1971 Plymouth Barracuda Cuda Convertible 383 Fully & Freshly Restored Price Drop

Available for the first time in two decades, here's a rare opportunity to actually own this Cuda convertible. If you are an E-body guy, now is your chance. Most of the time, cars like this are exchanged behind the scenes with private sales between collectors. A total of three big block options were available in 1971. This 383, the optional 440-6 pack and the Mopar legend, the 426 Hemi. As we all know, the Hemi equipped convertibles are selling for millions of dollars today!

You will see in the pictures, this is a beautifully restored car from nut to bolt, top to bottom, and bumper to bumper. The car underwent a no expenses spared seven-year restoration project that was completed in June of 2015 and ranks amongst the best in existence. This car looks like it just rolled off the assembly line when new (or better). Only the most trusted vendors, suppliers and many NOS parts were used in the build. The car only has 30 miles on it since completion and it is ready to be debuted and welcomed for the first time at any car show or event. To repeat, this is a fully restored non-original motor Cuda Convertible. The correct 383 motor with trans. has been sourced and installed and price adjusted accordingly.

When purchased by the current owner, the car was missing the original motor and transmission. Every effort was painstakingly made to use a dated coded replacement motor and transmission. All options have been restored and accounted for per the fender tags. A few liberties were taken to add the rubber bumpers, rim blow steering wheel and internal engine modification enhancements. This particular car is loaded with many rare and desirable options. In fact, only less than 10% Cuda convertible production run cars received this many options. It's a true "two fender tag" car which includes factory air conditioning, billboard callouts, road lamps, rallye dash, power brakes, power steering, power top, etc.

The car was purchased from Arizona and had a California title prior to 1996. The history search is ongoing. Documentation shows the original VIN tag on dash, clear Tennessee title in hand, factory body number on the cowl, reproduction door tag, reproduction fender tags made from the originals before the originals were unfortunately lost at a body shop at onset of initial restoration attempt in the late 90's, no broadcast sheets were found during this restoration, no number on the radiator support. The car is registered in the 1970-71 Plymouth and Dodge E-Body Convertible Registry through Ola Nilsson. Full restoration documentation, pictures and receipts from rotisserie restoration available to validate workmanship, means and methods. A car of this rarity is only deserving of this much attention to detail. No disappointments.
