What do you guys think about this one?

Not the motor I'm looking for by far, but on the lower end of the price spectrum...

good color
Good documentation
Looks great
Very decent options

Better price!   

Not bad really in my opinion.  Looks like a better deal than I have seen lately for a 2-4.

Wow that engine bay brings back memories of my 74 when purchased in 83.
Manual brakes. Even the overflow tank.
Looks good in pics.

If you are planning engine swap. It has the small core support opening.

@YellowThumper can you elaborate?

Came with 22" radiator, you need to change the core support side panels to put in a 26" radiator for better cooling with a bigger engine, can be done but means cutting and welding.

I cooled a 426 Hemi for many years using a 22 inch rad so it isn't a deal breaker. I like the looks of the Cuda in question. I don't trust other people's engines anyway so if I wanted more power I'd swing out the 18 and install a roller cam, stroker, 360 if I wanted to make it to school on time. This Cuda looks better than most.

Mine has the same small opening. Mine was actually a 19" radiator factory. They just added an extension plate to radiator to fit 22" opening. Belief is that only the passenger side is different. All different now but long ago I put a 26" in it. Drivers side bolted in and made a simple plate to adapt existing holes to wider radiator. Factory 26" shroud also worked correctly for alignment.
A bit of the radiator does get shrouded. However,  the current  "small" opening will flow more air thru it than any size radiator ever will.
