hey theres nothing better than a 71 with billboards, all the guys that say no dont have a clue!!! the 70 dosent compare not even close!!

hate 'em.

71 cudas without billboards look almost as boring as 70 Cuda's.

Put em on. Just make sure they are the black ones. The white don't look so good.

Seeing as how the billboards were the coolest thing ever invented next to the wheel... I'd say add them.

Decals are a pain to clean around though (wax).

Sell without, but throw them in with the sale (if you already have them) and give the proud new owner the choice!

The 70 Cuda is an extemely clean design, then Chrysler hung on the "busy" 71 grille and cheesey fender louvers. For me adding the billboards just totally "kiddies" it up. I would leave them off. If the next owner wants to add them he can go ahead.

I agree.

no chevys they suck!!!! 71 with billboards nothing better, 70 i laugh at hahahahahahaha!!!!

Billboards all depend on the color of the car and the decal. To me, I love Curious Yellow with black billboards, but a black vinyl top and rubber bumpers should be a part of the image too. But seeing a car without a vinyl top and without billboards also makes for a new experience, as if it is a different car.

I also love white billboards. Of course it depends on the color of the car, but when you see one color with black ones and then a similar one with white one, again it's like looking at a whole different car.

I think all you need to do is look at Alan Gallant's old white and orange '71 340 car to see that these cars don't need billboards, and his car ended up better without them.

Given that the car is not a high impact color, I'd say skip the billboards - and this is coming from a guy that actually sells the stripes...

I just painted my 71' coal miners butt black- I had Phoenix graphics make my billboards out of the flat black(reflects white) material used on Road Runner strobe stripes- should look wicked. So my vote is for Billboards-

post a pic of your black cuda??

The new owner might re-paint and/or stripe the car! I despise clones and by the way guys, I'll
trade my "clean looking" '70 for a "busy" '71 all day long...

If that is what you like, put them on. I like em. Dont worry about if you have to sell it, if it is nice it will sell no matter what (if priced appropriately)

What wheels are on them? I like them without billboards if they have painted steel wheels. If they have 10 hole ralleys or magnums, I like the billboards.

Just sold a resto project 71-340-auto that was lemon twist with factory black billboards and top. I'd have to get rid of the black top though.

What, no pic's?
