I thought 70 340’s were painted orange. And painted blue from April of 71 on. Interesting. 🤔

Ed I’m going by what was in the Dan Gurney cars and from the pictures I have seen there race engines were blue.

Still making some progress on the Cuda’s changed out the radiator lowered the battery and getting the radiator over flow container ready for some chrome. I’ve got some spark plug wires coming from MAD. I’ve also been polishing the bodies and will need to respray them so more paint on order. Thanks for sharing your comments.   |

I’ve been busy on the Cuda’s engine bay and have started fabricating the roll bars. I can’t believe how complex they were but I read somewhere that they were designed on a computer and it was the first time as well. It would be cool if the old files could be used to 3D print them. I appreciate everyone’s comments.   |

The roll bar in the front part has been very tricky to get right I think I have it now for the right side next will be to do the left side and then start on the other car.   |
