics up of my other vehicles and If you read you will see they are my projects as well. The two on the bottom were my projects till I decided to sell them, which he asked about!

      I almost put rant mode on there after reading that. I thought you were directing that at me.

      I say, thank you for posting the other pics. I find nothing wrong with it. This is your thread afterall.

      I like the fact most of those are mopars! If you ever do some work on those as well as the '72 Cuda, post those up too! I'm sure I'm not the only one who would like to see those

      take it easy there. I meant for him to post them on the board not necessarily in the section. And these cars are projects that he did

      Why are the rest of your cars in here? This is a place for projects.

      And for the record, NOTHING is wrong with Magnumforce suspension. I have front uppers with spindles and ball joints under the Demon. They work just fine.
