1970 FE5 'Cuda Build

[1970Cuda]

Hi EV2RTSE - I often buy my parts from https://www.rosevillemoparts.com/, so that I can support this site and also, the dealer's prices are pretty good. I am actually going to order another few things from the company, including another switch and I definitely will ask to be sure it's U.S. made. The other switch was definitely subpar.

I wanted to provide another update on my project ... we recently installed the following:

1. The LH side door hinges were replaced as they were not holding alignment. I had to find another set of hinges at the swap meet, have them rebuilt, painted them and we installed them a week ago. They are working flawlessly.
2. Added the door weather stripping and the LH side dome light switch.
3. Added to the restoration (finally) the rebuilt steering column. It looks good for my first time rebuilding a column.

I have ordered more parts to restore two more columns, both 1970s. I wanted to complete this first column so that I could get the 'Cuda back on the road and then circle back to actually rebuild my original column.

I'm only attaching one picture for reference.

I decided to go with a Rim Blow steering wheel, but in the meantime, for now, I'll just use my original wood grain wheel.
