  details!

  Conviction Built For SEMA

  Nicknamed "Conviction Cuda," this car was built for the 2008 SEMA

  show in Las Vegas and a cost is no object build that has resulted

  in one of the most visually and technologically stunning

  pro-touring cars to cruise the streets. Built with parts and

  supplies from all the big names in the automotive business, this

  professionally built Cuda has a great chance of winning every show

  in which it enters. No corners were cut, no shortcuts were taken,

  and this car stands at the pinnacle of the pro-touring

  movement.

  Body Work Perfection

  All the body modifications, and there are many, have been done in

  steel. No fiberglass, no flexible stuff pulled from a mold, not

  even OEM pieces that have been adapted, just hand-formed steel. The

  rear spoiler has been molded into the fender, and there is a

  custom-made hood with OEM-looking nostrils. Look closely and you

  will see flush-mounted glass, shaved door handles and drip rails,

  and fabricated front and rear valence panels. In the rear is a

  custom-made rear panel that houses custom taillights that are

  hand-made LED lights that give it a modern look at night. Like we

  said, perfection!

  Paint, Paint and More Paint

  Part of the show-stealing is certainly due to the paint job. Done

  in PPG Silver Star and Vibrant Purfect Purple with a lot of

  airbrush work, the car is visually arresting in person. The finish

  is the result of hundreds of hours of bodywork, top-quality

  finishes, and another several hundred hours of wet sanding and

  buffing every square inch. Then there's the unique strobe stripe,

  which is paint, not a decal, and is a combination of air brush

  techniques and pinstriping that gives it an almost

  three-dimensional look that seems to be jumping off the metal.

  Now For the Power

  There was never any doubt when this project started that it would

  be Hemi-powered. But not any old Hemi would be enough, so a modern

  6.1-liter Hemi was selected for duty. It is an Arrington-built

  piece that cranks out more than 525 horsepower. Forget tuning

  carburetors, the fuel delivery is handled by a Holley Sniper EFI

  unit.

  The Rest of The Story

  There's a Tremec TKO500 5 speed transmission behind the HEMI

  powerhouse that makes the most of the engine's horsepower. Out

  back, is a Chrysler 8.75-inch rear with 3.91 gears on a limited

  slip. Brakes are from Baer and feature massive vented and

  cross-drilled rotors at all four corners. Those openings in the

  front fascia are not just for show, they feed the front brakes a

  steady supply of cool air. Long tube headers connect to a

  stainless-steel X-pipe and Flowmaster mufflers before terminating

  in custom tips molded into the rear valence. The perfect stance is

  achieved by a set of polished 18" and 20" Bonspeed Quasar wheels

  with 245/40ZR18 front and 295/35ZR20 rear Nitto Invo tires.

  Looking Inside

  Open the door and the first thing you'll notice is that the

  graphics from the exterior continue into the door jambs, which is

  always the sign of first-rate paint work. Then you'll notice the

  Corvette bucket seats that have been custom upholstered. The door

  panels were specially fabricated for this car and hold matching

  inserts to really tie the whole interior together. A custom console

  was fabricated to resemble the original Cuda, but it now features a

  carbon-fiber insert. A billet pistol grip shifter controls the

  5-speed, a cool update on the original that looks right at home in

  this Hemi Cuda. The original dashboard has been reshaped and molded

  to hold a set of Autometer white face gauges. An Alpine head unit

  is nestled up front, while massive Kicker speakers in their own

  custom enclosures.

  If you are the sort of person who wants to own only the best, and

  understands that quality does not compromise, then you are already

  familiar with what this car has to offer. No matter where you look,

  the incredible finishing touches are everywhere!
