170 Cuda

About 170 Cuda

A YouTube channel dedicated to my love of Plymoutha. I have owned my 1970 Cuda since 1976. It was my first car and I was just a senior in high school at the time. I still have the Cuda and I still drive it whenever I get the chance.

My obsession with the Plymouth Cuda started before I could drive. I was 16 and there was a 1970 Cuda (4 Speed) for sale next to my dads shop. Ever since then, I knew I had to have one.

My Cuda has provided some of the best memories of my life. After 3 crashes, 5 paint jobs and 3 different engines, it still gives me that same adrenaline rush, same joy as it did when I was 16.

When I kick the bucket, this car will go to my daughters. Having said this, I will probably have the slap stick shifter placed in my coffin so I can get a second gear chirp on the way to heaven.

A special thanks to Frank Mendez who inspired me to appreciate muscle cars. I looked up to him in high school and he played a huge part in my passion for cars.
