I call this model "Barely 'Cuda". I started with a Monogram 1971 Hemi 'Cuda Street Machine, and a Monogram Callaway Corvette Speedster. The Corvette was the donor fot the windshield, interior bucket and dash. the seats are from the Revell Stingray III showcar, and Pegasus Hela 19 & 23 inch wheels round out the build. The rest is either highly modified 'Cuda parts or scratchbuilt.

Lotta people go through life doing things badly. Racing's important to men who do it well. When you're racing, it's life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting.

Thanks, she gets a little twitchy at 160, but right around 180 she smooths right out. ;D

	There's nothing ever wrong but nothing's ever right Such a cruel contradiction I know I cross the lines its not easy to define I'm born to indecision There's always something new some path I'm supposed to choose With no particular rhyme or reason
