My main goal will be to get the Cuda ready for paint and get the engine, wheel combo and trans in on the 65 Cuda. I have the 4 wheel disc conversion done and the car is converted to 4.5 BC. The front end is all back together and rebuild using poly bushings.

| I'm still trying to figure out how to get a hydraulic clutch setup to work in my car - once this is solved, I can maybe finally get it started. |

There is a guy on Big Block dart that has an early A with a hydraulic clutch and it looks good. Here are the pics from that site and link.

| Yeah, I'm hoping to get rid of the clutch fork since this is what is hitting the Doug's headers. A slave cylinder requires the use of the clutch fork. |

| Yeah, from what Kiesler has told me, they have stopped selling the bearing for the 833 for the time being, because it had some problems. They are currently re-working it and said it would be ready in the 1st qrt. This is definitely one of the options on my list. |

I would like to get the last two bars welded in my car for the roll bar deal and finish the interior and get back on the motor fine tuning it. Most of all I want to drive it!!!!!! It's been over 10 years!
