hello, new to site, glad i found you guys.....been into cars since i was 13...recently picked up a 68 fastback cuda, collecting parts for my super stock hemi clone street car/track cuda....i had a 68 dart years ago i sold when the boys were born, a great start to a clone hemi dart...regretted that ever since....I currently have and love my 68 charger but its a big boat, always was a drag race guy at heart and wanted another A body....found this 52k mile so cal zero rott cuda sitting for 30 years....I've collected over the last 15 years planning another hemi car.. I just need a block and pistons and rods..I have a magnesium x ram and crank and rockers and heads and covers and ignition etc and a dana, but this car has a fresh 8.75 posi in it so i'll run that for a bit..wheels are coming and disc conversion to the big bolt pattern is coming too as the back already is big bolt pattern...should be fun...hood and scoop is ordered too...who should i buy all the other super stock repro parts from? 3 delete plates,motor mounts,a100 seat brackets etc??

Post those questions in a post in the Hemi Super Stock forum here. SUPER STOCK HEMI Barracuda and Dart forum

Unlimited is close and think that where @ns1rm21 bought his fiberglass for his SS Hemi Barracuda clone

You can just make the delete plates. Not too hard if you are halfway crafty. Easier than Dart pieces.

motor mount kits from SS in Arizona

headers from TTI

They sell repro console covers. Top plate is same as GTO his/her shifter. Mechanisms pop up on eBay.

Welcome to FABO, looks like a really clean car to start with.
Maybe start a build thread on here so we can see the progress.........
 
You just gotta do a build thread. When I started mine I had no idea the enthusiasm, ideas and just plain motivation the build thread gave me. These guys would pick me up throw me down and generally show me no mercy when I hit the inevitable frustration blocking points you incur in this hobby. The support from the peanut gallery was invaluable. And the knowledge they share will save you hours of labor, cost and frustration.
