    The orange has really grown on me. I think cave man in some grey and brown lettering would be fitting.

    I don't know what everyone else's feelings are on running a name used by someone previously or presently but...

    If it was a name on another old school car I would say no, but the roadster in the pic that already has the name is a modern looking car. He will have a list a mile long before this is over, I did.

    Not all of the cool Barracudas had a name.

  12. I agree! Georgia is a little close to home too.
     
  13. Too bad I sold some of my Hemi stuff to fund this project. That one would be awsome!
     
  14. I really like this one, as you see in my avitar, but I've toyed with this paint scheme and I just don't think it looks right on a stock wheelbase car. The S&M car is about 12" longer than mine and in my opinion it makes a difference.

    "Bam Bam" comes to mind after seeing the caveman picture.

    Didn't mean to suggest you paint yours like the Sox & Martin car just that not everybody named them.

    Bert i think that your stock body Cuda would look just fine in a tri color paint set up, might make it look longer too

    Plus just your name & class in turned leaf and run it, don't need no name keep it clean and to the point

    I don't know, but it'd be cool! Other than his car, there's probably not another car with that name.
     
  25. We need to ask around and find him. I can't do it without his say-so. My cars were always black, so was the Hunter.

    Here are a few more ideas for a name.

    The Shuda Wuda Cuda
    The Goldfish (painted light gold)
    The Guppy (fish again)
    Goin' Commando (Plymouth's V8 engines)

    I really like the Bam Bam name, I think it's my favorite. Cool car, I look forward to the updates!
     
  29. This makes the most sense of all. The name don't run.
