Picked up the 69 RS Z-28 this morning

No, That was my first foray into 71 Cuda Convertibles. It was a 71 383, automatic ragtop. I traded a 72 Vega that my neighbors abandoned in my yard for it. (With my luck it probably turned out to be a Yenko Stinger Vega ) The Cuda was abandoned by an Air Force Guy at Lowry Air Force base in Denver in the early 1980s and was towed to this lot. All original drivetrain intact, but from Rochester NY originally = salt. It even had the title in the glove compartment! Here's the finished product in 1985. It was far worse than the Z28 pictured above: when you sat in the driver's seat, your feet were flat on the pavement below, Flintstone-style.
