A natural-born classic, the '71 HEMI® 'Cuda may possibly be the world's most valuable Muscle Car.

This awesome precision replica re-creates every sizzling detail of the legendary 'Cuda.
In the world of Muscle Cars, nothing commands both market attention and performance appreciation like the Plymouth Hemi® ’Cuda Convertible. In 1971, the writing was on the wall for the Hemi® engine. A looming fuel crisis, increased insurance ratings, and a change in styles brought the era of raw performance to an end. The ’71 Hemi® delivered on the promise of performance and great looks but found only 7 buyers who were willing to pay the premium price for what would become a million-dollar car some 40 years later. The 1971 Hemi® ’Cuda was the top of the line but offered only minor changes from the previous year. A new grille and taillight treatment, as well as new interior patterns, were just part of the changes in the model line. The most notable features of the 1971 Hemi® ’Cuda were the addition of “Fender Gills,” situated on the front fenders, and quad headlamps. Although the 1971 Hemi® ’Cuda ended the Muscle Car era, it reigns today as one of the most desirable and sought-after Muscle Cars to drive the streets of America.
Now, the sleek, muscular 1971 Plymouth Hemi®’Cuda Convertible is re-created in an authorized, precision-engineered 1:24 scale replica, crafted in authentic detail by Franklin Mint Precision Models. Your 1971 Plymouth Hemi®’Cuda Convertible Limited Edition is certain to be a showpiece that you will admire for years to come.
