Mr Cuda

 I find it interesting that this old documentation shows 19 total 71 cuda converts w/shaker.
 7 of 17 are on known 440-6 converts, leaving 12 for all others.
 Soon every convertible will be a factory shaker.

That would be great.
EVERY Cuda should have a 'Shaker' or 'AAR' hood, as that fake scooped 'Raisin-Brand' hood still
looks as hideous as ever after 50 years. LOL

I happen to love the styling of the rallye hood.  and when painted and shiny, gives off some wonderful reflections as one drives down the road.  I bought a shaker for a rallye hood car, but have mixed feelings about putting it on.  The shaker is becoming more and more popular, and seems to be common.  And who wants common?

Back when I was growing up, you were either a 'gear-head' or a 'waxer'. LOL
A 'gear-head' wants the best performance from their ICE
ICE loves cold fresh air for better proformance & efficiency.

A 'waxer', is, well, a 'waxer'.

'Shaker' hoods are common?
I'm guessing that the ratio is probably 1 'shaker' per 10,000 'Raisin Bran' hoods?

Could you imagine a 'Raisin Bran' hood on a hemicuda?
That would be awful & blasphemy.

Now an 'AAR' hood on a hemicuda would be awesome, & should've been an option like the TA hood option on a Hemi Challenger.
A quick & easy way to lose 100 pounds on the front end.
