First show with the new engine and engine bay finally the right color.

Went out for a 50 mile test drive to the gym yesterday before driving to the show in the morning. All went well. Finally have this thing ready to do a lot of miles before we get snow again! Uploading the photo distorts the color a bit. It's more obnoxious than it shows.

Howdy Nice car we have a 2015 Scat the same color. It has a Black billboard on it. Enjoy the smiles with the miles.

I keep hoping I run into one of the new ones in the same color so I can take pictures with it. And one in whatever they call the new version of Hemi Orange. I see one in town fairly often and it's usually parked out in a parking lot corner by itself so one of these days I'll get it!

Wound up parking next to this excellent 340 'Cuda, and next car down the line was a 73 Duster Twister with a 383 in it. Couple other 72-73 Challengers also, and a 68 'Cuda convertible that wasn't in the show but was in the parking lot. Of course, I got dumped on on the way home. Engine did great, definitely no cooling problem while on the road, it never went over 175 even with a climb over a 4k foot pass to get there and back. I'm not sure if I want to swap the 440 Magnum badge for a 512 one now or not. Can't wait for the T/A hood to get here so I can paint it and get it on too.

Leave it parked out in the sun and it will soften the color down. yellow fades to cream over time.

I don't want it to be cream, I chose this to be as obnoxious as possible! The photo with the flag shows the closest to real color.

Leave it stealth. Make them guess it's what I do. Mine says 340+6 but I make them guess what that means. Big block buddies of mine hate me because of it.

Howdy Here is a picture of our car that kinda let's me be on this forum, plus I have lots of parts for a Cuda'

Ready for the last show I'll do for the year. Wash and dry in the morning then a half hour drive to the show. Finished the temp fix on the wheel bearing problem and went for a test dirve today and all seems well.

If I didn't love the TA hood so much, I'd keep this flat hood on it. No one would ever expect a big 512 under there.

Awesome T/A was there, and a 65 Barracuda that gives me inspiration to finish mine.

Carrman from here on the forum was there today too, with a great Newport, but we didn't manage to run into each other.
