| This is a genuine 1970 Plymouth "R Code" HEMI powered Cuda. Finished in EB7 Jamaica Blue Iridescent over Black Leather interior, she is a beauty. This is no clone or uptight trailer queen. This is the real McCoy and its ready to run! Here are the highlights.
Exterior:
The original R Code HEMI boasts its original sheet metal. Quarters and drops are factory including original locator tabs. The floor pans, rockers, and trunk all rust free rock solid and appear to be original. The vinyl top and front and rear bumpers are new. Fenders are original. The shaker hood and assembly also appear to be OEM factory original. If you've spent any time around Mopar's, especially those which spent time in the Mid-West, you know how remarkable this is.
Interior:
If you are looking for a no drama driver with a crisp interior, here you go. The interior has been thoroughly refreshed. New dash pad, fully restored gauges, new door panels, carpets, and leather seat covers. The headliner, console, and overhead consolette, are in very good condition. Everything works. The rim-blow steering wheels feels rich in the hand. A HEMI powered Cuda with a well-appointed "Gran Coupe" interior from the factory, that is quite a find.
