Hi fellow FABO members.

Thought I'd share some pics of my car. It's my first car, bought in 1977,got my drivers license on it and have had it ever since. Time and money have kept it off the road since 1999 but it's almost completely restored at this point. Some of the highlights are RMS front and rear suspension,4-speed conversion,360 Magnum engine (500 hp), 2.5" TTI exhaust , United tool works sub frame connectors and torque boxes, complete white legendary interior with rally seat upgrade , all chrome and stainless replaced or refinished. Full rotisserie resto including painting and clear coating full undercarriage.
Hope you like it.

Very nice. What happened with the roof?

Thanks for the great compliments everyone ! When I stripped the Roof I found too much damage from a previous repair.
I found a complete roof section in Quebec and figured it would be easier to replace the whole roof than fix the original one. After painting it ,I'm glad I did!

Thanks Michael.
Yea , I wanted something different so I went with code PYC which is a Jeep color called Ember Glo I think. It was also the paint code for the PT DreamCruiser. We did play with it a little though and made it a shade darker and a little more metallic.

"The Super Cuda" was in print, an E body that ran something like 186 mph.

No worries, I do indeed like yours and WOW THATS A LOT OF WORK YOUR DOING!
 
Thanks Rumblefish360 ! Yea, most evenings and weekends for the past 3 years. Getting close to the finish now and am also fighting the urge to rush ! BTW, I got the "Supercuda name off an old T-Shirt I saw many, many years ago.
Most of the older members will remember it.

"Supercuda Jump aboard.... Drop the hammer and nail a Ford !!! "
 
That is something in the making ive not seen.................Just totally awesome.
Gonna be something most will never achieve, or dream about.............Thanks for that.

I gotta agree with everyone here. Your doing not only a insane amount of work but an insanely nice job. Dang! Hard not to look at it again and again.

What shocks are on the back?
 
Top notch build with an awesome first Mopar story‼️ Those black stripes look very nice with the Ember Glo.
Wish I still had my first A-Body to build like this.........
 
Thanks again guys for the great compliments!
Rumblefish360, the shocks are part of the RMS Streetlynx rear suspension system and are made by Viking. I read a lot about Bill O'Reilly who owns RMS Suspension Systems and talked to numerous owners who use this system including members here at FABO.
Even though I read some negative comments in a popular Mopar Magazine, every owner I spoke to had the same comments after using the system for 1000's of miles and in every extreme application with no problems. Overall comments were that the parts are very well engineered and built ,quality is fabulous and the owner, Bill O'Rielly is one of the best people you could ask for to deal with.
