It was great to see the car in person in Wyoming, keep up the great work.
Looks great, you are gonna put it all back together, motor, rear end, front suspension, and everything to trailer it to a car show, then tear it all back down again, for blocking and paint, man, your a work horse. When I did the body work on my road runner, I think I swept the garage 100 times, I didn`t have air tools, I used the rubber sanding block and a body board, it took me 3 months, hehe. This Cuda is gonna be a beast and it should handle like a go cart. My buddy had a stock 440 Cuda, and I tell you what, it was a handfull keeping it in a straight line, he had a cam, aluminum intake, and some head work done on the 906 heads, that thing was scary on the side streets, love the build, glad your taking us along for the ride.
Should be a riot to drive!
Please do what most others dont do as they should when fully restoring a classic muscle car such as this. Paint the whole outside and interior and bottom and top of vehicle before u install anything and i mean anything such as wiring and tubing and gas lines and engine harnesses and other etc paint the whole entire body before doing anything and make sure paint is top notch before installing anything please we dont normally or usually get to see this process on other youtuber car rebuilders sadly only a few. This js why ur channel is far better then most so keep up the great work Rust bucket Restos❤ u deserve a million subscribers just thought id mention that u are sadly underrated but i do truly love ur channel. And hope u reach ur goal. Please dont give up ❤
Thanks brother! & this car will be painted top to bottom!
I'm voting for plum crazy purple. I remember back in high School my uncle had one. Purple with white interior and a white checkered stripe. Man that car was a lot of fun to drive. God bless
😎🤘
You must be a workaholic! Your hard work and dedication is appreciated by all the subscribers.
Thanks for the kind words! 😎🤘
Nice work waiting for the Charger.
The kudos looks very good. Don't work, panic, crazy plunpurple.
😎🤘
Hitting like before I even watch the video because I have no doubt the content will be great.
😎🤘
Plum crazy with white graphics. I am not a huge fan of purple but that color on cudas and challengers looks fantastic.
😎🤘
Wish I could be there to meet you but this weekend filled up plum purple /black hood always my favorite but I’m sure you’ll get the right color and Happy Birthday to your Dad
Car looks amazing. Fantastic job!
Thanks brother! 😎🤘
that CUDA is going to look awesome in any color
😎🤘
Congrats a lot of work- great job!
Thanks for watching!
I would definitely choose an OE color that Chrysler offered for Cudas in 1971. Some of the modern color choices would not look right on that body style and if touch ups or repaints are necessary and OE paint code is easier to duplicate. I vote for paint code DT8549, evening blue.
I love it brother I know u have work so hard please don't get to hot the heat index in Arkansas is 110 its hot to do anything can't wait to see it done u do such a awesome job and wait to see the charger done 👍
Thanks man! 😎🤘
I'm a Ford guy but have huge mopar respect (not a GM product = win).
Dodge/Plymouth had such great colors and I'm a sucker for green, so gotta go Sublime with black Hemi billboards
Amazing progress! Your work ethic is inspirational. I hope you make it to the show. People should see this work in person. Thank you for sharing all your hard work.
Watch the video that posted today! You’re going to like it!
Great progress
😎🤘
metallic plum crazy purple
BEAutiful

Man that trans tunnel came out great! That Cuda is going to be soooooo Sweeeeet! Hell it already is! B5 blue OR Go Mango! I kinda like both. LOL!
🤩🤘
My color choice would be a candy red, black, or a combination of the two. Nice work so far.
Thanks brother 😎💪
Nice work on the trans. Tunnel, the car is looking awesome. Color I think some sort of blue
Looking great there man ,carry on ..
😎🤘
Looking great boss! I need to get some of your energy. Go with B5 blue.
Excellent job Baby Blue looks nice on these body styles that's just my taste, With the1970’s Aluminum polIished Slot Mags Rims Wheels 15” Rears 14” Fronts It will be awesome what ever you choose.
🤘😎
Man what a great job on the tunnel, the whole car to this point, I just can't wait to see the next video!!
Thanks for watching! 😎🤘
Great job on the body work. Top quality work
It’s getting there! Thanks for watching!
Sheeeesh bro that’s gonna be one killer cuda those things don’t exist over here in the Uk and I’m a massive American muscle car fan soooo glad I stumbled across your channel.. I think it would look freaking awesome in a candy orange 🤷♂️ but that’s just me it’d look awesome in any colour
😎🤘
Lemon Twist for colour
Amazing progress and quality of your build
Congratulations
Looks great
Thank you! 😎🤘
Awesome work👍, its looking very good, my top three favorite colors for a 1971 Cuda are Lemon Twist Y1, Vitamin C K2, and Limelight J5. All the High impact colors are awesome.🤘
What a fantastic job you have done with the cuda so far, can't wait to see what paint color you will choose for it.
Thanks brother 😎🤘
Great episode. Can't wait for the body work, paint and interior. I seem to remember when you started this build you said something like for the most part, it will look almost exactly factory, with all the goodies kind of hidden away. That would be awesome. Would love to see this car in black, with white graphics. I don't recall seeing many black classic Cudas/Challengers. This car is going to be so sweet, most any color would look great on it. Your vids are very instructional. Although I'll never attempt anything like this, I've often wondered how some of this work is done. Now I know. P.S. I still love Mustangs, still have my show Mustang, and I am still glad you didn't block me for it the last time. LOL! (I love ALL classic muscle cars)
I won’t hold it against you… wait, just kidding… 🤩
You did a great job my friend!
Thanks brother 😎🤘
I am normally a Chevy guy (well I do like all kinds of Classic Muscle cars) 70-71 Cuda is one car I would love to own. really liking the way this one is turning out. (I would have stuck with the flat original hood as really no-one is keeping the standard hood on them)
YOU KNOW What Color(s) I'd do ... 😉 Regardless, a Helluva lot of work done to this point and it's all been on point and beyond! She looks like a ghost ship right now, and no matter what color / color combo you choose, it'll be outta this world!
Excellent Job Dave! Can't say it enough!
God Bless
😎
Thanks brother! 😎🤘
Do deep sparkle green sparkle purple or sparkle blue even Sparkle red on how the 70s was with their colors keep it vintage colors please would be epic Rust Bucket Restos ❤
😎🤘
Yay!!! Look at dat der Cuda!!!!!!
💪😎
Amazing work ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Plum crazy w/ black stripes and black interior
😎🤘
Just an amazing job you are doing on this car 👍 would love to be able to see this car in person, best to you and yours
Thanks brother! 💪😎
Green with Envy color. It was a metallic pearl paint. Offered only on 2011 Challengers. Also like Inferno Red. It was a red metallic that we had on a 1996 Chrysler Concord. The color seemed to change in subsequent years.
2023 Mazda red called "SOUL RED CRYSTAL METALLIC"
That is a Real pretty color a guy down the street from me has one, I'm not sure it would look good on a Barracuda/cuda
I LOVE that color!
Beautiful build , great content , very enjoyable , can’t wait to see big fat feet
Thanks for watching! 😎🤘
Yellow with black super bee look
Looks really good, that’s a lot of work. Congrats !
Winchester grey is a nice color. Carbon fiber hemi graphics maybe.
Love that color! 😎🤘
Yes this video was a bit confusing.
The car looks great!
Where is T-Bone?
Where is your Wife?
I like seeing you go from fleecy winter clothing to t-shirts. It’s freezing here in Oz 🇦🇺
Sublime green or Plum crazy Purple, either has to have the Cuda Billboard stripe
I think Sublime Green would be sweet.
😎🤘
I was looking forward to you redoing the window trim. But the valuable information on body filler more than makes up for it. I’m sure we can discount green altogether. Will it be a Dodge modern color? I think a burnt amber would be cool.
😎🤘
Grüße aus Deutschland ✌️
😎🤘
Finally!! I've been waiting lol
😎💪
Man, how I wish I could come out from Indiana to that car show! That tunnel turned out fantastic. Even with all the skipping around, this episode was epic. Even the background music was pretty killer, haha. Can't wait for the next episode!
😎🤘
An absolute epic build, the amount of work and effort that's went into this is a credit to you, can't wait to see the next step, as for a paint colour, defo not the "shitty pea green"😂 Porsche Arctic grey would be nice!🙌🏼
always great job....congrat...
Panther pink with full billboard hemi
Now we’re talkin! 😎🤘
looks good
BMW makes a stunning wine-like red.
🤩🤘
Blue
I'm sure what ever colour you pick will be nice on this car, I'm guessing copper or burnt orange.
🤩🤘
It would have to be a high impact color for me, and I would hate to cover your beautiful quarters, but hemi billboards for sure, I don`t like it, but do you know how rare the Panther Pink is on Cuda`s.
Looking better and better bitchin cool😅😂❤ going to be awesome.
😎🤘
Do you still have the front fender brackets to add to it?
I know you had a lot of sponsors on this build, I would love to know the final cost when it`s all said and done. I have been watching a lot of Mecum Auctions lately, and these resto mods are fetching, 50-70k, is stock carpet gonna fit over that beast of a trans tunnel?
Probably $30-40k in parts and 1,000 hours of labor. Crossing my fingers the carpet fits! 🤞
I think the car would look good with either in violet purple or burnt orange with the black billboards on the side I’m not quite sure what they’re called
Plumb Crazy.
😎🤘
Gunmetal gray with black billboards “HEMI”!
Hemi billboards are a must!
Plum crazy with black graphics.
😎
dam man your a smart guy where did you learn all these skills, i remember the first video on this car and it was a hunk of junk, now look at that beautiful body, i an curious how many hours this took you so far, this car would look sweet in red with a black billboard 392 on it, seen that on graveyard cars and it looks good,but i didnt like the colour they used,cant wait for the next video, cheers from Canada, 😊😊😊
Thanks brother! Self taught through many hours of mistakes & learning how to do it the right way. Hemi billboards are a must! I probably have 700-800 hours into this build so far.
@@rustbucketrestos6511 thats kool
💪😎
Im down under and i agree on the 3m platinum plus on all the restos i do
Awesome
I'm a diehard Chevrolet guy but I have owned several Mopars and I love your channel. You do amazing work and that Cuda would look awesome in the factory Hemi Orange but it's gonna look amazing in any color except green🤢🤮 I hate green lol so please don't paint it green bro lol.
My pick for a color would be Plum Crazy. It is a Mopar color.
🤩
Top demais 😮
😎🤘
Do light green with black hood, with the 440 bill board.
The black hood does look pretty slick! 😎🤘
Fc7 plum crazy purple
😎🤘
Bright blue Metallic it is a newer Mopar color it would look good and the interior black with blue cording
Gomango
😎
👌👌💪💪
Moulin Rouge
🤩🤘
loving the progress on the build, but what happened to the Charger??
I’ll get back to it in a couple months.
midnight blue metalic
🤩🤘
I think it would super cool in the original moss green with green steelies and dog dishes...no louvers, no spoiler, no billboards...make it look like a 100% OEM original hemi cuda
😎🤘
Couldn't you have used the Trans tunnel from the donor car the motor came from???
Octane Red
😎🤘
Paint daytona blue
😎🤘
👍🏻🇦🇺
As long as it's not that nardo grey primer with clear coat bullsh#t any colour will do.
😂🤘
Hello I have a question for you, why do you not work on the charger
Because the Cuda got sponsored by a few companies & I have commitment dates to get it finished. I’ll be back on the Charger in a few months
@@rustbucketrestos6511 that’s nice and I was thinking that you don’t have time for it
Whatever color you choose, don't choose ANY VARIATION of the current trend of shiney Battleship Grey!
Oops…
red or black
Im first Im first Im the first in the comment section.😊
If you ain’t first, you’re last!
@@rustbucketrestos6511 😆
Do you have a regular job?
U seem like a gun metal or silver kinda guy thats probably the color lol
If the body is straight enough after bodywork, make it black. Otherwise, hemi orange.
🤩🤘
Was that a pregnant nun walking by @23:16 ??
🤣😂
WTF do you do for a living my guy??
🤷♂️
@rustbucketrestos6511 lol....well keep it up!!!
