Hey All -

I am not sure who all here watches Velocity's Garage Squad, but Wednesday night's episode involved an FC-7 'Cuda convertible that's been sitting in a shed for the past twenty years.

Joe was in heaven, seeing as how he's a big MoPar guy...If you haven't seen the episode yet, I encourage you to check it out as they did the car well. [emoji41]

I haven't watched that show for quite a while. That one fellow seems to be a true Mopar guy though. He seemed to know his stuff on a Super Bee they did as well as a Charger.

Joe is a Mopar guy to the core.  I think the show could be better without Bruno.  He shows his ignorance a lot.  Maybe it was just me but something looked a bit off with the rear quarter wheel opening.  I do enjoy seeing Mopars on these shows.

Can't get this on HULU and I'm too cheap to pay for cable. I'll have to find it somewhere else because I'd love to watch it. From the pics, it looks like they were starting off with something pretty solid.

I think you can get the episodes as an Amazon Prime Member?

Joe seems to be a great down to earth guy who knows his stuff, even owns his own shop called Prison City and posts videos to help mechanics out.  http://joezolper.com/

I watched that episode; nice car.  I like how they got the right tailpipe tips installed.  It looked funny with the small rectangular ones sticking out.  I don't know if it was a BS or not but all the shows call them a cuda no matter what.  It will air again and I will see if they show any details on it.

They do show details, no fog lamps, red grill bars, no hood pins, no hood call outs. No door panel emblems, wrong year seats. no chrome around the tail panel.  You people tough me well!!!   :alan2cents:  The body looked clean, and I think the car looked sharp. I hope they didn't pay 'cuda 340 money for it if indeed it isn't.

They definitely made the vert better but jeez the undercarriage and the suspension parts were rusted to hell.

Downside is they only have so much time...

Joe loves Mopar but is not a diehard, he builds plenty of Chevies also. I haven`t seen the `cuda episode yet but will check it out soon.
