My 70 340 LA built Cuda had no undercoating on the front driver side, but had very little on the rear section of the passenger side. The driver side had what looked to be blackout paint on the rear section. Both rear wheel wells had undercoating.

FWIW I had a 1967 BelvedereI station wagon that also lacked undercoating under the fenders but had it in the rear. It also had black dip. Factory black car with a blue interior, 273, 3 speed on the column. Car was ordered new as a funeral home body pickup vehicle, still had the tie down for the gurney in the back.

After looking at the inner quarter panel view of the Cuda it looks similar to the Duster. There seems to much less inner QP undercoating.

That's why I asked I've only seen it on LA 4 speeds - looks like we might have learned something *cool*
