Nice 'cuda Helmut! Is that an original luggage rack car? Love the color.

Thanks! Yes its all original - has code M91 on the fender tag for Luggage Rack Deck Lid.

helmut, my wife would shoooooot me if I bought your cool car, a) because I promised her I would sell the black cuda when I bought the L78 camaro (2 yrs have passed), b) I have another 71 cuda incorrectly painted now in that green color (which is supposed to be curious yellow with white billboards and white interior). I would be hanging from a tree if that 70 was sitting in the garage. She has told me I don't 'need' 2 71 cudas and the orders have come down from above (she did say I need a nice BIG garage..so full steam ahead there). Nice car though. I am an ebody nutt, especially a 340 fan. It will be sad for some of us that sell ebodies as I predict 2-5 yrs from now they come back up. I think they are being over punished in the market, they only made 5k cudas in all of 71 as example, whereas looking at my 69 camaro, they made that many L78s alone. The production for mopars is really low on the cool models when compared to gm and ford models. don't give that 70 away, although you have a currency advantage that is hard to beat.

Boy what a tempting car to make a Mopar jump..

Yeah Bob, that Canadian currency can work for me if I sell but usually works against me if I buy. I'm in the same boat with my wife... but then again, I'm still alive! Maybe with that new BIG garage you'll have room to hide a car or two. Keep in touch, eh.

well kinda (ok did) get duped a bit by the guy showing up to see how an original car was done (he has a 70 cuda) on a rack being restored by himself, and he said if he could have this on the road in a few months he would buy it. I told him earlier this car would take a while for a guy to do on his own (months easily) and it must have went in one ear and out another. never the less he convinced me that a plasma cutter could do wonders around the wheel wells and how a novice with training can make precise cuts (and is sending me some of his dvds) if I keep it. It could be fun after I get a garage vs having cars stored in all the wrong places. If someone wants it before I get it out of storage and running its still avail.
