Yes, this is a real-deal mighty 1970 Plymouth 'Cuda AAR. That means
rarity, power, and Mopar beauty all come together in the most
desirable six-pack package around. So take a look at all the
details, but don't admire for too long, or this one might be
gone.
If you're a Plymouth person, the color is In-Violet; if you're a
Dodge person, it's Plum Crazy; and if you're a Mopar fan, you're
just excited to see this coupe expertly re-finished in its
factory-correct FC7 High Impact color. But a real-deal AAR like
this also has something more going for it than just the purple.
It's built to be a real race machine in the Trans-Am series, and so
the hood is finished in matte black to reduce glare. And because
the Mopar guys were always the best at mixing their function with
flare, the grille, special spoiler, and unique strobe full length
stripe all got the blacked-out treatment, too. These were truly
mean machines straight from the factory with the exclusive
lightweight fiberglass hood with functional scoop, hood pins, and
the exhaust tips poking out just ahead of the rear wheels. And
everyone loves the exclusive badging that came on Dan Gurney's All
American Racers (AAR). So with this much appeal it's amazing they
only produced around 2,724 examples for 1970 - it's first and only
year in production.
Inside the black vinyl interior nicely coordinates with the
exterior accents, and it also is an instant reminder of this
'Cuda's performance spirit. The moment you slip into the high-back
bucket seat, you realize just how much the Plymouth people wanted
to surround the driver. This is a center console car with the gear
selector perfectly molded into the contoured setup. Plus, flanking
the sporty three-spoke steering wheel are your controls for
heat/defrost and original-style AM radio. In fact, The in the
trunk! But you really want this because it's a performance machine.
And you're reminded of that the moment you look at Mopar's full
round Rallye gauge package with the important tach prominently
centered with the steering wheel.
When you open the hood, the most important part of the AAR cars is
instantly staring straight back at you. The big, bold orange air
topper announces the triple set of dual carburetors that make up
the powerful six-pack. And this presentation looks correct right
down to the rubber diaphragm that seals this big air intake to the
hood scoop. Beneath that is the mighty 340 cubic-inch V8 looking
just as bold in the correct orange. In fact, everything looks
correct and fresh in the engine bay, right down to the radiator
shroud. So you know there was a nice investment under the hood. And
as you look at the undercarriage photos, the cleanliness of this
one tells you that all the right investments have been made in this
special 'Cuda. While you're looking down there, you'll also spot
great features like the front disc brakes and sway bars front &
rear. Add in the three-speed automatic transmission, power
steering, and BF Goodrich T/As, and you've got a stellar classic
that's easy to show off everywhere.
An ultra-rare and desirable 'Cuda AAR that has been given all the
right investments to keep it looking and running exceptionally. You
already know how special this one is, so you also know how quickly
you need to move to take it home. Call today!!!
