I just picked up a rolling chassis 72 Cuda. I plan for it to be a complete restore, its a decent shell, but going to need some work. Still deciding if I want to go gen3 hemi or build a stroker 400 or 440 for it.
Welcome to FEBO from the desert! Post some pictures of your 72 Cuda roller! I don't think you can go wrong with any of the three engine choices you're considering.
Something tells me you might be a Turkey hunter. My brother is probably at his cabin close to Fordyce. This is my brothers life. I feel safe on the road when my brother is in the woods. Lets see the 72 you bagged. I know that area somewhat, Fantastic area!
