1971 Plymouth Cuda 440-6 For Sale - Factory "V" Code, Numbers
Matching 440-6 Pack LMC is very proud to offer for sale this 1971
Plymouth Cuda 440-6. With stiff competition from the Mustang and
Camaro's of the 1960's, Chrysler was paying attention to the
rapidly expanding youthful compact car market. Their intermediate
Dodge Charger and Plymouth Road Runner models were reasonably
successful, but the small Valiant-based Plymouth Barracuda,
introduced before the Mustang in 1964, had never made a big splash.
The engineers decided to both simplify the Barracuda for its third
generation, to be introduced in 1969 as a 1970 model, and to equip
it with everything it would need to guarantee success on the street
and on the drag strip. The AAR was discontinued for 1971, but the
other 'Cuda variants were carried over with a splash of
fish-inspired style; the single headlamps, recessed horizontal
grille and integrated signals lights were replaced by quad
headlamps flanking a six-"gill" grille and under-bumper signal
lights. The 71 Cuda's also sported four simulated front fender
vents, and separate-element tail lamps replaced the one-piece
units. Redesigned side stripes included the famous "billboard"
units with integrated engine callouts. This stunning example has
had a full rotisserie restoration and finished in code FE5 Rally
red with the famous mat black billboard announcing its incredible
440 - 6 pack engine breathing through the legendary Shaker hood.
This car has all the right stuff for the Cuda collector with
impressive attention to detail top to bottom. The numbers matching
engine is mated to the numbers matching 727 transmission with Sure
Grip rear differential and dual exhaust. The equipment list
includes Power steering and power brakes and optional bumper
mounted fog lights. The incredible black leather interior features
the tasteful Cuda wood grained steering wheel with matching wood
grain instrument panel and shifter console. To further compliment
the stunning lines of this Cuda it has rear window slats and rear
spoiler in matte black. This impressive package rolls on the trade
mark Plymouth Rally rims with period correct Polyglas tires. If
you're looking for an exceptional Cuda to drive and enjoy, don't
miss your chance to buy this one. Additional Details: 1971 PLYMOUTH
