Vehicle Description
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to offer this1971 Plymouth Cuda
Convertible. This example is presented in the eye-catching and
highly desirable Curious Yellow, paint code GY3. Its bold exterior
is perfectly complemented by a white power operated soft top that
lowers at the press of a button, allowing you to fully experience
the open air thrill these E Body Mopars can provide. The color
keyed grille, Shaker hood, and iconic Gull Wing spoiler all play
into the legendary image of these vintage muscle cars, offering a
visual statement that ensures no one mistakes this automobile for
anything but a piece of American automotive history. Driving the
Cuda on its original style Rallye wheels wrapped in BFGoodrich
Radial T/A tires provides both era correct authenticity and
exceptional handling characteristics that keep it firmly planted on
the pavement.
The Cuda name is revered by collectors and enthusiasts for its
striking combination of performance, style, and rarity. In 1971,
Plymouth produced very few Cuda convertibles, and the few that
remain today are among the most sought after muscle cars on the
planet. The Cuda was born in an era when big block engines, vivid
paint options, and aggressive body lines defined the muscle car
genre. Now representing the pinnacle of Mopar collectibility, these
cars are more than just automobiles; they are cultural icons. The
addition of road lights, often considered a premium option, gives
the car an even more distinct presence and harkens back to a time
when such features were both functional and a sign of
exclusivity.
Under the hood you will find a professionally installed 426 cubic
inch V8 crate motor paired with a smooth shifting five speed manual
transmission. Your hands will rest on a Hurst Pistol Grip shifter,
an iconic piece of Mopar performance history that ensures precise
gear changes and an unmatched sense of driver engagement. The white
leather interior, enhanced by Rallye gauges and a Rim Blow steering
wheel, creates an environment that is both luxurious and
performance oriented. The AM/FM/Cassette radio adds a touch of
period correct entertainment while power steering and front power
brakes contribute to confident road manners and daily
drivability.
Although this car now boasts a powerplant and drivetrain far more
potent than stock, it began life with a 318 cubic inch V8,
automatic transmission, and black interior. Through thoughtful
upgrades, it has evolved into a show quality example that captures
the essence of the original but offers the enhanced performance,
comfort, and style that discerning collectors value. Such tasteful
modifications have only increased the Cuda's prestige, making it a
machine that stands proudly among the greats in the world of
vintage American muscle. Please call or email with any questions or
