It was an exemplar draft...for you guys to kick around and discuss, with it in mind to answer (2) simple questions. For one, I'm not upset regarding any comments I've seen so far. I asked for your feedback, and I'm getting lots... Not necessarily all feedback is on topic - but I'll sort out -...

The "Repo" spelling error is a major concern of mine. Given my edjamacation, I should have caught this mistake long before post. Rest assured - a correction of this distracting error, is at the very, very top of my to-do list. Thank-you.

I prefer steak and potatoes myself - if that helps contribute to our hobby. In the meantime, I'll stay focused upon the original thread's content & objective. Should I decide to proceed further: The U.S.A. and Canada are both STILL on the table, in sharing key elements of the Manufacturing...

Good Morning... I am reviewing all of your comments and I appreciate the critiques, suggestions and questions. I will be responding to your initial questions and concerns shortly. Thank-you :)

HPD Custom Hood Prototype - Survey Closed.

I don't pretend to have the mechanical bragging rights of so many others on FBBO, but I can tell you, I just had a set of closed chamber EDE E-Streets professionally installed on my 440 and I am loving these heads. Without getting into all of the technical specs and various equipment combos -...

I must say, "That's a good one!". I quite like your image of blasting down Route 66. It's funny, you also mentioned 'gears'. A custom (bullet proof) rear axle - is on my remaining to-do list... Thank-you for your comment :)

You got me there. As I said earlier, my memory is beginning to fail me. I know they were blacked out years ago when I was pursuing a much darker theme, but now, I must double check this part - to be sure. No doubt, others also know on first glance, if it's a '68 or '69 part. Thank-you for your...

For example... one idea I would now like to pursue, is an original hood prototype, I designed back in 2010. The current hood, is a failed attempt to create, what I had envisioned. I could have taken the easier route, and gone with something like the RR's 6-pack hood, but I wanted something...

The cruise control was not stock on this car. It is an era correct mopar cruise control unit, complete with all cables and driver control, situated on the matching signal lever, that my brother installed about 25 years ago. I do not remember the exact source. I have since disconnected the carb...

I knew you would figure it out eventually. lol.

The front arm rests, are original, as far as I know. They came with the car and I've never had a reason to swap 'em out. I won't totally give away what you guys have missed, but will sit on the obvious answer - for a bit longer :)

Lol... not bad, not bad. Late '68 X's came with headrests thou. I know my first '68 X did, back in the day. Wow... I'm surprised. You guys are still missing one of the most OBVIOUS '69 mods :)
