Barn Find Hemi 'cuda - 10/06/10 02:47 AM

A friend of mine just got this cuda, has been sitting in a shed since early 80's and needs going through, just some surface rust here and there, we hope to save the original paint or most of it. Basic one eye dash, no hockey stripe, no console 4spd, go fast car. It belonged to his uncle who has owned it since 1971. What a score, there cant be many unrestored hemicudas left.

That's pretty cool. In the one photo showing the front driverside fender, it looks like it has a black stripe or body side molding. What is it?

It has a blk double pinstripe spaced about an inch apart, we were wondering if dealer installed, it also has a cool back in the day spring antenna, other than that its unmodified.

The body side molding on the 70 cudas had a pin stripe that wrapped around it like that. Looks like the side molding was taken off. It was just a stick on, not riveted on like the Challenger side molding.

That's good to know that the side molding was stick on. I assumed it was like the challenger.

Really cool car! I would love to see pics of it outside!

Man, what a score! That sure doesn't happen very often anymore. Talk about a cool car. The only things to bring attention to it are the shaker and the color. More pics! More pics! More pics!

I would say, don't restore it, just give it a light and careful cleaning.

Ryan, I'm surprised you didn't mention the one owner 27,000 mile 1970 Hemi Cuda we saw this past weekend...

Hi Ryan, Unreal is what I thought too when I first saw the car. I would even consider giving up my V24 Duster for this cuda, well maybe

I'll take more pics next time I'm over there, I remember the interior looked very good, the dash pad is perfect, the rear seat has never been out of the car so we're hoping for a correct sheet if the mice didnt beat us to it.

Re: Barn Find Hemi 'cuda - 10/08/10 06:21 PM

Cool, cant wait to see some more of this car. I'm glad he's going to try and save most of the paint I'd do the same. Speaking of v24 dusters and survivors

You may find four or five sheets, so do not limit your search to just the back seat. If you find any for other cars in either bucket seat back please let me know?

Now that truely is a score,they're still out there it's just a matter of convincing the owner that he really needs to do something with it or sell it to someone who will resurect it!

All I can say is unreal; and more, more, more.
I need to see more of that green beast.
That is a great to know they are still out there.
Thanks for posting.

Polishing compound can get rust stains out pretty well on paint... Awesome find.
