This is a 29k mile car that has a short and complete owner history. It has always been a rust free original panel car. There were 107 Hemi Cuda hard tops made for US production in the 1971 model year and only 48 of them were automatics. This is a steep drop in production from the 1970 model year which was over 650 cars. If you are looking for a 1970 Hemi Cuda, you will have a much easier time finding a nice example. If you are looking for a great example of a 1971 Hemicuda then you could be looking for a long time. There will usually be some cars with excuses to choose from but a car like this does not come along very often. What makes this car a great car you ask. I will tell you:
Great Color Combo- Hemi Orange/ Black
Important Options - Rally Dash, 4:10 Dana Super Track Pack, Console with Slap Stick Shifter, Painted Grill and Racing Mirrors,Color Key Grill,etc
Numbers Matching Original Drive Train- Motor, Trans, Dana Rear
Rust Free Original Body panels- CA Car, always rust free, Zero metal replacement
Original Interior in Mint Condition
Bullet Proof Documentation- Original Fender Tag, Buildsheet, Galen Visual Inspection, Owners manual, Braking distance sheet, Warranty doc, etc,etc,etc
Provenance - Complete owner history documented with paperwork showing the Owner at the time along with the VIN of this car on Regs, Insurance cards, Inspection reports, etc
Condition:
See pics in my linkof the car before it was restored. You will see a low mileage rust free car. The body, engine compartment, under carriage and center of the trunk floor have been repainted. The interior is mint original. Wheel houses and a lot of the trunk area is still original paint.

This car runs as good as it looks. The tires brake loose at 30 mph when both carbs with 8 barrels are released.
This could be your last chance to own a 71 Hemi Cuda of this caliber so dont snooze.
I have a CHALLENGE for you. Try to find another 71 Hemi Cuda for sale with no excuse, at a price even close to mine and show it to me. I will be happy to list the excuses of every car you can name if the seller did not list them in his ad.
Excuses will include:
Non original motor or trans
No Broadcast sheet or similar documentation
Repro Fender tag
Rebodied
etc....
