Wayne from PEI Canada with a full walk-through of his 1970 Plymouth Cuda. Many hours have been put into this car to make it this nice. If you are looking for a future build contact him on facebook at Down East Auto Sales.
this is not a real AAR cuda. The AAR cuda and Challenger T/A had the exhaust pipes come out from the side not the tail end and had a 340 v8 with the 6 pack not a 440 six pack. The one in the video is still a badass ride though.
@@ericochoa4271 I certainly agree with you. My comment referred mainly to the general appearance with the black hood and the striping style with AAR decal or T/A lettering. The side pipes absolutely add to the coolness.
Even as a kid, when it was new I thought this car was way better looking than mustang and Camero. Now I know more about everything and Cuda is still my favorite all these years later
I’m literally from Europe and I’m in love with this car. Plymouth Barracuda... I really like Superbird too. It’s so bad that there’s literally NO Plymouth’s here
I take possession of a 1970 Hemi Orange, 440 Cuda in two weeks and really enjoyed seeing this video. As soon as I heard you say "car" figured you were out east 😁
One of my older brothers had a '70 Cuda with a 440 supercommando with 4speed, nothing could beat it, well almost nothing, it was beaten won time my a '69 Z28 camaro with a little 302. But home 🏠 Cubs couldn't touch it!!
THE AAR CUDA STROBE stripe is the nicest decal kit of the 70s...i had an opportunity to by a b5 AARcuda delete car in 1983 but had no serious clue what it really was 1500..dollars....i was driving a 70 SE an put the AAR CUDA TRANS thats in this car floor shifter u see round slapstick an 14 to 1 steering box wholly crap it woke my challenger up.. the 727 AT an the factory dodge racing shift kit was el perfecto...2500 stall converter made it a nasty street racer..around stop sign 90 sdegree turn omg dog omg
They did. According to one of my Muscle Car books, it was just an aesthetic detail. But in fact, it didn't upgrade numbers, as the plumbing was more restrictive.
They did a nice rotisserie restoration on that car, but the rear valance on the drivers side needs to be attended to, its out of whack,, aside from that,, she's really nice!!
I heard dodge might bring back the Cuda. I hope they don't fuck up the design like how they disrespected the dodge dart. Smfh. This is the real beauty and the beast. Damn son!
That is a beautiful kerr ya got therr! (Sorry could not resist, I'm a Yinzer and get it all the time about my dialect) :) Absolutely amazing 'Cuda! LOVE IT!
Would have been cooler to see what it can do but I guess it's just a cool looking car to cruise in. Dodge has plans to do a remake of the Cuda similar to the challenger. But that could be 2030 b4 they come out. Hopefully if won't be a dammned electric car thanks to slo MO Joe & his followers....
still scratching my head why I didnt buy one of these when I was still a kid I did buy a 11 sec El Camino however but only because I was able to haul a 10 sec Suzuki. Mopars will remain forever my favorites. They will NEVER make a quicker faster engine to go Top Fuel/Funny Car racing ever. Hemi Power without the name of Mopar doesn't mean its not a Mopar
Pues a mi si me parecen geniales los autos con apariencia clásica, pero elementos modernos, es algo así como los Ford 1931 a los que les ponen un motor moderno, aire acondicionado, suspensiones modernas etc. o cuando ¨restauran¨ y preparan un Ford Mustang del 79, o un Plymouth Barracuda de 1970, etc. con elementos modernos, pero conservando la originalidad de sus hermosas líneas, con lo que si no puedo estar de acuerdo, es con ponerles un nefasto y ridículo motor eléctrico, matando por completo su esencia. Buen video, va mi like.
Isn't Chrysler Dodge Plymouth called a sure grip rear and a posi rear is a GM term ? And shouldn't have been called the sixth barrel instead of a six pack cuz six pack is a Dodge term and six barrels Plymouth? I was just wondering I'm not jealous or anything I do own a barracuda 1966 formula s. 4-speed 8 3/4 rear.
Its not really a 4bbl, it's a EFI throttle body with fuel injectors (throttle body injection) mounted on a 4bbl intake manifold. This appears to be a real AAR which came originally with a 6bbl induction system. In the video he explains that he wanted better fuel economy and less of the typical hassles associated with carburetors. He still runs an air cleaner lid system that looks correct for a 6bbl.
LOVELY, WANTY !!! $50,000 ??? ... I'm joking, I know it's worth about $350,000 and I'm from Ireland ✌️BUT.. If you want to donate it to me, I'll mind it for you until you come over.. 😂😂
It's a build tribute to an AAR. They didn't show the fender tag or you could tell what it was. But, it's got allot of the right parts. Magnum Opus sweet looking car no matter what.
It appears to be a 3 speed automatic, like they came stock. Some people put in 4 speed automatics, but I don't think so here -it looks like a stock transmission.
It appears to be a real 6bbl 340ci AAR Cuda. If you listen to the video, the owner wanted a fuel injection system for better economy and less hassles. Hopefully he still has the original induction system. AAR Cuda's didn't come with 440s, but you could option a 1970 Cuda with a 440 6bbl (V code) if you wanted to back then. Hope this information helps you.
