1973 Plymouth 'Cuda 340 restoration project

[BarTT]

Hi Everyone,

restoration of my 1973 'Cuda has started. I will show my progress here, i hope some of you will find it interesting. First total disassembly of course. I'm taking tons of photos for future assembly work and describing everything.

Two pics from 2019 when i bought her.

Next three pics taken a few days ago. Interior, glass and transmission are out.

Looking forward to seeing your progress!

Love the slots! What`s the plan - stock resto or ???

[BarTT]

Stock restoration. Motor and trans (3 spd. manual in console) are original to the car and fender tag is there, so i will stay stock. I will return to the original factory color (JF1 Mist Green with black side stripes). I will do my best restoring her. 

Three photos of present condition with engine taken out of the car.

All the way in POLAND.  Very cool and ask around as some people here can hopefully help you find ways to save money on shipping.  Good luck on your restoration.

Looks like you have your hands full!

Interesting that a Wisconsin tagged car ends up in Poland.

It will be neat to see it restored back to original

Very cool -- good luck with the project!

A gentleman in the Toronto area finished up a similar car in Mist Green, I will post up pictures if I can find them.

Keep up the good work!

Good luck with your restoration. Nothing wrong with JF1 . This is the last one I built.

I think the colour is unique and looks great when new, and certainly a stand-out in a crowd of yellows, reds and blues...
The 73 I bought this Summer has no tag/sheet but signs of that colour everywhere....but I don't think the new owner would want that colour on his resto-mod.
