Butterscotch is a long forgotten color that I think looks great on these old muscle cars especially with that black top - looks especially good with black graphics.

I find it interesting how many Cuda’s and Challenger’s that are still out there. They weren’t all that common when they were new. Here in Wisconsin they were rusted out in four years.

I thought I'd seen all your mopar vids, but somehow this gem escaped me. What a beauty. Prior to 1971, this color, L5, "Butterscotch", is known as "Bahama Yellow". Thanks again Lou.

First Thing I' d Do If I Was Lucky Enough To Get this, Would Be To Repl..Heads W/ 360's & Find A 3:Duece Set Up For This SB BEAST !!

I like that yellow too. My cousins fiancee's had a 70' 440 six pack with a shaker. Mine 71' was orange with black trim. Beautiful car. Cuda'

[CiberS]

Beautiful and iconic vehicle, I have one of those in a videogame and now I want a real one sooo bad, sadly in my country there's no hope of getting one. :(

[MikeMcD-smds]

[fleetwin]

yeah, that beauty never would have survived out east.

Love that color i use to have a 383. Awesome car. Cuda's

[gerald]

I owned a 71 cuda 383 it was the only year with 4 headlights ot help alot at nite. 383 is a great motor. Orange with black billboards.

[gerald]

I took mone a orage Texas car up North to the rust belt pine needles got in the rear window stated rusting.

[gerald]

I got my cuda'in texas orange black billboards it was a dream come true. A guy i went school with had a red 340 71' shaker hood but we were up north then the rust just ate it up. It had black vynl top. It ran it to hell he collaped a cylinder and had to sleeve it. 😢 sad. Butterscotch nice color.

[gerald]

Let me tell ya the 383 was much more motor than 340. Yhe guy before me dropped a cam on ot put edelbrock aluminum manifold and a holley carb. It just ate thar clutch and pressure plate up. I had some hard times and sold it in Ohio. It hurts still to the day. I guess it was pushing 400 hp.
