Finally getting the k member back in this next weekend hopefully.

From the bottom....the only way to do it!

Clean.

It's been a pretty big challenge. I started out with a half disassembled car that needed an entire back end and the bolts all came in Folgers coffee cans.lol

Looks good from where I'm sitting. Heck, most people would've given up long ago with a basket case like that. Kudos!

 

[hsb shadow]

This is definitely my last basket case I will ever do. I did this one mainly because it was fully documented and had its original complete drivetrain as well as its original master cylinder booster carburetor, etc. It's hard to find an unmolested car anymore

Well amazingly I got in touch with the second owner of the car today. He bought it off his wife's uncle who was the original owner. The car sat out in the yard for over 25 years slowly rusting away. He said it took 10 years for him to get the car off the wife's uncle and when they called him he found out it was already half disassembled by the uncles son.

That's a rare situation, you got really lucky.

Everything is looking great; thanks for the effort in saving the Cuda

Drivetrain went in with the help of a very good friend. Done in hour and a half amazingly . His name is Mopar Craig. He builds high performance engines including hemis 440s and 340s and ships them all over the country. I consider myself to be very lucky to have the friends that I do

Nothing like inserting it in from the bottom. (The engine I mean.)
