My 69 Fastback 5.7 is almost done after 5 years!

[robertnb64]

5 years ago I got a used 5.7 out of a 2003 Dodge Ram and started my project in my 69 Cuda Fastback. It took a few months to get the engine, trans and electronics in the car and working and drove the car in Sep of 07 for the 1st time.

Now almost 5 years later I am almost done with a full restoration and ready to unveil the car!

the 2012 Spring Fling will be the 1st official car show I will have the car at.

I have a few photos of the car back when I got the engine in and now as I have it primered, many new photos will follow soon!
