This ones a tough call,as i never was a fan of the fender gills and grill on the 71 Cuda's,plus the way this one sits i'm not huge fan of it's stance ,while i always thought the early T/A's were a hell'va good looking car.The upside is the 440 6 pack would usually outrun the 455 HO Poncho



1971 Plymouth Cuda 440 Six Pack or 1971 Pontiac Trans Am 455 H.O.

I wasn't a big EBody fan, I always rather have the bigger B Bodies.

Yeah, real easy for me too - I owned my 'Cuda for over 11 years, I still miss it to this day.

Nothing luxury about those but tough for it's time and great history.

I still remember my Dad going to buy my first car and took me to look at a '66 Ford Fairlane like that one except it was dark blue with a white interior. It was a 390 4 bbl 4 speed. He ask me what I thought and I told him my uncle (Mom's brother) had a '67 Dodge Monaco station wagon for sale that I'd rather have. He got very upset at me and said there was no way he was buying a station wagon over a sports car and ask me what was wrong with it. I told him I didn't want a Ford (still don't). I ended up getting a '65 Dodge Polara 2 door 383 4 bbl automatic for $300. Still happy with my choice, haven't looked back! LOL

I've had some pretty quick Fords in my time,even had (2) 68 Fairlanes,for awhile as a kid,they were actually pretty decent cars lol. I'm not super brand loyal,hell i even ran AMC's for several years 3 reasons why i'd pick the Chevelle though,they had a full frame,and Chevvies were the easiest to swap engines on,plus you can't beat the price of go-fast goodies for their engines,and that still applies to this day

Restomods seem like they were always easiest on Chevys. Even pre-Internet, you could start with nothing more than a radiator cap and build a complete car around it with an Eckler's catalog and a fat bank account. Radiator cap optional.

Plus, as you say, SBC has been the gold standard for hp/$ ratio for decades.

For what it cost to put an aluminium intake and a set of headers on a Mopar or Ford,you could build a radical all forged small block Chebby,that'd rev to the moon
