1970 Plymouth HEMI ’Cuda – Numbers Matching 426 HEMI – 4-Speed Manual – FT6 Burnt Tan Metallic
Owned by Bobby Sykes, engineer at Keith Black Engines – with Record-Breaking Bonneville History
One of the rarest and most valuable muscle cars in the world
This isn’t just another HEMI ’Cuda. This is a numbers-matching, rotisserie-restored, investment-grade Mopar with legendary provenance — powered by the very same engine that set a Bonneville land speed record in 1981.

With documented ownership history, full concours-level restoration, and historic racing provenance, this HEMI ’Cuda stands as one of the most collectible Mopars ever offered.
