1970 Plymouth AAR Cuda For Sale
This 1970 Plymouth AAR 'Cuda is a numbers-matching example that's
been the recipient of a high-level restoration, refinished in its
original High-Impact Lime Light Green over a black interior. It
retains its original 340 Six Pack V8, backed by a 4-speed manual
transmission, which is exactly the drivetrain combination
enthusiasts chase on these Trans-Am-homologation cars.
A few thoughtful updates have been made for drivability, including
Dakota Digital gauges, and the original factory gauge cluster is
included with the sale for the next caretaker who wants everything
presented exactly as delivered. The car has also been inspected by
Dave Wise and is documented in the Chrysler Registry, adding
meaningful third-party verification to a model that's often
discussed as much as it's driven.
Documentation is a strong point here. This AAR 'Cuda comes with the
original build sheet, along with title copies showing the chain of
ownership from new - the kind of provenance that matters when
you're looking at a limited-production, historically significant
E-body.
The AAR story is part of what makes these cars more than just
another muscle-era 'Cuda. In the late 1960s, SCCA's Trans-Am series
pushed manufacturers into building road-race-inspired versions of
their pony cars, and by 1970 the competition was in what many
consider its golden era - with Ford running the Boss 302, Chevrolet
countering with the Camaro Z/28, and Plymouth entering the fight
with the AAR 'Cuda. AAR was a nod to All American Racers, the team
founded by Dan Gurney, and the cars carried distinctive,
purpose-built details that separated them from standard 'Cudas -
most notably the strobe stripe with the AAR logo and the functional
fiberglass forced-air induction hood. Underhood, Plymouth paired
the AAR with a 340ci V8 topped by the famous Six Pack induction -
an attention-grabbing setup that helped define the model's identity
then and still does today.
For the buyer who wants a properly restored, numbers-matching AAR
with real documentation behind it, this one checks the boxes that
count: correct colors, the right engine, a 4-speed, registry
recognition, and paperwork that supports the car's story.
