Sorry, I'm gettin into Mopar- I don't like the new stuff, but older Mopar is quality stuff- I looked at a Cuda and a Charger a while back, I may get one as a daily driver this summer.

For now though I have this Chevy.











And now with new wheels and hood pins.



It has 10" lift, with 3" blocks in rear in place of 1.5" so it's 11.5" lift.
Brand new 350
TH350
39/15x18 Mickey Thompson Baja Belted
14FF rear
4.88 gears
Strobe lights
lots more, but my hands hurt

Looks good, would have gone for some real tires, but still good for a Chevy

Not bad for a Chevy.... ;D J/K!! That's a pretty sweet machine you have there. And don't worry, there's other GM owners here (I'm one of them).
