There are enough original Hemi ‘Cudas (probably even more that were actually built). I find no fault in a period correct Day 2 or 3 build with mostly vintage correct speed parts.
Exactly. Day 2? Hell, I'd go all the way to day 2,000. Full tubs, tunnel ram, the whole 9. And I'd drive the piss out of it with the biggest grin on my face while all the purists ***** and moan.
