Ok, those are both bad-mammajammas!:biggthumpup: one last drive around the Ranch before the teardown for paint begins tomorrow. Of course I had to test out the traction of the F70s just because. Kelly was ready with the bags so everything will be labeled for Steve for reassembly. Eeeeevvvryyyy nut, bolt, screw will be inventoried. All bags labeled "Cuda" BWAHAHAHAHA.. cough..... cough....oh, sorry. Don't know what came over me....:eek2::no::biggthumpup:

Cheers:beers:

Pretty good marks for single-legger 3.23!

Darn kids! Now get off my lawn and git back to the garage!

Dave, if you don't, you should start a YouTube Channel. I think you could get a ton of subscribers who would help finance your addiction...err....hobby, seriously.

Hmmm, ya know, Mark? That’s a good idea. I do have a channel but have been keeping all the videos private since they are of my parents house being built and not anything of interest to anyone but them. I should do some for the Cuda and 507 for sure!:biggthumpup:

Problem is I’m not overly video-tech-editing savvy. Would love to take several then crop them together but that’s way above my paygrade.:crazy: Does YouTube help with that and what’s best to use? My phone? Buy a GoPro?:hmmm:

Cheers:beers:

Depending on your computer and how old it is...Windows Movie Maker can help out out...it's easy to use and it's free. Newer computers don't have it...older ones do :)


Call me if you need any help. It's what I use for these:

Here's a community project for anyone with a decent memory for Chrysler dealers. This is the original dealer sticker on the back of the Cuda, at the bottom. (There is a second sticker that is legible but that was a used car lot in Rhode Island)

The decal appears to have a faint glue residue image of four letters which I think may be "ERIE". When I google ERIE Chrysler Plymouth I get a result of a dealer with that name located on 704 East Perkins Avenue in Sandusky, Ohio from the early 1960's through at least the late 1970s when it was sold to another owner. From a newspaper ad it looks like they were something of a performance dealer since they had Walt Arfon's Green Monster on display on June 22, 1966.

Anyone recall this dealer or any other Erie Chrysler Plymouths out there?

Here's a couple ads from the Sandusky Register. Unfortunately the newspaper archives on the interwebs require an expensive subscription to view the actual page any larger than a thumbnail size.

The dealership name logo in the ads looks similar to my hallucination of what I think is on the decal residue.

Teardown for paint??? I must have missed that detail somewhere along the way.
I like the Crusty ‘cuda just the way it is, but you haven’t disappointed me yet. Do what ya gotta do...

Oh, don't you worry. I've disappointed plenty. Just hang with me a bit more and I'm sure it'll happen....:shocked: But yes, paint is fast approaching!

I started the teardown and started labeling bags for Steve when the time comes to put it back together:scholar:

Cheers
Dave

Hey, I'll have you know there's washers in that bag too! Whatever you are paying her, cut it in half.
