Car looks great. You're lucky it's in such good condition.

The neighbors seeing you with a mask on cleaning it:
They think you're being Careful on Covid 19. It's Rat Piss that's worse.

Your a lucky man! Enjoy!

Nice project for sure

Great car. You'll have a lot of fun with that.

Hopefully the mice haven't got into the headliner. If they have, you'll never get the smell out unless you remove and clean out the headliner too...

Found this in the last AAR I restored...

Terrific looking car. The cleaning project is unpleasant but fulfilling at the same time.

I would pull the heater box,I bet it is packed full from the rodent infestation! You can probably kiss the build sheet goodby. It was more than likely used as bedding.

Nice ride-You got your work cut out for you and some money to spend but you will have a very cool car to enjoy for years to come.

What a nice Cuda. With a little bit or work  you'll have it on the road.

Thanks all

I will be looking at the heater box shortly....... going to spend sometime under it this afternoon and under the dash as well.......

I am not sure how much money i will go after to get it road worthy....

I do know I wi take the carpet and front seats out soon.... get it all cleaned inside.  replace the door panels with the new ones, replace the front window trim that it came with, replace the front passenger side lens cover, put the weather stripping on the doors it came with, clean up and/or remove all the wiring for the stereo stuff in the back, replace the missing dash stff and then work on getting the carbs rebuilt (or finding a center carb)  all fluids and new fuel and filters..... then fire it up!,


Where woud they typically place a build sheet in these things?

[usraptor]

In the springs of the back seat or taped to the glove box liner.  Although they have been found it other places also, but those are the most common.

Congrats on getting an amazing Cuda !!

Well, its not inthe springs of the rear seat.....Lol


And dang the glove box is out........ lets hope its in the boxes of parts coming......

It sounds like your uncle was a car guy, working on this Cuda, he likely knew the importance of the broadcast sheet and likely removed it....you should ask his family to keep an eye out for it....it's likely stuck in a file folder, or desk drawer somewhere....

How many of us actually keep the originals in the car ?
