I don't know about you, but High Impact colors made the 'Cuda a genuine head-turning machine. I was a big fan of Moulin Rouge, but any of the five High Impact finishes available on the 1970 'Cuda looked fantastic.
Plymouth offered the 'Cuda with a 383 Magnum V8 engine as standard. Customers who wanted more than 335 horsepower could order the optional 440 four-barrel Magnum with 375 horsepower (available for $131) or the 440 V8 with 390 horsepower. The top choice on the 1970 'Cuda was the almighty 426 Hemi with 455 horsepower, albeit it was available for $871 over the base price.
A 1970 'Cuda landed on eBay earlier this week, hoping it can find a new home where it might eventually receive the minor TLC it needs to return to tip-top shape.
As anyone can figure out from the photos shared by seller 67pace101, this 'Cuda already looks good. The dent in the upper left quarter was produced by a board that fell on the car. You'll also find some bubbles above the left tires, but the paint still looks good.
Speaking of paint, let's talk a bit about the surprise I told you in the headline. The 'Cuda was born with a red finish, but a previous owner changed its color to the one you see today. The body is also covered in Ziebart protection, so the original metal is safe.
The engine under the hood is no longer the original unit. The VIN decodes to a U-code 'Cuda born with a 440 four-barrel engine, but the car now comes with another mill to put the wheels in motion. A previous owner installed a 1968 unit and a manual transmission, and the drivetrain now comes in working shape. The owner says the engine "runs strong and sounds great," but as usual, potential buyers should check it out in person before committing to a purchase.
As anyone would expect, a 1970 'Cuda in such a great shape can't sell cheaply despite no longer sporting the original engine and paint. The owner expects to get $62,500 for the car, and the Make Offer option is not available, meaning the price is firm.
You can find the 'Cuda in London, Ohio, and considering 23 people are already watching the listing, I expect the car to find a new owner in the coming weeks. The listing will expire in 28 days, so you have approximately one week to inspect the car in person and decide if you want to make an offer. The 'Cuda comes in great shape, so it should be able to drive anywhere, meaning you won't need a trailer to take it home (unless you live far away from its location).
