I'm going to call my car done. It has been for at least a week but I wanted to be able to take nice pictures before posting it.

[Big Messer]

Very nice!. In fact so nice that I wouldn't enter in a race...

[meechum68]

But it would be such a soft comfy ride! And very unlikely to attract alot of police attention!  Very nice!!

Don't forget, this was 1975, so there were a few more of these running around than there are now, and people weren't so "collector" oriented as now. I had a friend that ran a 67 Cuda at the track, street stock except for minor upgrades. There were lots out there similar.

Yeah, I was going for the super comfortable ride strategy.

I will be back on the bench this week son may be too band season got us behind on our builds

Got everything primered and base colors on. Some small detailed parts and the interior are dull coated and ready for what ever color I decide on. Started some light weathering on the chassis. Body has a silver base coat, just can't decided what color.
