Sorry Mike. Of all the muscle cars you could have built, you chose the best.....ever. Which means basically there is no where for you to go but down now. Had you started off with something like a poor ol' mustang or pitiful camero you could have enjoyed years and years of building muscle cars and always had the anticipation of building that one dream car......the Hemi Cuda'.
Looks great! Is that silver or light blue? I'm keeping my fingers crossed about the campaign. Hope more people get interested since it's winter and we're all cooped up indoors.

I only remember that it was a sort of blue green that I added silver to 
And of course I figured if I was going to build 1 muscle car that it would be a Hemi-'Cuda...dah

Great work on your Cuda, and i think you should build a few more muscle cars like one of those pitiful Mustangs or Camaro or even the lowly Firebird like the 1968 i owned Revell makes a great kit of that one.

Mike forget the hatch back how about a 2006 Mustang GT i own one and it's a muscle car for shore that can even go around corners and has real brakes that stop the car I really like all the old and some of the new muscle cars and the 2 in your pictures would be great for a build, if we get a build going for muscle cars i am in just need to figure out which one i will build.

Mike,
That's a nice looking build, and the color is certainly interesting. The white on black interior scheme looks great (and it doesn't hurt that it's one of my faves).
Oh boy. Thems fightin' words!

If that's what it takes to get a campaign off the ground then I'll drag out the ol' baseball bat and chains.

Too funny, I almost choked on my sandwich!!!! My dad always called the AMC a "cut-off cheese box", anything that can remotely be called something like that is definitely pitiful...
The more I look at the Hemi Cuda the more real/life-like it looks. Awesome build.....
