71 Cuda Protouring build

[Marc Rieger]

That front Suspension looks nice, where did you get it?

Thank you. I still have my door spring on my hinges. I thought of taking them out though. As I get closer to the final body work, I will look at that..

i was gonna say you don't even need that door plunger I don't run one and the door opens fine with that door lock actuator you have . I ran the same one on my challenger they are quiet and with the remote I can open it from quite a distance. I'll see if I can take some pictures and show you .

I'm doing a 71 challenger very simular to what your doing. Question, What are you going to do with you're back seat? Are you even going to have one. Mine is tubbed a little more than yours and I can't decide what to do. BTW your car looks killer!!

I'm doing a 71 challenger very similar to what you're doing. What is the plan for the back seat area? Mine is tubbed a little more than yours so i'm looking for ideas. any help would or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
