Description1970 Plymouth 'Cuda 6.1L HEMI Pro-Touring ConvertibleThe Plymouth Barracuda was the first pony car, debuting two weeks before the Ford Mustang. It was quickly eclipsed by the Mustang and the Camaro/Firebird due, but would make a name for itself in 1970 when it was available with an engine its competition could only dream of, the Hemi.Plymouth finally got the performance angle right for 1970, and they went full force into it. The Barracuda was moved over to the E-body platform, which it shared with the new Dodge Challenger. The Barracuda rode on a two inch shorter wheelbase than the similar Dodge Challenger, even though its overall body dimensions were the same.The performance models were called Cudas and featured five different V8s, the 340, 383, 440, 440+6, and the almighty 426 Hemi. The 440s and the Hemi cars received a special high performance suspension to put all that power to the road. Standard Barracudas came with a flat hood, while Cudas came with standard dual non-functional hood scoops. Optional on all Cudas (and standard on Hemis) was a very functional shaker scoop, so named because it attached directly to the engine, and poked up through a hole in the hood and thus shaked whenever the engine did!For the adamant and hardcore classic car enthusiast who only dreams of owning a head-to-toe fully restored classic Mopar thats packing one hell of a modern drivetrain and suspension, we proudly present to you, the 70 HEMI Cuda. This is it, ladies and gentlemen, this is truly the best of the best in every which way. This absolutely stunning Cuda is the paragon of the ultimate modern muscle car. From engineering to execution, every nut, bolt, and piece of equipment on this car is the epitome of what a professionally restored car is like.Read Full Description
