Cuda in Norway
New Member
Thanks for the membership. I'm a boy from Norway in his mid - 50s who has rekindled an old passion.
For info, I speak poorly and write miserably in English, so you have to put up with the fact that I use google translate as help. Google translate does not always work so well on translations, so grammatically it may seem a little strange what I write.
As mentioned, the interest in old cars was great in the 80s and 90s, but I have previously owned various Chevrolet, Impala, Caprice, Chevelle and Camaro have been in my possession. The last camaro was a matching numbers Z-28 Rally Sport, this was a prize winner in the original classes in Norway and Sweden. The car was used, but mostly to and from car shows.
Therefore, I was sure that my first mopar would not be a matching numbers car, but a nice car I could put my own stamp on. Now it should be said that I have the most sense for the original look of the cars, so the goal is to make the car look original without it having to be 100% original.
I have in all years thought that 71 Cuda is one of the toughest that was made in the 60's and 70's, when a little over a year ago I had the opportunity to buy one so I just had to use the opportunity.
The car is an H code car, but there is now a 440 under the hood, a 4 speed 833 provides the power for 8 3/4 rear axle. The idea is to drive the car in the summer and improve it in the winter.
