Vehicle Description
This is a real Cuda with original fender tag. Same owner since
1986, 32 years! That's all good but what's really exciting is that
was upgraded to a 440 6-pack motor, painted plum crazy purple and
it underwent a meticulous 10 year rotisserie restoration. Only
1,137 miles since finished. A pile of receipts and a ton of
pictures are available documenting the restoration.

straight, fits tight, no bubbles, cracks or damage. Doors shut like
new. The Plum Crazy paint is laid out evenly, cleared and polished
like glass. Jambs have slick paint. Upfront the grill is completely
restored- the bezels, argent silver paint and the chrome bumper
look new. Has the sport hood, chrome sport mirrors and hockey stick
stripe with the 440 designation. In back the tail panel is
detailed- satin black finish, lenses and bumper look new.

rally gauge cluster for instrumentation and they're all working
