I’m 45 I have to young kids. I’m a ups guy I work 50 plus hours a week. I’ve had my chevelle for 26 years. It was my daily, I raced it at redline road in Philly pre fast and the furious. Thanks to Tony’s channel 🙏🏻 my sons are pumped to get my car rolling again. THANK YOU FOR THE MOTIVATION!! 3 weeks in we did new breaks, crab plugs fluids, tires and we are rolling. Thank you, Tony! Love what you do!
I so enjoy this version of Tony instead of the big channel stuff. Just feels right, thanks for doing you and letting me kill 30 minutes on a late night.
I love that cuda. I have a book written by the Gm engineer who built the ls1 and c5 Vette and he talks about how the oil pan is a major structural part on the ls motors. I never run a pan that don’t bolt to the transmission. I know everyone runs regular pans like canton etc. but on aluminum motors it’s definitely a important part.
@TONY ,,, Back when you were building this car originally, I tried to get you to call CARL GERST. He is the original builder/engineer of what is now, QA1's front end that you are so happy with today.... You should have listened to me!!!!!!
Grew up with uncles that were all Mopar or no car and remember pulling wheel stands in one uncle dusters and sitting in one's driveway with 68 roadrunner he traded dirt bike for no interior but it had big block and he wo round up old tires and all us cousins we sit inside taking turns as he just sit and bake set after set of tires and we had pleasure of changing that's was some of hundreds great memories as kid in Bedford PA that was vacation away from York bald hills were I grew up but the Cuda was one of my all time favorite cars and would love to have one maybe someday keep up great work and have great day.
I wanna do a similar pro touring treatment on a 1981 Z28 Camaro! It's the ultimate evolution of the 2nd gen bodystyle and they look SO rad in black with the firey orange and red graphics, just they never had the oomph to match the looks when they came out. Easily remedied!
It wouldn't pass most regs, as the suspension has been completely reconfigured from the original type, but it's way better than it would have ever been with leaf springs!
More mopar madness! Love it. I'm your number one apreceator with US roots who lives in the Netherlands. I lived in MA for ten years. The channel is down to earth, funny and has its own identity. I friggin love it. Soon there will be too many comments to reply too. But remember this guy, the Dutch one. Been with you since the first few weeks and I'm rooting for the channel to be exactly what you want it to be. Cheers Tony!
Hi Tony and Crew, I found out a couple of years ago, after 54 yrs. that wearing a Under Armor helmet liner works much better than a hat, it keeps your dome covered and it isn't always getting knocked off at the worst possible time. It's easier to wear a welding helmet, grinding shield or a head light. Try it you might like it! Then you can get stay tuned ones made!!
Your magnetic oil plug tip... "Just ignore it! OK... Doesn't matter. She's fine." Sounded like you were channeling Derek Bieri from Vice Grip Garage? ;) Love that Cuda! Have fun with it!
Tony, i have found that if you put a little gasoline on it and agitate it with a brush, the floor dry becomes almost infinitely reusable. Been using the same oil dry for a few yrs. Antifreeze, oil, washer fluid... it works for them all. If you have oil spots in your concrete, put gas on it, scrub for a 20-40 seconds then top with oil dry. It will pull the oil stain out of the concrete.
Tony that Cuda is wicked! I watched the video while I was at chemo. Thanks for the kind words. Keep up the content, which helps me fight! Pancreatic cancer sucks!
Im a big fan of yours but I've been keeping a super close eye on all of your content patiently waiting to see you come back to this car. As a die hard mopar guy, and a drift guy, this makes me super excited. keep it up!
I remember watching the initial build of this, never liked the flares but the rest is dope. Old 2doors need the guards pumped, stock lines just fat and tough..
The struggle of modifying cars is knowing that this pretty much never workout as planned. Good job on coming back to your dream build and working out the little details. People don’t know how much work and dedication it takes to get to a finished product that you can finally enjoy and have fun. Love this channel.
I remember watching the Cuda on HRG. I particularly remember watching it on the drift track. There was a slow motion shot of it coming out of the corner and the right rear quarter panel was jiggling like Jello. I often wondered if I was the only one who saw that.
Gotta say, this new suspension got me fall in love the car's whole silhouette all over again. There's just something about a vintage body on a drift stance that ticks my boxes, tho i'm sure it can get a bit lower for that hella nasty look.
I’m so disappointed that I didn’t get any tire smoke in this episode but I did get Arugula on a pizza so you’re forgiven. Much love Brother. Keep kicking ass. Do a drag and drive soon!
Dude I watched this video just 🙏 that the Cuda would finally be road worthy..the last 2 mins I had a huge smile on my face...so awesome to see and even better to hear that hemi scream!!!
If Stay Tuned turned into a pizza channel I’d still watch religiously.
Wait, I thought it was with a sprinkling of car stuff…
Yeah, double Mopar goodness on this pie. But I’m still questioning the salad on there,,, lol
Seriously, west coast delivery doesn't look like that..
West coast pizza, delivery does not look like this.. well done sir..
It kinda is 😂 🍕
I cannot believe it was 2016 when we watched up explaining the drift suspension and how it all worked. 7 years ago ! Where does the time go !!
I'm glad he's back on his own channel.
I watched a few videos on Hagerty, but it was a pain getting to just Tony's stuff
How do I like this video more than once. Cuda! Cuda! Cuda! Cuda! Cuda!
YES! been waiting YEARS for this day.
Tony's back in love with the Cuda. Looking forward to seeing you get the bugs worked out and putting some miles on it.
Thanks! Appreciate it!
99% sure this is my favorite car from the entire motor trend catalog. By far the best looking.

Love what you do!
I have never been a fan of big graphics on cars but that strobe stripe on that thing is killer
Stoked to see the Super Mario 'stache is back. Baller!
HA, I just let my 7 year old dictate my facial hair this week, and this is the result.
Thought you lost a bet 😂
Hearing the air hammer sped up like a kazoo was pretty funny! Hope you get to enjoy the upgraded Cuda
I like Tony's 70's Cop look 😊
That car is so sick. She is gorgeous!!!!!!!!
So happy that you brought this back Tony!
Thanks! I'm glad we are getting back into it!
@@StayTunedTA
Gearstar transmissions any good?

This is by far my most favorite car you have built.
I remember when the car was first finished, I could tell u weren’t totally stoked on it
Missed this car cant wait to see it on a road course!
Love that pizza is still part of your party, Tony. Glad to see you working on the 'Cuda. Was a fun watch on HRG.
Right on! Thanks!
The pizza joints in PA need to get on board and offer Stay Tuned signature pizzas!
I agree with this!
I'm glad you're finally getting the opportunity to turn this car into what it can be. It's way to cool to half ass it.
The boogie nights tash really goes with the car 👌
I'm glad your having fun in your Cuda Tony. Hats off to you and your crew for making this Mopar shine.
With that sweet stache, you and barb are officially Mario and Luigi.
That stash makes Tony look like Super Mario
I was lucky enough to be there when you unveiled Fishtail at SEMA. Love to see more of it!!! 🤘
So stoked to see this cuda get dialed in
A awesome car made even better, we'll done guys!!! Miss you on Hot Rod Garage Tony!
👍👍 awesome... can't wait to see this bad boy hitting the track
THAT is a fine sounding automobile!
@TONY ,,, Back when you were building this car originally, I tried to get you to call CARL GERST. He is the original builder/engineer of what is now, QA1's front end that you are so happy with today.... You should have listened to me!!!!!!
Always enjoy hanging w/you fellas!! Play your vides while working on my toys and pretend yall are kicking it there!😂😂jk
Enjoy working on toys.!!
So cool!
I remember way back when you first got it and start the Sema thrash.
i love fishtail cuda. awesome car. awesome episode. awesome people
Grew up with uncles that were all Mopar or no car and remember pulling wheel stands in one uncle dusters and sitting in one's driveway with 68 roadrunner he traded dirt bike for no interior but it had big block and he wo round up old tires and all us cousins we sit inside taking turns as he just sit and bake set after set of tires and we had pleasure of changing that's was some of hundreds great memories as kid in Bedford PA that was vacation away from York bald hills were I grew up but the Cuda was one of my all time favorite cars and would love to have one maybe someday keep up great work and have great day.

Such an insanely awesome car. The engine choice and color/decal combo are perfection 👌
For the love of Christ. Ive been waiting YEARS for this.
Brother, a shaker ram air hood wood be sick!!!!!
Love the manly stash - So much Tony ❤️❤️
I love that thing!!!!! Top 3 favorite for me as well. Great work! That thing sounds Amazing!!!!!
Love the K&G speed shop shirt. Glad to see a local place to me get some love !
I had no idea you raced in drifting cars for 10 years!
Neat!
somehow every video is even better than the last.
That thing looks fun to drive 👍🏽
Fishtail ‘Cuda smoky drift t shirts for the win!! I’d buy one of those, Tony!
Would love to see the Cuda in competitions.
It wouldn't pass most regs, as the suspension has been completely reconfigured from the original type, but it's way better than it would have ever been with leaf springs!
More mopar madness! Love it. I'm your number one apreceator with US roots who lives in the Netherlands. I lived in MA for ten years. The channel is down to earth, funny and has its own identity.

Also this episode got me inspired to get my '73 Dart back on the road!
SHES BACK! This car made the cuda become my dream car back in hs. Yours is so badass, glad it’s getting love again!
Awesome! Thanks for watching.
Most underrated channel on UA-cam. Keep ‘em coming boys!
Air hammer in fast forward is my new favorite sound
It does rule, right?!
Mr. B. Here ! Hi guys , you guys funny working together! 🍺🍺🍕🍕👍👍. Happy 4th 🇺🇸🇺🇸 ! Having internet 🛜 issues !
How could you not love this car.
Edit......oh OK I see, lol but now it is finally going to have that sick finish
So sick! Hopefully you get to enjoy and play a bit before it goes under the knife for metal flares.

Cant wait for the Drift CUDA track day!
It's being edited now, probably another week and we will have it back!
Thank you for giving the Cuda the justice it deserved.
I love that car and I love that you got it where you want it now.
Got to love that Cuda. It looks great,sounds great, and tears it up
I even like the fender flares. It’s like a JDM style fusion with Old Miscle.
Nice to see it getting some love!
Your magnetic oil plug tip... "Just ignore it! OK... Doesn't matter. She's fine." Sounded like you were channeling Derek Bieri from Vice Grip Garage? ;) Love that Cuda! Have fun with it!
Tony channeling his inner gene takeavik with that tash and glasses (Saul goodman-better call Saul)
Loved the look on Tony’s face during the test drive. I’m pumped for this!
Take this thing on drift week
Pretty much my favourite HRG build, so awesome to see it back. The test drive had me smile 🙂 Thanks for the video!
The Food on this show! ❤
We like to eat!
Tony, i have found that if you put a little gasoline on it and agitate it with a brush, the floor dry becomes almost infinitely reusable. Been using the same oil dry for a few yrs.

No way, I'll try that for sure!
Hay Tony, you were kind enough to answer my questions at Drift Atlanta, in between yelling that the judges sucked, miss seeing you on the track.
Ha! That must have been forever ago but glad we got a moment to talk. Who was yelling the judges suck, me or you?
@@StayTunedTA You bro! All You! LOL!! Then you became a judge. Ha!
Tony that Cuda is wicked! I watched the video while I was at chemo. Thanks for the kind words. Keep up the content, which helps me fight! Pancreatic cancer sucks!
Awe man! That’s ten kinda of awesome when you see the pay off shots
Love the Cuda it's totally badass..
Thanks! It was a long time dreaming that up and finally getting it rocking feels good!
Im a big fan of yours but I've been keeping a super close eye on all of your content patiently waiting to see you come back to this car. As a die hard mopar guy, and a drift guy, this makes me super excited. keep it up!
A Mopar guy and a Drift guy? Welcome to the club, there's 9 of us worldwide!~
😂
This is exactly what I want to do with my built '69 Charger RT. The factory suspension is absolutely horrible... TY for this video!
Dude, I've missed this car. I forget where, but i remember it from a few years ago. Much love from AZ Tony!! 🤙🏻
God its my dream set up im so glad tour finally finishing this build
I remember watching the initial build of this, never liked the flares but the rest is dope. Old 2doors need the guards pumped, stock lines just fat and tough..
Zoom Zooom Zoomie at the end!
FINALLY!! i have waited for ever since you guys built it on hotrod garage to see this car rip around a track sideways :D
We are taking it out for a track day next week! Just came off the alignment rack!
I love this car. You picked the perfect look for it.
FIAT=Fix It Again Tony!!!...love the channel....NJ
I've missed this car. The level of excitement as you stomped the gas at the end has me fired up for more.
Can't wait to see that beast on track!
Can't wait to drive it! Thanks for watching!
Congratulations dude,she's gunna be a ripper now.watching from Perth Australia 🇦🇺
Love how this car looks!
The struggle of modifying cars is knowing that this pretty much never workout as planned. Good job on coming back to your dream build and working out the little details.
People don’t know how much work and dedication it takes to get to a finished product that you can finally enjoy and have fun.
Love this channel.
Heads and cam, heads and cam, heads and cam. She needs at least a lumpy cam. Old cars need that heart beat.
Always wanted to see the cuda do a full rip! Thats awesome bro.
My Friday night just got better!!
Appreciate it!
Hell yeah been waiting to see this thing eat for so long
You and me both, brother.
I love this channel. I love these builds. This channel is the definition of hot roding 💯🔥💪🏼
I remember watching the Cuda on HRG. I particularly remember watching it on the drift track. There was a slow motion shot of it coming out of the corner and the right rear quarter panel was jiggling like Jello. I often wondered if I was the only one who saw that.
I remember too. As with all sema builds, you don't want to look too close 🤫 lol
Those guys at pheonix build some sick stuff. in good hands. I hope to see this thing in person sometime.
Gotta say, this new suspension got me fall in love the car's whole silhouette all over again. There's just something about a vintage body on a drift stance that ticks my boxes, tho i'm sure it can get a bit lower for that hella nasty look.
Love the pizza box spray paint masking 😂
love the sound gen 3 hemis make.
I’m so disappointed that I didn’t get any tire smoke in this episode but I did get Arugula on a pizza so you’re forgiven. Much love Brother. Keep kicking ass. Do a drag and drive soon!
Always wondered why I didn’t see you enjoying this car.
Glad your getting around to fixing it. Love the way it looks👍
Dude I watched this video just 🙏 that the Cuda would finally be road worthy..the last 2 mins I had a huge smile on my face...so awesome to see and even better to hear that hemi scream!!!
