I’m glad I accepted accepted to the forum.
My current project is a 70 Plymouth Cuda street machine. It was featured in August 1977 Car Craft magazine. It has mostly survived with its original gear from back then. My goal is to completely return it to its former glory.
I included some pictures. Thanks.

Welcome, is the cuda a 70? Don't believe the taillights are 70. Taillights on that car are from 72 to 74?

 

[Vortechys]

It’s a 70 body. Rear tail panel and grille were changed to 74 pieces

Before it was modified it was a 383 stick car

Wow, how cool to have a car that was in a hot rod magazine. Looks like a runner. Congrats and good luck.

Welcome and very cool ride. Yes, many vehicles got a quick change over from 70, 71 then to 72 and so on during their racing era. I vaguely even remember that article and those pictures. I know Dave Lyall and work with Dave Lyall Jr. For 30 years.

Thanks everyone. The two guys who built it originally are still around. They are good friends of mine and will be helping me with the project.

Welcome to the site....used to have a flock of E bodies starting with a 72 340 car in 74. Long story short, lost count lol. Still have the Belvedere in my avatar though. Bought it in 88.

Welcome to FEBO from the desert! What a fun Cuda to have! What needs to be done to it since you say it's a project?
