Mustang Tech

Mark's Cuda came up to Duggo some time back & other than a trip up to StMarys Prestige for a frame alignment, not much has happened.

However that is all about to change. The Cuda has made it into the shed, will soon lose the diff & front K member so it can be fitted to the frame fixture. Then the surgery can commence.

A little worse for wear, but not as bad as it looks .......









Frame fixture receiving the mods necessary for the Cuda to fit ......



Edit (now called "Hulk" AKA "Kermit")

I think Steve has some pics from the day up there on the Car-O-Liner, so hopefully he can post them here.

I have some on my phone, but having issues getting them to this computer, maybe that will change soon ......

Best name so far .....

I think it's only the paint keeping it together.

Ask moe & jusTANG how long it took to remove the patches on the rear quarter panels ......

But that only helps getting it down to the bare bones faster .....

It is an interesting car. I think it spent the 80s & 90s parked next to Hellanor on the bottom of lake Michigan.

It should keep the old fart out of mischief for a little while.

Please do not call Mark an "old fart" ........ :rotfl:

Sorry, I should have been more specific. What I meant to say was Eleanor hating, phone loosing, cranky old yelling man fart.

What do you mean "old" ? 35 years doing this stuff and I fell for the oldest trap - do not let your heart rule your head.

Lake Michigan is too far away for that rust, probably the Gulf of Mexico as it spent a long time down south of the border.

Only redeeming thing is it's a genuine 383 Magnum ( HIPO) '70 'cuda and they are the toughest looking mopar ever built.

Mo, if I ever hear you refer to it as "Kermit", I'll bitch slap you so hard your grand kids will feel it !!!

Even though this is not a Mustang, it would be good to see the repair work you do in detail, like the "Noback" episode.
You could end up doing a trilogy, like Twilight, but with happy endings, or would that be the Chinese version?
