    71 Hemi Convert Cudas seem to be impossible for Burpin to find.

    Burpins seems to have trouble locating a 72 Hemicuda as well, lol.

    Just found these today at a local wrecking yard.  The bucket is a complete set out of a 1970 challenger with all hardware and bolts (both front and back with lap and shoulder).  The pile next to it is some extra belts that were thrown in.  There are a few 70's in that pile too.  I paid $125 for all the belts.  I thought I was paying TOP dollar until I called Snake Oyl to see how much to have them refurbished.  They quoted me over $800 for the set!!!!!!!!!!!!! :eek2:  Is there an easier way?

    The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realize it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

    my cuda is a factory heater delete car. has a block off plate under the hood where there would be hoses coming out of the fire wall. Ive been it is a factory plate along with the block of plate under the dash on the left side where the controls would be. i would imagine those parts would be pretty rare.

    My before and after shots of my belts.. I used this stuff call Krud Kutter and it worked great. I'm sure its not as complete of a resto as Snake oyl but shure was a lot cheaper.

    I was just going over the Hot Rod Mopar issue that came out last fall. On page 89 they show a 71 Challenger with a rear elastomeric bumper. They say it was an option but yet I have never seen one before.

    Tough one for me.....locating correct six pack carbs for California only N95 option.

    Not necessarily applies to me but I understand finding ANYTHING hardware-wise for a factory sunroof E-body is unheard of...

    This one? They are somewhat rare, but are on eBay every once and a while. Beside super rare parts for Hemi cars, I would say that the side scoop on the 70 Cudas is one of the rarer parts. Sure rimblows and 71 cuda grilles are rare and worth a lot, but there is almost always one on eBay....whereas I have yet to see a set of those Cuda sidescoops on eBay.

    Killer,   That piece you show was not a '70 piece. The '70 peice was a 2 pieces with a left and right side.  I bought the very last NOS right side in 1978 from St. Ann Dodge in St. Louis.  Later sold it to Ted Stevens at Monster Mopar in 2000.   
    I see the 1 piece Chrome one on '73s and '74 Chall all the time.

    Nope that is a 70 2-piece set, I just overlapped the two pieces and it made the illusion that is was one piece.
