History of my '68 'Cuda

Around March of 2015, I took it out of the Garage and towed it to Ed Trihey's Automotive Machine shop where he pulled the engine/trans and did open heart surgery to it finding the broken valve spring which led to the swallowed valve and cracked cylinder. That particular piston rod was bent. I initially thought of painting the car a black cherry color for which I had the car towed to get the engine compartment painted for $600.00 Ed installed a 5-speed Tremic Transmission I bought from Silver Sport for $5,000.00 complete with hydraulic clutch assembly before the engine was completed.
