Good day everyone. And yes i actually have two Cuda's. I purchased the first one in 1986 when my 1974 BH was side swiped by a Chrysler New Yorker. 318 3 speed car. The Car was totaled. I used the Insurance Money to Purchase a 1971 BS which I mistakenly thought at the time was a 340 four speed car. Years later I checked the Vin and it turned out to be a 383 4 speed CAR and the 340 was really a 318. Last drove in 1988. Had to stop driving it as I was college student 14 MPG. The second car was purchased in about 1991 from a guy that needed money and his wife was tired of walking around it in the garage. I was smart enough to check the VIN this time. yes it was a BS. originally a 318 automatic However some one shoved a 383 automatic in it before I got it. ( This I have never driven) as i got it in pieces. These Cars need everything gone through. I have been collecting parts for about 20 years. Many of which I find latter don't fit E bodies or I have doubles of. I started the restoration of the 71 about 9 months ago. So any help or pictures of a restored or original 1971 Cuda 383 would be greatly appreciated

Thank You Everyone Looks like it will be cool next couple of years. I have started my research. i purchased an original 1971 Chassis Service Manual years ago as well as 1970-1071 Mopar Passenger Cars Parts Catalog dated 1971 Loos Leaf. MOTOR Auto Repair Manual 1974 ( blue Cover) I had a red covered version years ago but seems to be missing.
