Built by Rich Gebhardt, this 1970 Cuda Gran Sport features a very high performance 383 big block, obviously far from stock. The motor makes around 700HP and was built using all the best parts of the day. The semi-radical, high-lift (580), long duration cam has a great lope. Compression in all 8 cylinders is perfect. The Holley 750 Carbs were recently tuned and the motor runs absolutely flawlessly. I recently spent weeks cleaning up and polishing everything on the motor. All new chrome bolts and nuts everywhere I could put 'em. This past week I also spent $750 on an entirely new fuel delivery system. The old system did not allow room for a hood. The 727 trans shifts tightly. It has a reverse manual valve body. The brakes work extremely well, despite the fact they are drum all the way around. All 4 tires are almost brand new. The car leaks no fluid. This pro street Cuda looks radical, but it is very street friendly and can be driven anywhere, even in commute traffic. It does not load up or overheat. The body is in great shape and is very straight, however, there are a few blemishes and imperfections. Surprisingly few for a car that was built/painted 15(?) years ago. The paint shines with a nice gloss. Cut and buffed. Very few small chips on edges that can easily be touched up and buffed down. No doubt there is a fingernail polish this exact color (Hemi Orange) that would do the job well. The interior is good. Door panels are original and in good shape. The seats are covered in black crushed velvet and are in great shape. The headliner has the original overhead console in great shape. Floor console is also excellent with the original shifter. Original dash, guages, steering wheel, carpet, headliner, seats, seat belts and all. The car will come with a new black carpet set (front and rear). Front suspension is stock. This is a balkhalf car. Rear end is coil-over, 4-link with the original Mopar 8 3/4, narrowed. I am unsure of the gears but they feel like 3:55's. The car has polished aluminum work on the balkhalf in the interior and in the trunk. Very sharp! Top-notch workmanship by Rich Gebhardt. Fuel Cell is large. Probably 12 gallon. Polished and chromed wheelie bars. All glass in the car is excellent, chip and crack-free and, believe it or not, original. All lights, turn signals and blinkers operate as they should. Toggle switches for the fuel pump and 2 electric fans are on a guage panel and all work perfectly. The only thing this car could use is a hood. That's what I was aiming to do before I lost storage for the car. That is the reason I have to sell it. If you're looking for the ultimate Cuda and you want it supercharged, here you go. A few pumps of the gas and a tap of the key and this car starts right up, dead cold. But beware, the RPM's come up the split second you crank it, due to the blower. I mean INSTANT RPM's. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.
Please don't hesitate to make an offer of whatever you feel the car is worth to you. You never know, I may be motivated or in the mood to accept, depending how soon I have to remove the car from the garage. Thank you!
I will accept a $500 deposit within 48 hours of the sale. The balance MUST be paid by bank wire transfer ONLY, and must be completed within 5 days of the sale date (ebay purchase date).

Maserati Levante SUV may be built in Italy after all
Thu, 05 Sep 2013In July Fiat halted its investments in Italy, putting on hold plans for the Maserati Levante SUV to be built at the automaker's flagship factory in Turin. But Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne, whose company owns Maserati, met with unions on Wednesday, and he may announce plans to move forward with production of the SUV at the Mirafiori factory if the CEO and the unions reach an agreement, Bloomberg reports.
Marchionne is reportedly about ready to build new cars at Fiat's largest and oldest factory, on the grounds that 5,300 workers accept extended temporary layoffs through most of next year in a slowing European auto market. If unions don't accept the deal, it's not clear whether Fiat would still consider building the Levante at Mirafiori or not.
The Levante, Maserati's first SUV, is based on the Jeep Grand Cherokee platform, and we reported two years ago that it would be built in Detroit next to its Jeep cousin. Obviously those plans have been altered considerably in the intervening period of time.
FCA is setting a five-year strategy: Here's how the last one played out
Thu, May 31 2018We're slightly more than four years removed from Sergio Marchionne last five-year plan for FCA, a tell-all where the Italian-American automaker divulged its plans for the 2014 through 2018 model years. It was a grand affair, where Sergio told FCA investors that all was right in Auburn Hills, Alfa Romeo and Maserati were making comebacks, and the fifth-gen Dodge Viper received a mid-cycle refresh. You can read every last one of those past predictions right here. We're on our way to Europe to see Sergio's sequel, coming out Friday straight from FCA's Italian headquarters. (Bloomberg reports a plan to expand Jeep and Ram globally, combine Alfa Romeo and Maserati into a single division for an eventual spinoff, and downsizing Fiat and Chrysler. Also, EVs.) But before we arrive in Italy and find out exactly what Marchionne has planned for 2019 through 2023 as his last act as CEO, let's take a minute to tally up the results of his last term based on the same scoresheet we used in 2014. Now, we're only five months into 2018, so much of this — including vehicles like the Ram HD and Jeep Grand Wagoneer — could still debut this year. For those, we'll mark things TBD. We're not going to draw any conclusions or make any objectionable remarks. We're simply going to let the stats speak for themselves.
Maserati bringing a car that "opens up new frontiers" to Paris
Fri, 07 Sep 2012We're not expecting to see a production version of the coming mid-engined Maserati coupe, expected to be named GranSport, for another few years; however, we might see it in concept form in just a few weeks at the Paris Motor Show. Australian site Car Advice got hold of an e-mail Maserati sent to friends of the Trident, and the first of the six cars mentioned is a "world premiere of a car that opens up new frontiers in terms of exclusiveness, performance and style."
Car Advice says it has been told that this will be a concept form of the GranSport, the GranTurismo replacement set to take on the Porsche 911 with ample use of carbon fiber and a 1,200-kilogram (2,600-pound) curb weight or thereabouts. The GranTurismo's 4.7-liter V8 hasn't been ruled out of the engine bay yet according to reports, but rumors persist that it will use the Ferrari-sourced twin-turbo V6 with 442 horsepower running power to the rear wheels through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, and have a 0-60 time of something like four seconds.
We can't see the full content of the e-mail, but among the other five cars that have been announced for the stand are the GranTurismo Sport and GranTurismo MC Stradale. With the 2014 Quattroporte not appearing until the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, the Kubang concept said to be retired before the debut of the production version at the 2014 Detroit show and the Levante still just a wee mule, guesses for the three remaining three would be variations on current models. Not that there's anything wrong with that when it's Maserati we're talking about...
