Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

426/425hp R-Code, 4-speed, Dana rear end, drum brakes, black steel wheels with hub caps, Polyglas GT tires, hood pins, Hurst pistol grip shifter, Solid State radio, rear speaker.

Condition

From the Brett Torino collection. Unrestored with 58,992 miles and represented to have the original engine. Bought new in Virginia. Comes with original invoice and two broadcast sheets. Very good chrome. Big scratch on the left rear fender. Dull finish on the front fender vents. Small chip on the right rear fender. A few small scratches on the driver door. Original but very tidy underneath. Very good interior with a few waves and small cracks in the top of the dash. Rear window frame doesn't fit flush with the body. A handful of flaws aside, this is a very pretty car, especially considering its complete originality.

Market commentary

Hemi magic still works, although this 'Cuda is so meticulously original that it's hard to say how much of the price is 'Cuda Hemi and how much is original 'Cuda. Both go together to make for an exceptionally good result, in line with other 'Cuda Hemi hardtops sold recently.
