Reproduction Shifter Boot with separate galvanized ring: The rubber shifter boot attaches directly to tunnel hump through the opening in the rough-cut carpet, the galvanized ring goes onto rubber boot, four (4) black screws go through galvanized ring/rubber boot into the tunnel metal. Then, trim...

Also, check out this review of oil filters. I have used the Wix 51515 and the Purolator BOSS PBL30001. Both seem to be quality filters.

See some answers above and photos below. TIP for making holes in carpet: To make holes for seat belts and the seat track bolts is to use an old deep-well 5/8" socket with a 6" extension. Heat the socket opening with a propane torch (cheap Home Depot or Lowes item) until it is cherry red. Push...

Fram PH43 (Short) or PH8A (Long) or their equivalents based on clearance to manifolds or to headers. A 90° adapter can rotate the filter's orientation to allow for the Long filter to fit. Consider a WIX filter 51515. Several other quality filters exist as well.

The Sandland Cuda from Egypt. This restoration is by Mike Mancini's American Muscle Car Restorations, Inc. Only NOS or "lunch-pail" parts were used in the restoration. Phenomenal work by AMCR. D21 - 4-Speed Manual Transmission EV2 - Tor Red Paint V1X - Black Vinyl Top SRX9 - Leather Seats...

That 3D-printed design for the console lid (2 pieces) does not open. The two console holddown screws holding the console to the tunnel are reused, one screw per cupholder section along with the hinge screws. The "through the woodgrain topplate" version works for an automatic but not so well for...

...which makes the Broadcast Sheet and other original ordering paperwork plus Window Sticker that much more important to prove a car's original configuration. Two most common locations below.

There are already 3D printed console lid cupholders for sale.Uses the factory screws as well. Resto-Nerd High-Quality Restoration Parts & Accessories for Mopar Vehicles | Resto-Nerd Muscle Car Worx

Agree for the most part. The Broadcast Sheet is more like the birth certificate and the Fender Tag is like a Driver’s License. Tag has most of the info but not all. The “What” in “What is this car?” requires documentation and paperwork to legitimize it. If you do not care about legitimacy, that...

For everyone, Expect some photos from the event in this thread. The Sandland Cuda export car is freshly restored and will amaze everyone with its options. Teaser photos from its Middle East days and after its arrival in the US for restoration. Note: This is an EV2 Orange car HemiCuda.

I will be there as well, @floyd, and will attempt to locate you.

This scenario is the best possible since the documentation supports the overall car’s provenance. I do not think a repro fender tag would affect such a car’s value. Experts will spot the repro tag and take that into consideration but with that much paperwork and physical evidence it is more than...

Here are some reference photos for the M88 Deck Moulding a.k.a. Cuda tail panel stainless trim surround. This LINK has details as well. Hope this gets you going with adding this trim. Another member posted this info and a few photos. I would try to get the holes symmetrical on both sides...

Yes, most of that is true except for A/C cars ordered with optional G21 - Clear Glass. Non-A/C cars with no glass code got Clear Glass (all windows) but only on non-A/C cars. Non-A/C cars could order optional G11 - Tinted, All Windows OR G15 - Tinted Windshield only at extra cost. A/C cars...

@Challenger RTA That is not a vented cap and from what I can tell, the filler opening's neck size is smaller for 1971 (1-3/8" ?) versus 1970's 1-1/2" filler opening. It seems there is not much info documented on this topic. We likely need to do some reference material and diagrams to aid...
