The Hemi Cuda may very well sit at the top of the muscle car food chain and this stunning 1973 Plymouth Hemi Cuda tribute delivers in every way that matters: loads of power from a 528 cubic inch Hemi V8and#44; a 5-speed manual gearboxand#44; gorgeous paintand#44; and an updated interior. Quite honestlyand#44; they just dont come much nicer than this. This is one of those cars that really needs a personal visit before you truly understand how nice it isand#44; and if youre buying sight-unseenand#44; please rest assured that this one is even better than it appears in photos. Gorgeous Sublime Green isnt this cars original colorand#44; of courseand#44; but few finishes look better on the venerable E-body and when its executed to this leveland#44; exactly nobody is going to complain. Experts will note that a unique 71 nose has been seamlessly grafted onto the 73 bodyworkand#44; further enhancing the illusion. The sheetmetal is laser straight and you can see how good the panel alignment is in the photosand#44; and with the HEMI billboards on the quartersand#44; you know it had to be right. The Shaker hood looks cool and the Go-Wing out back should have been standard equipmentand#44; because Cudas look naked without them. Hood pinsand#44; fog lampsand#44; and proper Cuda badges were all reinstalled once the paint was dry and a color-matched Endura-Flex front bumper is the right choice. This is just an awesome-looking car in every way. At first glanceand#44; the interior looks stockand#44; but once youre behind the wheel youll realize that those modern bucket seats are wrapped in black leatherand#44; not vinyland#44; and the factory Tuff Wheel got its own set of hidesand#44; too. New carpetsand#44; fresh door panelsand#44; and a pistol-grip shifter all give the car a correct lookand#44; with only the monster tachometer on the column giving away the performance under the hood. A JVC AM/FM/CD stereo system lives in the original radios slot in the dashand#44; and powers big 6x9 speakers on the rear package tray. Theres also A/Cand#44; which uses the factory vents for a clean look and performance is impressive thanks to modern hardware working behind the scenes. The trunk is quite clean and tidy with a custom enclosure for the subwoofers still leaving plenty of room for your gear. The engine is a snarling Keith Black 528 cubic inch HEMI V8 with an aluminum blockand#44; and if youve been longing for a Cuda that can accelerate like a rocketand#44; this one fits the bill. With a long list of modificationsand#44; it delivers the neck-snapping performance for which the Hemi was justifiably famous... and then some! The engine was built for combat and features Keith Black pistonsand#44; a lumpy camand#44; and a long list of upgrades that add up to 646 horsepower at 6100 RPM. Yeahand#44; its nasty. With the curb weight of a small block it handles exceptionally well and it cackles and snarls thanks to ceramic-coated long-tube headers and a custom 3-inch dual exhaust system. And while youre looking around under thereand#44; check out the floorsand#44; which are as beautifully finished as the bodyworkand#44; making it look highly detailed. The 5-speed transmission makes the 528 easy to live with on the highway and powers a Dana 60 rear end. Gorgeous 15-inch aluminum wheels have a vintage drag race look and carry modern 235/70/15 front and 275/60/15 rear BFGoodrich T/A radials. This is an extremely impressive car in every possible way and comes with receipts and a dyno sheet to back up the performance claims. This is a no-compromises Cuda thats ready to drive and enjoy.
