My uncle '70 Cuda 440+6 4 speed Shaker.... Real V code
« on: September 15, 2009 - 09:44:13 AM »
I don't have better pics for now, but they surely will come  :picture:

Little story about this car....
This is my first Mopar I ever ride and I just hook for life! (I think I was 8 or 9??? can't remember exatly)

I never was really close to my uncle until his wife past away. Then we currently restart to connect and chat.

He bought the car back in 71, and its an original Vitamin C car, with shaker, track pack, 4 speed, go wing.........
Now the car is red and wingless, he says he like it that way.
This car never been restored on a rotisserie. Only a recent engine overhaul, interior (seat cover) and of course the paint, but that car been red for ....maybe 15 to 20 years.

Oh! by the way he drive it like he stole it! He still enjoy the car. As far I can remeber, this car never saw a trailer!

Its been very well taken care of. Now I need one! He's got some spare parts that i'm collecting and other I will be selling for him.

Now the pics: (don't mind the messy garage, he's just moved in)

 :2thumbs: Like they used to say a few years ago, "That is most awsome dude."   :ylsuper:  Anyone notice the shaker decal reflection on the air cleaner cover? Gives it another perspective, that car is shakin and also will knock ya over when she screams by you.  :2thumbs:  :roflsmiley:
