Johan 71 Cuda

[Keef]

Bought this one years ago from a friend on Facebook. It has been stripped and redone a couple of times over the years but this is its final build. Wired the engine, lowered the stance a bit. I used the radiator from the Revell 71 Cuda kit as it looked better. Paint is Krylon Fusion Gloss Jungle Green over Duplicolor gray primer. It may not be a show winner but I’m happy with it.

Great looking build! I love to see these old Johan kits built.

Nice work

Great looking paint color just says MoPar. Like the Hemi engine detailing.

Very mean looking Cuda, excellent engine, high impact color, and Keystone mags, gotta love it.

I appreciate the compliments from everyone! I’m trying to get some projects finished before I start any new ones. It seems I get to the mock-up stage and start working on another one.

A true beast!

Nice job. I'm working on this on over in WIP drag cars. The sad thing is the only thing keeping me from being done is I'm missing both the bumpers.

I've seen that. For me that's to expensive and I'll probably end up making my own.

Another cool Mopar there Keith, but again no rear shot. Your style of builds is appealing to me, a mix of stock and drag racer. Well done. 

Cheers, 

David. ??

Good looking Cuda, Keith. I always thought the Jo-Han Cuda would make a great street machine, and clearly, it does.
