Equipment
426/425hp Hemi, 4-speed, shaker hood scoop, power brakes, Goodyear Polyglas GT tires, bucket seats, pistol grip shifter, rally gauge pack In Kilometers. Vinyl upholstery.
Condition
Original European delivery car. Original owner, the consignor's father, was official Plymouth importer for Denmark. Raced on both road circuits and in a straight line. Good paint and body. Panel gaps are consistent. Raced in period and since restored by Lloyd Lind. Chrome and brightwork are all very good. The engine compartment is clean and properly displayed. The underbody is clean and still appears freshly restored. The interior is partly original, presents well and is not overdone. A well presented, unusual European delivery Hemi 'Cuda. Nothing overdone, just well done.
Market commentary
This 'Cuda might have brought more based on its quality restoration but the race modifications now rectified during restoration inject an element of uncertainty in its history which both Bonhams in setting the estimate range and the bidders appropriately reflected. It is a quality car even without a representation of the drivetrain's originality and brought a reasonable price for both the buyer and the seller.
