1973 Cuda Rare Export Model
« on: October 10, 2007 - 07:09:54 PM »
I fancy a change next year so am putting the Cuda up for sale
 

1973 Plymouth Cuda (Genuine Cuda - not Barracuda)
One of the Kingston Eight- built for export to Tenerife

The Kingston eight were a bunch of Cuda's and one Barracuda  that were ordered from the factory by a dealer in Gran Canaria in the Canaries in 1973 these for what ever reason these were not sold until a dealer from Kingston American Car Center found them in 1978 and shipped them back to the UKwhere they were sold off slowly some didnt even sell untill 1982 hence these cars have very low
 all these cars were built on 04/04/73.
I know where some but not all of these cars are, if any one knows the location of any more please let me know.

Original 340 Engine
8 3/4 Rear with 3:23
Forest Metallic Green
New Legendary Interior
New Rallye Dash
New Carpet
New Flowmasters
New Rubber

$38 000

I guess it may be just me,but no matter what pedegree the car has it will always be a 73.While i like 73's they still will never be as desireble as 70/71 even if the queen of sheeba ordered it.I wouldnt care who ordered the car.If i had a choice between this car for 38k and a 70 BB 4 Cuda,the choice is a no brainer.I am not bashing,someone else may be willing to pay for the history.

Cool car but pics would be great.  Cool video also, proof that the rock bands of the '70's were the greatest, most creative ever!

Hi Guys

All comments welcome

I guess the price does seem very high- A lot of this is because the Dollar is 2 to 1 Pound at present- I really dont expect somenone in the States to buy it - I think it will end up in Europe

anyways heres the Pics

That should have been crap not nuts but I used another apparent bad word for crap and it was changed to nuts.
