I miss read your post the first time.....sorry
Car orig. came with the slant 6 and 904 auto on the column. It
also had a bench seat. When I got it the engine and tranny
were gone and someone had put a set of buckets in it.
Car was white with the Met. Red interior.

Re: My 360 build for the 67 'Cuda
man...this is really making me want to get my 68 done. Looks awesome...and, i will be following this project till its completion :)
I have a 68 convertible....needs floors and quarters...could use fenders too, but, they're fixable.
I have a brand new rebuilt 360 with the later model "swirl port" heads on it, 10.5:1 pistons, bored .30 over, 340-6pack cam...sitting in the corner of the garage. Mine is going to be painted red and dressed up like a 340 to mislead people :p
Also have a 4 speed sitting behind the car, and a Dana 60 with a 3:54 posi in it. I'm also coverting it to the manual disc brakes in the front and all...
She'll be Gold with black guts, black formula S stripe (between the wheelwells on a 68), and a black top...sitting atop gold 15" steelies (7s up front, 8s in back) with the plymouth dog dishes...should be purty.
Now...get yours done so I can really get my butt in gear :)

What do you think?
I think its even more difficult to make a car come out right when painted black, it looks great!
Re: My 360 build for the 67 'Cuda
Thanks guys.
Rich will do the first buff on Tuesday.
I am really impressed at how slick this thing is.
These guys know what they are doing.
Dave did the rust repair and hung the quarters.
Richard (we call him "Magic Fingers") prepared the body for paint.
And Rich the owner of The Rod Shop shot the paint.
These 3 guys are on my good guy list.
Re: My 360 build for the 67 'Cuda
looks gorgeous...
now, once theres some sunlight up there in IN...we need some outside pics :p
But, keep posting them...your only getting my butt more in gear...lol
Also, I've never seen anyone start painting from the bottom up...must be his secret.
Re: My 360 build for the 67 'Cuda
Got the 'Cuda home today. I will have it until Brad at the speed shop is
ready to install the engine and tranny. In the meantime I will
be installing some items including the dash and heater box.

Re: My 360 build for the 67 'Cuda
is that a tach I see in the center of that cluster? You lucky #$%^&......lol
I've been looking for one for awhile now, but, can't find one under $300 thats even presentable.
Did finally find a 150mph speedo though. :p
But...looking good...that red interior in that black ought to look pretty nice.

The tach was kinda pricey. Got it from The Paddock for $239.95
It's a re-pop
