Vehicle Description
With its dual-quad Hemi V8, this 1970 Plymouth 'Cuda was built to
do only one thing - go fast! Nowhere on this car does it try to
hide its speedy intentions, which means everyone will hide from you
on the street and the strip. In fact, as you look through the whole
package, you'll find a fresh build where there was over $140k
invested within the last few years to help create the ultimate
expression of Mopar muscle.
We could start by going into how just owning a 1970 'Cuda is a
badge of honor. This was the debut year of a now-iconic body style,
and Mopars always had low production numbers. But that's not why
you want this coupe. Instead, this is a bold pro street statement
that knows how to grab all the attention. After all, we're not sure
if people are first going to hear the thunder of the exhaust or see
the radiance of the In-Violet paint. This legendary High Impact
color was a part of a $25,000 in 2018 that was just for the paint
and body alone. This finish loves to highlight just how
comprehensive the whole restoration was by the way the light rolls
evenly across the tight-fitting body panels. But the six-figure
investment in this coupe was now just about the award-worthy shine.
The blackout grille, dual-scoop hood, Hemi hockey stick callouts,
and rear spoiler help showcase a speedy style. And the size/stance
that comes from those uber-wide rear wheels let you know this one
can spend Saturday night at the dragstrip before you take it to the
Sunday morning car show.
The interior shows off more of the build's thoughtful investments.
The custom roll cage was a $2,600 investment. It is in the same
purple to match the exterior, and it does a comprehensive job of
adding safety and strength without intruding on your ability to get
inside. Procar high-back bucket seats, Simpson racing harnesses,
and a tubbed rear are all part of the feeling that this 'Cuda wants
to get down to speedy business. But we also like the level of
comfort they kept in this build. Full carpeting, nice door panels,
and a smooth dash make this feel like far more than a race car. And
it has a nice driver-oriented style with the contoured center
console, Mopar Tuff sports steering wheel, and the classic readouts
swapped for a full digital setup.
We know you've been waiting for all those amazing details about
what's under the hood, and we can tell you it's even better than
you imagined. After all, this was built to not only be powerful,
but so you can proudly show it off, too. The engine bay is smooth,
clean, and painted the exterior-matching bold purple. And the
overall tidiness is award-worthy. At the heart is a fresh 426
cubic-inch Hemi V8 that was a $20k investment all on its own. This
is believed to be a fully fortified build that includes Eagle rods,
Arias pistons, Comp Cams camshaft, Indy roller rockers, and
aluminum heads. It inhales deeply with dual Edelbrock AVS 2
four-barrel carburetors atop an Edelbrock airgap aluminum intake.
And it exhales with serious power and authority as Hemi headers
feed the dual exhaust. And while this one already has a show-worthy
presentation, you can upgrade it whenever you want. That's because
a bug-catcher air grabber and the hood it sticks out of both come
with the sale, too! Also, make sure to take plenty of extra time
looking at the undercharge photos. All those hardy components have
a bright style that reminds you how fresh this is over every inch.
There you'll start to see how the rear end was more than just
tubbed. There was over $11k spent on a custom chassis fabrication
to fit the four-link rear and Currie 9-inch rear. And features like
the three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and
four-wheel disc brakes with drilled & slotted rotors are there to
remind you that a pro street machine also is supposed to be a solid
cruiser when you want it.
We have restoration photos and a comprehensive receipt file
totaling over $140,000 in investments in this Plymouth - so call us
for the full details. And after you look over this whole car, you
can understand how it was money well spent. This is the ultimate
mix of a vintage coupe and a street-dominating custom. So if you're
looking to be the king of Mopars, call today!
