Pro-touring cars have become the kings of muscle cars, combining classic looks with modern technology and performance, giving those who can afford it the best of both worlds. The problem is that these cars can be very, very expensive to build, and unless you are a person of considerable means, you’re stuck building, rather than buying, a badass resto-mod.

Of course if you are a person of means, and you’d rather have the immediate gratification of owning an awesome Pro-touring car now, then might we suggest this incredible ‘71 Plymouth HEMI ‘Cuda hardtop? For sale by RK Motors, this amazing 850 horsepower machine can be yours…for $159,000.

Powered by a massive 605 cubic-inch HEMI V8 making an incredible 850 horsepower and 790 ft-lbs of torque, this ‘Cuda has the chops for taking on both the dragstrip and, thanks to its custom suspension setup, autocross as well. A TCI-built 2-speed Powerglide transmission sends power to the Ford 9-inch Traction-Loc with 3:73 gears, and a Corvette C6 front clip provides a major suspension upgrade over the original ‘71 setup.

But what really drew us to this ride was the look. Sporting a matte-gray paint job and an impossible-to-ignore hoodscoop, this ‘Cuda looks like the kind of car the Devil might drive. Add to the incredible powertrain a simple-yet-tasteful interior that reminds us this is a race car (albeit one with a sick sound system), and you have one Pro-touring badass worth every penny of its six-figure asking price.
