Ha, ha: I forwarded that diagram to the guy restoring the 70 FY1 340 Cuda Convt. that got shortened up by a ditch. No word back from him, I bet it will take him a while to match those #'s.

Yes: We sold him a buttload of sheetmetal for it. I'm glad it will be repaired.

I guarantee the frame is bent. I ran into a very similar problem. Good luck getting a frame shop that will even take the car on. I had to fix it myself.  :('

At one point, someone reached out to me about restoring it, that's where I got the pictures. Then they were on the fence and maybe were going to try and sell it as is.....I would have liked to buy it at the time.
I'm glad to see it getting restored too.....I hope they put frame connectors and a Hellcat Hemi in it :burnout:

Just as a point of reference; aren't the Challenger and Cuda frame specs different?
I think there is a separate chart showing the Cuda frame specs, and some of the reference points were different from 1970 to the later 1971-1974 cars. Never did a comparison though.
Is this correct?
:thinking:

Wow.  Did the owner ever decide to fix the Cuda vert?

The owner isn't repairing it a shop is. I think the car has been sold a few times since the incident. I don't think it helps that it wasn't restored correctly the first time.
