The G- Force Cuda has been under plans for a couple of years. This November it came to life at the 2005 SEMA Show. It was unveiled in Primedia's Booth and hosted by celebrity image Bill Goldberg. Multiple concepts were developed by Chris Ito throughout its development. Hundreds of body modifications were manipulated by the team of craftsman at Johnson's Hot Rod Shop. A lot of time and efforts went into the rear valance area of the G-Force Cuda. This is important since this would be the view the Cuda would primarily have fling by at 200 mph. The hood created challenges for the team.
The look while completely modern has the retro look of the early 70's Mopars. It houses a EFI 572 cubic inch all aluminum Hemi. It has a hand fabricated intake manifold mounting dual throttle bodies and NOS injection. The brushed aluminum and pewter accents contrast with the light weight carbon fiber close out panels. The natural finishes provide a blend of beauty and a sense of purpose and function. The cut outs in the fenders and hood gave them the ability to run 19" wheels custom made from Colorado Custom. The chassis is a purpose built platform with speed and handling set for priorities. From the milled engine plates to the 6 speed transaxle carrier. The chassis is a completely hand fabricated work of art and science. Alan spent countless hours creating the one off set of headers that gently flow from the 2.25" primaries to the 3.5" exhaust system mounted within the frame rails for clearance. The interior follows the theme from the exterior. A beautiful blend of highly polished carbon fiber brushed aluminum and graphite leather surface provides the driver with the serious feel of speed with a blend of high end luxury. The one off gauge design is finished with a silver and charcoal face with brushed aluminum bezels. This provides the driver central monitoring for critical engine functions such as RPM, oil pressure and temperature. The one off Colorado Custom wheels are true pin drive knock offs measuring 20" x 12" on the rear and 19" x 10" on the front. These super big hoops are required to cover the huge super trick Red Devil 16" titanium rotors. The G - Force Cuda is truly a modern interpretation of the one year only billboard HEMI graphic along with its double headlight grille. It's a super car to set and take in all its subtle modifications. We welcome you to come by and take it in at the various events it will be at throughout the year. http://www.johnsonshotrodshop.com/g_force_cuda.htm lots more picts: http://www.lateral-g.net/johnsoncuda/ ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Damn sexy but that cheap looking steering wheel has to go. Same with that shift knob, although creative it's just...meh. I'd hate to use something like that to shift :|

Agreed. The size of the wheels and how they're tucked up so much into the wells really ruins the look. It looks stupid like this.

The old school 'Cuda with a Viper V10.
The first one I saw was at least 5 years ago. There's a company down in FL(?) that specializes in putting Viper engines in old Dodge muscle cars. |

That looks hawt, cept I really hate the drag racing motif of the interior, not that cudas could really do anything else anyway though.

i registered to this site to make this one post and be gone like i was never here. somebody said there is a badder cuda being built with a viper engine. first there will never be another cuda as bad as this one as long as people walk the face of the earth. exspecially not one with a viper engine. Phix you saying this car looks stupid your an idiot, it might be what you think but i think you need to go get your eyes checked, what do u want the car to be 15 inches off the ground so the wheels aren't tucked into the wheelwell's. seeing there is a porshce at the top of everypag means your guys probably have no knowledge of street machines. do not reply to this until tht orange and black hemi is done thats quote "badder" than this one. "badder" meaning uglier or slower or a monster truck with the wheels not tucked into the wheelwells. you must be one of those guy's with the mutangs with the square wheel well's and the tires that stick out 4 inches past the end of the body.
from looking at everbody's avatar's i think you guys are all RICERS |

I have a fucking opinion of the car and you come here and tell us all we're wrong? What the fuck. So basically unless we fucking worship this piece of ugly ass shit....

That's right, I bet you think we all drive farty can Civics and Accords and drive automatics and we pop it in neutral so we can roll back like a manual. Jesus Christ, get the fuck out and grow an open mind. I'm so fucking happy that you cosnider a basket of potatoes to be rice. -------------------- HNNNNNNNGH

That orange Cuda is pure sex. Perfect combo of old school and modern design.
And 'uguysrwrong'.. the vast majority of us here could not possibly be described as "ricers." You need to chill out and stop jumping to conclusions. |

I think it's alright, but it looks a bit weird being with that suspension setup.
And what's with the bump...also you think he had looked that far back in the topics, he would've gained better general knowledge of us, rather then us being a bunch of 'ricers'... -------------------- <a href="http://gemballa.com/Modelle/index_e.html" target="_blank">Gemballa's Porsches</a>, Simply the Best!
