I'm in the Wetaskiwin area.

Welcome from a fellow Albertan. Would definitely like to see some pics of your car! I've got a 73 Cuda that's being restored right now too. Here's what it looked like before heading to the body shop.

Hotchkis says to get them from Summit and Summit says they're not available. I'd say you're probably better off looking elsewhere for TB's. I'm in the same boat and just contacted PST for a shipping quote to Canada. As long as they don't use UPS, I'll most likely order a set from them.

Go big or go home! :) Seriously though, I tend to agree with some of the previous posters. A small block stroker with 475hp and 500ft/lbs of torque is pretty achievable and nothing to sneeze at.

IMO, a tunnel rammed Hemi would suit the Challenger much more than it would the Satellite.

If a company tells me the only way they'll ship to Canada is by UPS, I usually don't complete the order. I have no problem paying my duties/taxes but UPS's brokerage fees are WAY out of control. This is not something new from them, they have been doing this for years.

Talk to your local autobody shop or even an antique dealer, if you have one. They may know someone. My body shop told me about a guy local to me who restores stainless trim as a retirement gig and he's very good at it. There's no way I would have ever found out about this guy as he does...

I honestly think this touch screen would work. BOSS Audio The floating head unit looks like it will stick out far enough to clear the gauges and has quite a bit of up/down movement as well as swivel movement. It might not be the top of the line stereo but does get pretty decent reviews.

Here's a quick update on my dash from Dash Pad Pros. I know there are lots of people who had issues with them but I have to give credit where credit is due. I just finished reassembling my dash and everything fit together perfectly. I did have to do some trimming to get some of the pieces to fit...

Definitely not building this car as an investment, at least not an investment for me. I'll have well over what it's sale price would be by the time I'm finished. I intend on driving and enjoying this thing for (hopefully) the next 20 years.

I am keeping a record of everything. This car will be thoroughly documented with pictures and receipts of absolutely everything that has been done to it. To me, documentation is an important part of any build. It's proof of what's underneath all that shiny paint. This car looked great when I...

Thought I should introduce myself. I'm from Alberta, Canada and I've got a 1973 Cuda that is being restored right now. Well, it will be more of a restomod restoration. I picked up the car a little over a year ago. It does look pretty good in the picture but trust me, it had its share of...

I used Dash Pad Pros and could't be happier. Others have reported having problems with them though. I had the new dashpad in my possession in under 8 weeks and I live in Canada. I also received my core charge back very quickly after they got my frame. Quality of the dashpad is very good and the...
