m3m Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 (edited) Hey guys, have not posted in awhile, been busy building, built a lot of new things, just thought i would show this. I took an old built 71 cuda and rebuilt it. I scratch built the chassis, tubbs, roll cage, added a 340, n2o system, mopar paint , etc. I used a Dencon Resin conversion kit to change it from a 71 to a 70. Having a 70(1:1) cuda it was nice to have these parts to change it, and they fit perfect. Edited August 30, 2009 by Jeryd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caine440 Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Hey Jeryd! Glad you decided to post this. It looks great! Was this Johan kit 1971 kit? And I love the paint work. Stripes like that scare me but would love to learn how to do them half as good as yours. Thanks for the help on the grill paint! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m3m Posted August 30, 2009 Author Share Posted August 30, 2009 (edited) Thanks fellas! I appreciate it! Here are some more pics of the engine, chassis, interior etc. This car has a lot of stuff that was my first time i had tried to build. I built the chassis, from the front main bar back tubbs frame etc , fuel cell, battery, trunk lid, suspension, engine stuff, opened up the wheel wells on the body to fit the rear tires better. Etc. I learned alot, and will do more in the future. I thought i had a pic of the finished chassis-int. but i guess not. I used a small block from the aar kit, something different. Thanks for looking.
