BODYWORK/TRIM

Motoring through life as a solid slice of Americana this Plymouth is an authentic BS Cuda thats always reflected silky Black Velvet pigment. The cars restoration work conducted as needed has included a new trunk pan new quarters and carefully patched floor pans. As you already know those aligned panels feature smooth and glossy 2-stage thats been accented with brilliant 440 billboards. And today this coupe rolls as striking Detroit muscle that mixes classic Chrysler design with storied MoPar performance.

Unlike most dressed and decaled cars which tend to throw good taste out the window this awesome E-Body seamlessly balances a cool personality with flashy good looks. At the front of its broad shouldered profile a stainless-trimmed 1971-exclusive grille hangs four halogen headlights above a bright bumper familiar driving lamps and sculpted parking lights. At the top of that grille a cuda 440-6 branded shaker bridges the gap between requisite stainless lanyards a small PLYMOUTH script and chip-free glass thats balanced between polished trim and old school louvers. At the sides of that hood satin door handles and stylish fender gills ride between bright wheel frames dent-free rocker trim and Black Velvet sport mirrors. And at the back of the car a Satin Black valence hangs a cool cuda by PLYMOUTH emblem between a prominent spoiler stylized taillights a second chrome bumper and polished stainless exhaust tips.

ENGINE

This authentic Cuda was originally powered by Chryslers stalwart 383. While that mill was certainly suitable motivation upgrading the car to 440 6 BBL power seemed logical progression. Pull the pins and youll find a storied 440 cubic inch RB block that provides plenty of spirited performance. The mean mills energy mixture is supplied by familiar Holley carburetors which breathe through a familiar matte-finished shaker. Below those carbs a Hemi Orange block wears stamped steel valve covers and previously restored exhaust manifolds. The big engines fires are lit by quality Taylor Sprio-Pro cables and a proven points distributor. And cooling is provided by a beefy Chrysler radiator which is augmented with authentic squeeze clamps and a combination of pliable Gates and MoPar hoses. Take a second to refocus your eyes on the clean engine bay and youll find a familiar red cap battery an appropriate washer tank and a fresh master cylinder. And the entire set up from its fenders to its firewall mirrors the same TX9 black as the cars glossy exterior panels.
