New Cuda Convertible Concept
« on: June 06, 2008 - 05:44:44 AM »
Just foud an article about a new 'Cuda vert concept made by Metalcrafters. The full story says:

"By the time Chrysler’s Dodge Challenger muscle car is still a muse for the modern Barracuda yet  to come we can already see on the streets some new “Cudas” but signed only by California’s Metalcrafters. This is the same company that last year revealed SEMA Barracuda coupe concept. Its latest model was shown just a few days ago during the annual Spring Fling event in California. The new convertible Barracuda  has a completely revised front- end with single projector headlights, a new grille and a black “shaker” hood. The rear also gets new lights, a central fuel filler cap and a small carbon fiber bootlid spoiler. As you may know, the original Barracuda was sold under the Plymouth signature. As this brand is no longer part of Chrysler’ s lineup we can expect for the latest version of Cuda to be sold as a Dodge or Chrysler brand. But at the moment the only signature appeared on the Barracuda is the one from Metalcrafters."

However there seems to be only one picture of this car released so far. Hope some more will follow soon. Personally i like it - except for the ghettowheels. And as you might know by now, i'd prefer to have it in triple black!  :naughty:

There's hundreds of pics of it on the internet. It was at MATS or Spring Fling (can't remember which) so many people took pics of it. Personally I think it looks awful, but to each their own.
