I snapped this the other day and just remembered to post it . I'll take a few more in a few days . The car is ALMOST ready . Just finishing up the wiring and gunna take it into the muffler shop and slap an exhaust on it . It's a 1969 Cuda with a 340 in it . Painted a dark cherry with black interior . This car SHINES in the sun , the picture doesnt do it much justice .

I really miss that Nova . God it pulled like a MOFO . You can see the tires lifting off the ground in the 2nd pic . Really pushed you back into your seat . Too hard on the pocket book though , especially at 7 miles to the gallon . lol

Here's a pic of my buddy's Cuda thats been "reworked" a bit. Everything is original except for the drivetrain (motor/tranny work - original 440 though). Estimated output is around 400hp @ rear wheels. I can tell you, she screams!

This picture was taken at a campsite we stayed at for the Mopar Nats 2 years ago.

Born-to-race I might be interested in it . Does it have a motor and tranny? If so what size ?? Is the frame in good shape or does it need to be boxed?? How are the quarter panels ?? Post pictures if you have any . Very Interested . The Cuda is almost done so time to find a new project . Thanks,

Awsome, the Cuda is a sweet car! I have seen a few around, but not that nice looking!

The bumpers would have needed to be re-chromed so we just decided that it would make it look different painted flat black . We also painted the hood flat black. Next is to finish the interior ( nothing much to do) and slap on a nice set of tires and polish the rims a little more and it's ready for the road .

Here's something to drool on... This car will make any Cuda (Mopar) lover cream their pants on the spot.

IRRC, this may be the only car of its kind in the US. White on white, convertible with a Hemi.

1970 Hemi Cuda Convertible with 19,000 miles on the clock...ALL original.

Original Window Sticker...take note of the costs for each option, including the base car price.

Now look at what she is worth today. :eek2: Lets just say, I took a step back after I saw the appraisal price!!!


This could be the nicest Hemi Cuda you'll ever see....

NOTE: Sorry about the resolution, I resized them and they are no where near as clear as the original 1024x768 photo's. The price listed is correct... $239,000!!!

LMAO! Lets just say I got suckered into going to the Mopar Nationals 2 years ago with my buddy that has that red Cuda I posted. After that weekend, I had a new found appreciation for the Mopar muscle cars.

Dont get me wrong, I love VW/Audi's, but I also have quite a few other cars I wouldnt mind owning! :D


I think I went through 2 (32meg) memory cards at this car show....if anyone has any requests, I'm sure I might have a picture... LOL!

I can easily see that...take these cars to the auction and who knows who is going to bid on them. All it takes is a bidding war between two extremely wealthy men to jack the price WAY up.

It has a 6cyl. motor with a 3-on-the-tree tranny. The frames ok and the quaters will need work.

I have a pic but I can't resize it. :(

that red cuda is freakin' sick. I love the Nova with flames too. Sick rides. I want my Black GTO, though on some fatty rears and sick supercharged.

Heres a pic of our Nova that we had , then the 1969 GTO that we owned before the Nova , and my uncles 1968 Camero . All were nice rides . The GTO won the best burnout at the comp that year .
