'Cuda convertible (one-off concept?)

We've already seen a one-off coupe, now a 'vert. Gorgeous

I like it! Are those headlights from an S197 Mustang?

Gotta chrome the A-pillars and around the windshield; otherwise perfect.

Since the New Challenger's body is far more like the old Barracuda than the old Challenger, it only makes sense that SOMEBODY would create a retro 'Cuda from one. Rear doesn't look bad in the picture but that front end is not very good. The headlamps are too small and those grill pieces are hideous. As a past owner of a '70 'Cuda, I can tell you that it does my heart good to see pictures like this. Always liked the 'Cuda better than the Challenger, and it got no better than the '70 version. Never liked the 4-headlamp '71 and after that, the car went to hell anyways both mechanically and styling wise.

I like the Cuda concept better than the Challeenger. It needs lowering springs and fatter rubber. Shaker Hood
