1974 Plymouth Cuda
« on: October 05, 2008 - 08:24:23 AM »
1974 Plymouth Cuda for sale - All original matching numbers 360/4 speed Cuda !

The Good - Numbers matching - engine/trans/fender tag/cowl and mint build sheet low mileage two owner Cuda. Second owner purchased this car in 1979 off original owner and rarely drove it in the past 10 + years. Body is 95% rust free with a mint grill, solid floor pans and trunk. Rare TX9 car with black interior and coded for a white side stripe. Engine compartment is very solid with some minor changes - carb/intake/replacement radiator and has headers. This car overall is very rust free, original and dry as a bone. Interior is in very nice shape - mint dash pad, glass is all nice, rear seat is mint. Door panels are mint ! Needs front seat covers and a carpet and the interior would be perfect. Missing orignal radio.

The Bad - Small rust hole on one fender. Only other rust is on passenger rear quarter down very low behind tire and small area front of wheel well. This is a easy patch/fix. Paint was done in 1980 or so and isn't horrible but is a 15 footer. Coded for and has it's orginal standard gauges ( not really bad but it's not a rally gauge car ).

The Ugly - nothing ! A original numbers matching E body Cuda with a four speed and in TX9 !! This car runs and drives nicely. Paint is showing it's age but it's respectable. Car needs a light cosmetic resto to be perfect. Orignal Rally's with BF Goodrich TA's showing good tread. Link to pictures below will answer a lot of questions. I do have a new white stripe for the car and the original air cleaner that is not on the car now.

$26,900.00 - b/o or interesting trades ??

Good luck with the sale.  This is a VERY difficult market for "unusual" cars right now.  Just ask the guy who's Viper I bought!

What is the fender tag readout?  Didn't see it on the ebay auction or here.

Yeah I'd be interested in seeing the fender tag too. I love triple black cars, awesome to be originally black on black with black steelies!

Looks like it needs a little more than "Light" cosmetic. Interior looks shot. Sale prices are low now. I think you'd be fortunate to fetch 15K for the car in it's current condition and the economy! Just my  :2cents:

I guess "light" is kind of a hopefull statement. I meant that the car really doesn't need any major metal work. But that being said painting a black car will require some work. This is a car you wouldn't be embarrased to drive for sure, the paint is just weathered a bit. The interior is really nice other than front seat covers and a carpet. The dash is beautiful, the door and rear panels are some of the nicest I've ever seen. The back seat cover is original and very nice. Second owner told me he never let anyone in the back seat of this car. I agree the market is bad right now. The reserve on ebay is very fair and well below the initial asking price in this thread. I'm going to get a better shot of the fender tag and a shot of the build sheet tomorrow.

Clean out that junk out of the engine compartment (non-OEM looking coolant overflow...siren?  OEM valve covers and air cleaner).  I.e. STAGE the car!


Redo the front seats and put in a Pistol Grip shifter.

You need LOTS of BIG pictures of the trunk and underside.  Pics of the rust hole.

no one's going to spend that kind of coin over the internet w/tiny pics.

Nice car!  $18K for that car would be a good price, IMO, the way the economy is and all.   :2cents:
