I just bought a 71 Cuda convertible. I have seen that some members have a copy of the "Options & Accessory Report" for '71 'Cuda.

If I remember correctly the report has the breakdown of colors by percentage as well as other options broken down by %.

I was wondering approximately how many Cuda convertibles were In Violet.

How many convertibles were actually V6X.

How many Cudas came with am / fm / cassette.

Thanks
Tom

I gotta come check this one out in person! LOL

Congratulations Tom, Very cool car. The information that I have is several years old and for '71 cuda convertibles only. V6X- 61, AM FM cassette- 15, FC7- 26 and D13- 8.

R35 is AM / FM. (no cassette)

Think you did great on this one Tom!

Here is a listing I just found of a similar one.

that's a "R36"

GG's '71 Plymouth e-body Option & Accessory report shows:

total US spec. '71 'Cuda BS23 & BS27 production = 5,675

combined BS23/BS27 with "V6_" billboards @ 32.1% ~ 1,822 cars

combined BS23/BS27 with "R36" AM/FM/cassette @ 2.4% ~ 136 cars

combined BS23/BS27 with "FC7" IN-Violet @ 7.9% ~ 448 cars

Thanks everyone. Very good info. The car is paid for but not here yet.

Pretty interesting car the way it's optioned. 3 speed with manual top. But rallye gauges, billboards and am/fm cassette.

Here are a couple more pictures. The car also has its original window sticker.

That one is owned by a Moparts member.

I thought I would post a couple of pictures as an update. The car arrived a couple of months ago as a non runner and pretty dusty.

I've got it up and running well. It cleaned up very nicely!

That is an awesome car my friend! Congrats to you.
Matt

That car cleaned up real well.... Enjoy..

Good candidate for a passon 5 speed ( if your not too old)(you might die before it gets there if you are).......

Original 3-speed cars rock!

Back "in the day" it was the kiss of death.. NOBODY wanted a 3 speed and if a car had one good chance the tranny was wasted from abuse....

More money than the cars were worth to upgrade to a 4 speed...

Guaranteed you will become very bored driving the car with this transmission, to where an upgrade would make it a whole new car....

Again, great candidate for a Passon 5 speed....

Until you put it in first and find out your in reverse

Actually I'm loving it. I've owned a dozen 4 speed cars over the last 20 years and this is the nicest shifting car I've ever had. It shifts like butter.

I've also converted many a car to 4 speed. This car is all original and runs so well I won't be doing any mods. I'm also excited that it's an oddball. It should show very well

I had a 1971 Cuda B7 was the color in 1977 it was my daily driver to and from high school ... It was a 340 and it had a 3-speed from the factory I changed it to a 4 speed within a couple of months of owning it.

That looks very interesting! Is that your new ride Barry???

I would think that most of the 3 speeds were converted over by now. After all it's been over 45 years!

Console
Cassette
3 speed

That's something I've never seen.

Congrats on the car

Thanks Morty!
