RestoMods has released another video, this time showcasing a classic 1970 Plymouth HEMI ‘Cuda. It combines classic muscle car design with high-performance modern upgrades. Thanks to the latest project from RestoMods.

This ‘Cuda originally was not equipped with the iconic HEMI engine, strictly because of cost constrictions. But this time, RestoMods built the car with a powerful Gen 3 6.1L crate HEMI V8. Like a beast under the hood, it’s going to give an electrifying rush of horsepower that’ll surely get each and every car enthusiast excited.

It is also mated with a Tremec 5-speed manual transmission, which grants total control to the driver and offers an honest experience of raw power from the engine. A Hurst shifter completes the classic muscle car feel with a satisfying mechanical click with every gear change.

“A visually arresting car. It just grabs yous” says Chris. Thanks to the strong red paint of the CUDA, which really plays up the muscular curves and aggressive stance of the car. Black vinyl “CUDA” graphics boldly sport on the rear quarters, while the hood proudly shows “HEMI 6.1L” badges.

But this ‘Cuda’s is not just about the outside looks. If you pop its hood, there’s an engine bay almost as impressive as the car itself. The red paint-matched finish and attention to detail show that the build took great care indeed. Every single component of the car is perfectly in place, every wire neatly organized. What an impressive engine.

Its stance alone is striking, thanks to its set of US Mags Rambler wheels. The 17×8 front and 18×9 rear wheels it houses are wrapped in high-performance Toyo Proxes tires, delivering a perfect balance of style and grip for this ‘Cuda to handle as sweetly as it looks.

A limited-slip differential helps apply the power from the HEMI to the road, and Wilwood 4-wheel disc brakes provide plenty of stopping power for a great-performing vehicle. The rack and pinion steering make the drive crisp and responsive, and this ‘Cuda will surely be a joy to drive on any type of road.

Some of the upgrades also include tubular front control arms, an AlterKtion K-member, and front and rear coilovers. With the help of these upgrades, it will make a ride a comfortable one.

For the last part, let’s discuss the interior part of the ‘Cuda. This is where the classic style meets modern comfort. The installed Procar leather and Alcantara front seats, with a reupholstered rear seat, will present the rider and passenger with a comfort and support level far beyond anything available in 1970.

The Lecarra steering wheel and full complement of Autometer gauges create a classic, yet informative, driving environment. Modern amenities like VintageAir A/C, premium stereo system, and power windows will also see to it that each drive is as enjoyable as it is thrilling.

This 1970 HEMI ‘Cuda restomod is just one of the many proofs to the skill and passion of the RestoMods team. It’s truly a car that bridges the gap between classic muscle and modern performance, offering the best of both worlds. It doesn’t matter if you are a die-hard Mopar enthusiast or just like good cars generally, this ‘Cuda should delight and deserves to find its place in one of the books.
