Title: 71 Cuda From Ohio
Post by: 82firebird on September 06, 2017, 11:59:30 AM
Hello everyone! I am Aaron from Ohio. My wife and I area very much gear-heads. When we first started dating, she showed me a picture of a 71 Cuda and said, "I want that car someday!".  :bradsthumb: We have had a handful of old cars but this one is one of our favorites.

We have a 71 Cuda 340 car that was converted to a 4 speed and shaker hood. The engine is numbers matching. The car was rotisserie restored probably 10-15 years ago. We drive it as often as possible (3-4 times a week)- and now she wants her own 71 Cuda; stay tuned on that!

We have done a lot of "detail" work but most notable, we changed wheels and tires the day we bought the car and installed the billboards ourselves. I look forward to meeting more of you and learning more about these cars.

(I just realized the door handles are off in these pictures, this was the day we installed the billboards)

 :haha:  I love your license plate!  Welcome to the forum...you'll love it here.  You really can't beat a 71 Cuda with a shaker...in my opinion.   Glad to have you on board!  :welcome:

Thanks for all the welcomes guys. You made me feel so welcomed that I went out and bought another one!  :whiteflag:

Just kidding.. we have been looking for a long time for another 71 Cuda for my wife and this car ended up being "the one". There is alot to the story but the short version is, BS23 340 automatic,  FE5 red, should have white top and white interior, but shes gorgeous as is for now! We bought it from a great guy who truly loved this car. I will have to make a separate thread for the "progress" we make on it.

If one 71 Cuda was not enough, I see Mopar hoarding in your future. :pokeeye:  Love the cars and pic of your family.  Hopefully the boys will grow up loving your cars.  My daughter is only two and I already have her completely brainwashed to love cudas.

That's not considered brain washing. It's more like the facts of life! :haha:
