Just picked up this AAR Cuda today for a ground up restoration. Car came from the Windsor ON area....

I say Deja vu because this will be the second FF4 AAR Cuda that I've restored...

Some of you may recall member @SYDWAZ FF4 AAR I did a few years ago. (yes I haven't forgotten about your glass adjustment Doug, it's on my list :sorry:)

It's a real pretty green when new...and this one is pretty interesting to say the least...I'll try and get better pictures tomorrow, that is SNOW in these pictures. :verymad:

Looks like it is in great shape. Hope we get to follow the build. Cheers.

I'll go into more detail tomorrow, but it also left the factory with NO vinyl top, so that is how it will be restored. :bigthumb:

Alan: I also have a perfect mint 1970 single speaker green non A/C pad, for one of my other green on green 1970 Barracuda's.  That roof is the same material that came on 1971 Plymouth Fury Gran Coupes.

I wish this car was coded for this roof, or that we had proof of a dealership installation or something....it's pretty cool and I think installed at the dealership because the trim is all factory stuff. The car will be restored without a vinyl top  :dunno:

WOW on the green pad...they must be as rare as hens teeth for sure...

I got it from a guy in Ontario! That roof pattern, paisley, was standard on ALL 1971 Plymouth Fury Gran Coupe cars.

If mine I would keep that roof.

That roof is pretty unique, I've never seen that before! Kinda cool really!

A little off topic but Alan or any other members who desire those paisley tops for your project, you could contact Nigel at National Moparts.
20 years ago I traded him 10 NOS vinyl tops in their factory Mopar shipping tube, same style as seen in the first photo as well as some as seen in the second photo.
He may have sold them all by now to the land yacht crowd

Those are cool...Nigel probably made curtains for his home out of them :haha:
