About “The Cuda”
This is my latest addition to my collection.I got this car from the original owner who is the father of good friend of mine.I can remember when he brought it home from the dealer.I was one of the first to ride in it !
I was surprised when I got the call telling me the car was available.The son said that his father was letting in go to generate money for his company.I had to sell two of my other cars to make this possible but I feel it was worth it.He wants to get it back if I ever sell.
The car is all original and in overall great condition.It has just over 38K on it and runs great.It is not a perfect show car but rather a well preserved piece of history.With the 426 Hemi ,4 speed and Dana rear it is a car that I hope to have for a long time !!
