I don't know what it is but with the cuda and charger together you can see some sort of family lines. Maybe it's just me.
 
Oh yea, it's longer, much taller, not sure width seems close, I was lookin for a way to lower my (manuel) seat so I don't have 3" of visor in my field of vision, guess that will be good when driving into the sun :shifty:
If I ever get em both out somewhere I have some room to get better pics I can do a better comparison.
Heading out to LI tomorrow, so we will see how comfy it is after 2hrs on the road!
German tranny, no friggen dipstick. It has traction control, heat & a/c for the rear on the back of the console(the kid likes that!) Red antifreeze whatever the difference is there?
Gotta buy a CD now it has a (single) player. What to do with the 8 tracks?????:toot:
We will see how she runs the gauntlet getting into the city tommorrow, hoping most people are already where they are going, but ya never know with the cross bronx exp. always a crap shoot! :doubt:
well thats all the useless info I can think of for now, catch yas later,Rich:bravo:
 
Guess I should order the wood for the deck then :shifty:
Just kidding, it is on the list of things to do with the debt I've piled on myself, if there's any left I may get some interior stuff for the 'Cuda.
But I'm around most of the time, Scotts baseball ends soon(sat games) so whenever your free give me a buzz, drag your "little" brother wioth you too! Rich.
 
your "little" brother
You peeked!!!!!!!!!!:(

Cars are looking good Rich, gonna have to find some time between work and Cub Scouts to get down there for a visit. It's looking like August will be the soonest that I can do.
 
Sounds good, baseball ends by august, so cept for the occasional service call & family gathering I'm around on the week ends.
 
K, so I've used up the last quart of paint, ended up sanding off most of what I put on, back to the original defects(less offensive than some of my new ones) I've come to the conclusion that I've got some paint in my shit !:doh:
From 10' away she sparkles! So it's night & rainy day affairs for me!:shifty:
Anywhoo got a few cheap goodies under the hood to get rid of the last rusty old parts(well cept the headers, there staying a while)

I think it looks great. As for the trunk seal I don't see it settling down but maybe you could trim it down somehow. I just hope you can get your trunk open now.
 
That car has come a long way Rusty.:bravo:

Don'tcha love those aftermarket weatherseals? The lid should settle somewhat, and you can re-adjust it again. Some seals are better than others. Some are just plain crap.
