For Sale at Auction: 1971 Plymouth Cuda in Scottsdale, Arizona

This 1971 Plymouth 'Cuda is powered by its original 440ci engine with 6-barrel carburetion, and its original 4-speed transmission. It is equipped with a Dana 60 rear end with 4.10:1 gears. Finished in Plum Crazy Purple over a black interior with bucket seats and a console-mounted pistol-grip shifter. The year 1971 was the last for the big-block high-compression engines in Chrysler-Plymouths. Sales were on a downward slide due to both insurance rates and gas prices on their way up. Safety concerns and emissions regulations were bringing the muscle-car era to an end, but what a final year for 440ci Six-Pack and Hi-Impact colors like In Violet, which were popular on the sporty pony cars. The unique "cheese grater" four-headlight grille and fender gills made for a one-year-only appearance on the 'Cuda. This car is equipped the mandatory power front disc brakes. This 440-6 'Cuda has been part of a collection since 2012.
