The May 2022 issues of Hemmings contained an interesting article about the restoration of a 1970 'Cuda convertible, painted Sassy Grass Green. It has a 440 6-Pack engine, a 727 automatic and a Dana 60 rear axle with a factory-available 4.10 gear set. A Second-to-none Restoration on a One-of-one 440-6 ’70 ’Cuda... | Hemmings
The 'Cuda is going to shred those classic F60-14 Polyglass GT tires. A 440 6-Pack has 490 lb/ft of torque. This car has a 4.10 rear and a 727 Auto. which will provide torque multiplication. It will need slicks to launch properly.
Hemmings (both MMM and the big book) is the only company now bringing automotive material into my home. How times have changed. So sad...
Back in the late 60s/early 70s, my favorite car mag was Car Life. They had great car reviews and road tests.
Hit on the link to the Hemmings story. Very well written and fantastic step by step photos. Painstakingly rebuilt to be just like factory. The car is 1970 all over again. Great job guys!!
