Dads first car 73 Cuda

[Matt Johnson]

hey guys Matt Johnson here from just outside of Louisville. Dad's had his 73 Cuda for as long as I can remember since it was his first car. Car needs a full restoration and looking to join the boards to gather info. Been playing with B-Bodies for awhile and looking forward to getting into something smaller and more nimble

Great car. That was my first Cuda. I’m restoring another 73 now. Good luck

Love the enthusiasm guys... I will try and get some current and old pictures of it as well. Little history of the car, Spinnaker White with a 318 automatic. Dave loves Kimmy scratched into the transmission tunnel (Mom and Dads name, high school sweethearts and still together happily) The hippie foot gas pedal and brights mini foot has been removed ha.
Future plans as it currently sits...
Plum Crazy purple with black vinyl top and black hockey stick strips
Engine transmission 440 4 speed. got a few 440 blocks and the only 4 speed e body part I have gathered is a pistol grip handle and shifter mechanism... too cool not to use though so four speed here we come!
