1974 to 1971

Psycho · 04-05-2008, 06:57 AM

hello all. i have a couple thousand (HAHA) questions. i own a 1974 cuda with no motor or tranny.... but i love the looks of the 71 (i guess like everyone else) if i change out my tail lite panel, both bumpers, front fenders, and grill would it look like a 71? im not looking for a concours B-J auction ready car just one i can drive back and forth to work or cruise night and NOT worry about somebody scratching my paint or dinging my door. my buddy's wife has a rear-ended totaled 05 MAGNUM with a hemi he said i could take as many parts (motor,tranny,a/c,wiring,etc) that i want to install it into my car. i figured after installing it could order from STYLIN CONCEPTS a shaker hood for the hemi.... i do realize it will take ALOT of work but..... thanks for your time and i promise my next post wont be so long HAHA!

There's a tremendous amount of aftermarket parts available. I'd say continue on and don't look back. With that engine and hopefully the trans to, you should have a real kool combination.

I do agree about having a car that you dont have to worry about, that is my goal too. I also agree with mopar guy in delaware, once you start...go for it!
