There is a fender tag missing which is " Hemi Fender" that should be next to the other one. They came with special cut fenders to clear the large F-60-15 tires. I know cause I have the I bought in 1970!
Awesome video. Nice to see both cars side by side. Really enjoyed watching this. The silver paint that has the texture is called "Argent Silver". There is a dark and a light version of the Argent Silver. The same paint can be found on the center caps of the Rallye wheels (on the "In Violet" car in the video). The three 2 barrels carbs on a Plymouth were called a "Six Barrel". Only Dodge called the three 2 barrels a "Six Pack". As mentioned by previous comments, for Plymouth, the purple was called "In Violet". Only Dodge called the color "Plum Crazy". The front lights under the front bumper are called "Road Lamps". The 6 Barrel Cuda will typically be faster off the line (Auto or manual trans) but the Hemi will typically out perform at top end. BTW, the polyglas tires may be "original" but not necessary original to that car. All and all, both bad ass cars!
Absolutely stunning pair of Cudas. So gorgeous and perfect examples of classic Mopar muscle. Doesn't get any better. Thanks for sharing . Great video ! MOPAR OR NO CAR !!
Just to let you know there's no hockey stick stripe for 1971, you could only get the big billboard stripe and the hemi code on the fender tag and VIN is R and 440+6 is V.
Very cool cars, and nicely done down to the original style batteries. The hemi code is denoted by the R in the serial number. The 440+6 vehicle is denoted as such by the V code in its serial number, and technically, the Plymouths were referred to as 6bbl's rather than 6 Packs (Dodge). V codes were 390hp in '70, and 385 in '71. The '71 was rated at 490 lb-ft of torque. Thanks for the entertaining video. Careful, bc even if they look perfect, 50yo tires are probably dry-rotted.
Nice the 71 has not got the fog lights .they are the Turing signals below. The fog light was an option on the 71 . And the 70 limelight colour fj5 was a one year only colour . Both beautiful cars because I have a 70 limelight car 340 I would love to have its big brother parked next it . The ebodies are just a wonderful shape IMO the 71 was a rarer car but a hemi is a hemi for a reason nice video thank you
@@CarsShopsAndCollections nice, I’m in the process of restoring a 1970 Plymouth satellite convertible 1 of 701 produced 1 of 3 FC7 white interior white top car.
I have a 71 cuda drag car but in the 90s I built s plum crazy 81 dodge truck with a Challenger hood then I built a sublime 75 dodge truck I use to say Purple and Green shouldn't be seen except in the washing machine
Garsh darn! I love all those awesome Mopars! Keep 'em coming! Thanks JC
Thanks for watching! They are both incredible!

The black one reminds you of my brother's 70 446 pack cooter back in the day... Brings back some great memories

1971 car is straight out of Phantasm.
Some beautiful rides. Thanks again for the great content
I appreciate you watching!!!!
440 is the holy grail of Cuda’s

I appreciate the info!
Beautiful video such iconic cars...doing a fantastic job mate keep up the good work 👏 👍
Kids in the candy shop! Nice cudas 🥰
I was geeking out on this episode
According to a friend that owns a Cuda in Purple the Plymouth color was Inviolet not Plum Crazy (Dodge's version) as stated in the video. 🤓
Correct! Something I learned after filming this episode.
Beautiful Mopar queens! Barracudas are top!💪💪💪

So cool! Thanks for dropping some knowledge and thank you for watching!
I know the tires look good with no cracks on the purple car but it's still crazy they drive this car on 50 year old tires
Great point! It’s for sale… I don’t think they drive it too much.
I own a black on black 1971 Hemi Cuda I've owned since 1974, but mines a 4 speed car. It sits in my garage right next to my 1933 Ford Opera coupe.
That is one incredible garage!
The 440-6 would win in the quarter.
How can the tires be original and still have that much meat on them having over 44 thousand miles on them ????
N96 is the shaker hood scoop code
You should try to see the Torino collection in vegas it’s not as good as it was when I managed the collection but it’s still good.
Would love to! I believe one of these came from that collection!
@@CarsShopsAndCollections nice,

Put body colored painted bumpers and chrome wheels on the 70
