Jeff Peterson’s 1970 Plymouth HEMI Cuda

1970 Plymouth HEMI Cuda


I found this car about four years ago after looking for years for just the right car. I was more interested in Pure Stock drag racing than concours judging with this project so the 426ci V-8 was balanced and blueprinted to NHRA Stock Class specifications. This Cuda also has the Super Track Pack option which includes a 4.10 gearset.

This Cuda features Black paint with the unusual H6E4 red interior, Shaker Hood, and a Pistol Grip 4 speed transmission. Although not original it also has a Red “Hockey Stick” stripe.

Last year when the car was completed and after only 40 minutes of engine break-in time I made some shakedown passes at the Pure Stock Muscle Drags. I plan to return this year looking for some high 12 second E.T's.
