New project Car

[oldschool]

I know this is not a Charger, but I wanted to share with you guys this awesome find.  I'm putting this in the performance section because I have big performance plans for this car.  I found this car right here in my city  .  The car is a 68 Cuda Fastback, Formula S.  It is all #'s matching, 383 big block with 4 speed. 

My plans with this car are to shelve all the #'s matching drivetrain.  I am going to put a roll cage in it, I'm going to mini tub it, I will be putting a 4.10 Dana in it, I will probably use leaf springs with cal tracks as I do not want to cut the car too much.  I am going to use some fiberglass on it also, I'm trying to get the weight down to 3200 -3300 lbs.  All my other cars are so heavy, this will be a welcome change, maybe I will be able to hook this one up   

My motor plans are at least a 500" motor, but most likely a 572-604.  I would like to have 800 hp on pump gas.  I will also probably get an aluminum block, since I will have to buy a new block anyway.  I'm going to use B1 heads.  I am going to start on the motor soon and I will post progress on the motor.  Some pics of the car.

This is the original very rare radiator.  They use this same radiator all the way up to the hemi SS.

Nice. Your going to keep a 4 speed behind it correct just not the original one?

A-bodies with huge strokers are fun! Love3 the Dart I have, but hooking is a real challenge..
