68 Barracuda grille surrounds

Wow, Leanna, I had no idea you did that type of work! Very nice, indeed.

Thank you!! Until then, I honestly had no idea I did that kind of work either. LOL :-D That was my first attempt at a Cuda front grille assembly, and it evolved into a combination of restoration / trim polishing and powder coating. I have two more Cuda front grille assemblies just like it in line right now (well, not quite as beat up as that first one was).


hey cudachick, can you restore the trunk moulding for a 68 cuda? how long would it take ? about how much? you can pm me .......

I could PM you but there's no reason to hide this from anyone. Besides, you're probably not the only person who's wondering that same thing right now. :-D

I've never tried to restore trunk trim moulding 0ld school but I suppose there's always a first time. I'll tell you straight up though that the guys who do that kind of trim resto full time charge a lot of money for a reason -- it's a TON of very time-consuming, tedious work ... and the tools are expensive too (but I'm finding most of mine that work well are homemade).

I've got a long way to go before I feel confident enough with this to claim any kind of expertise or to "advertise" that I do it ... but I also realize that the places who were always there for us are dropping like flies and someone has fill the void. Chances are good that what you get back from me won't be perfect, but it will look a helluva lot better than it did when it got here.

Just like with every other job, I'll quote yours individually too. It's easiest for me to see what's involved and you get the most accurate estimate if you can send me good, detailed pictures of all the "dirt" -- dings, dents, divots, etc., and I'll write you back with an idea. But just one word of advice: Please be sitting down with your favorite libation at hand when you read my reply ... I don't want anyone getting hurt when they pass out and hit their head on the computer desk. That stuff is expensive!!!

I hope ya'll understand where I'm coming from on this. It's not my intention to turn PSC into a trim restoration shop by any means, but I don't want to totally slam the door on you either.

And just to entice the masses a bit in closing, just wait til you see this pair of totally trashed '68 Barracuda hood inserts I just finished up ............ heh hehhhhhhhhhhhhhh
