Vehicle Description
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 package around. It's even the numbers-matching V8 with
Six Pack on top! 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 Lemon Twist; if you're a
Dodge person, it's Top Banana; and if you're a Mopar fan, you're
just excited to see this coupe expertly re-finished in its
factory-correct FY1 High Impact color. But a real-deal AAR like
this also has something more going for it than just the vibrant
paint. 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 flair, 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 - its
first and only year in production. And this kind of rarity is
exactly why this example was given such a thorough restoration. The
panels are exceptionally crisp, and the details are there, right
down to the Goodyear PolyGlas GT tires. So you may never again find
another example that looks as day one fresh as this one.
The black vinyl interior nicely coordinates with the exterior
accents, and has a fresh and detailed feeling of a strong
investment in quality. 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. 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.
Under the hood is Mopar's mighty 340 cubic-inch V8. This is the
numbers-matching unit, and the full restoration mean it was
professionally rebuilt by a proper speed shop. And we know you
instantly noticed the big, bold orange air topper. It announces the
upgrade to the triple set of dual carburetors that make up the
powerful Six-Pack. This total 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, you can really tell they took
the time getting this whole engine bay ready to be shown off. 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 stout A727 three-speed automatic transmission,
power brakes, and power steering, and you've got a stellar classic
that's easy to show off everywhere.
The sale comes complete with the owner's manual and a large record
of build receipts. This is 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.
