1971 Plymouth 'Cuda 426 Hemi Cuda Barracuda Convertible Tribute on My Car Story with Lou Costabile

On "My Car Story" we're in Barrington IL at The Barrington Car Show on 7-3-14.

We're looking at a 1971 Plymouth 'Cuda 426 Hemi Cuda Barracuda Convertible. According to Owner John Murray he has had the car since 2001, and his car took 3 years to restore. When asked why this car, he shared, "It's the Holy Grail of Muscle Cars." Sounds and looks good to me.

Super nice restore ! Very factory looking ! I would have gone w/ Triple black !!! Nice job ...

This guy did an amazing job restoring this car to look 80% like the real thing.  The painted on decals really gives it away though.  That engine looks great, but someday the person who finds the Superbee and goes to restore it would be looking for that engine.

There was a little difference in hemi engines pre 70 they had solid lifters and 70-71 they had hydraulic lifters.

I feel that featuring this fake Hemi ‘Cuda on your channel was a mistake...you can do better.

Lou, I really wish you'd shut your trap and let the man talk.

Anyone out there what colour is this cuda??

[ryanstuckey]

if this is a real car painting the billboards on was a really stupid thing to do

[wieland]

is almost the same from the tv serie Nash Bridges

The white on the sides ruins it. Makes it look too Grandma. Would look a thousand times better all Sassy Grass.
