Canadian Cuda said

Hey John just got finished reading your build. Its awesome and great job man, very impressed. I started a build on a 67 notchback Cuda, 2008 Ram 5.7, 10 years ago and also using a HDK and agree totally as he is great to deal with and a nicer guy you will never meet. Your build is giving me some incentive to get back to it. Life has got in the way as is the way with most people, health issues, a 66 Barracuda father son build build for my one son who got relocated to Alberta 6 years ago, that needed to be finished it for his wedding 98% done and a 55 Chevy truck build I was doing as well. All while my Cuda sat in waiting growing roots to the garage floor. Thank you for your detail of your build thread.

Super thanks for the feedback CaCu! Notes like that keep me energized. I fully realize most on this forum are pretty savvy but you just never know when some aspiring new young gun may be reading and pick up a pointer or two. If all of us old codgers don’t share our knowledge how will the young ones learn? My Father and I talk on the phone every Sunday morning, and today oddly enough we were reminiscing about me hanging around the race shop as a young skinny kid who was always stealing beer! The deal was, I washed parts and fetched tools and beer. I was the shop elf. I would get punished if I handed one of the guys a unopened beer, think greasy hands old days! So I was allowed a sip of the beer as payment to open the beer for them and a delivery fee! I reckon the alcohol killed all the germs because we all lived! Heck I even drank water out of the garden hose!
