1970 Plymouth
HEMI ‘Cuda
Convertible
1 of 14 Produced
Not just 1 of 14 HEMI Cuda Convertibles built in
1970, this car is one of 9 equipped with an automatic transmission. Difficult
to fathom that of the thousands of Barracuda’s produced in 1970, a mere 9
people chose to buy one like this.
Anyone who has managed to come and visit our
facility has undoubtedly seen this car, it has been a staple of the showroom
since we opened the doors of our current facility in 2002. A factory FY1 Lemon
Twist ‘cuda, this example came to us about 10 years ago for a complete
restoration. Recognizing it’s rarity it certainly warranted the effort. An
original Canadian delivery car, it came with an odd array of options, obviously
the 426 HEMI engine, automatic transmission, but with FY1 yellow paint, tan
interior and a black soft top. Add to that Shaker Hood, power brakes, but no
power steering or Dana axle. The car is a bit of an anomaly, but the uniqueness
and rarity of these cars is truly what makes them so special and so unique
.
