Hi Folks. Mike Ricketts, from Metro-Detroit. Have a 70 `cuda vert, that my parents bought in 72. Doing a resto-mod on it. I hope everybody had a great Christmas, and will have a happy and healthy 2014.


Mike.

Welcome to the site. Can't wait to see your pics during your build.

Thanks. Don't have a lot of pics, yet. Getting all the big pieces together for the initial mock-up. Don't know why, but I haven't been motivated to do this car[been painted 7 years].....but, I'm finally getting around to the build. I like more complex/thought-out stuff, so I'm not doing the easiest combo. This is the body....

This is the engine, but have changed the appearance...

Welcome to the site. Looking good so far. You should start a resto thread so we can see it coming together for you.

Yes you will and I hope to see you out and about. Big Mopar swap meet at the Gibralter in Mt Clemens at the end of January, you should go if you're still needing parts. Lots of new stuff and I'm not sure if the sales tax thing has kicked in yet for swap purchases.

I'm sure I'll be gawking at the show. Most of the stuff I need now, needs to be mail ordered and fabbed. I haven't been to many local shows over the last few years....been busy with the other cars and medical stuff.
