Steering column update, 1970 Cuda 392 Hemi
Thanks for checking out our channel Mr Cuda! My first car was a 1974 Cuda and now my son and I own this 1970 Barracuda that was passed down in the family. Ever since my first Mopar I have always been a Plymouth Cuda fan. From my early days I always wanted to make a resto mod type car. When the 1970 barracuda was passed down to me I was in the beginning stages of restoring the 1974 but I decided to sell the body of the car. At that time I saved a lot of the parts from the 1974 Cuda to help with this resto mod on the 1970 Barracuda. This 1970 Barracuda is a Gran Coup 318 car and sometime in the 90s the engine was swapped. It has also been well used and a road warrior that has seen its fair share of fender benders. The car has been repaired but not a perfect car. This car is a great platform for the Gen III Hemi swap and since we have so many Cuda parts to help make a transformation this will become a 1970 Cuda resto Mod. I want to document the process for myself and my son, but also share with anyone interested in these types of muscle car transformations.
The 1970 Barracuda steering column uses a rod attached to the transmission for the steering lockout. Since we have all the 1974 Cuda parts we decided to use the 1974 column in our restoration. The 1974 column uses a collar with a finger latch to actuate the lock collar. Here is a short video of the finished rebuild of our steering column.
We used Cuda Cody as a reference when painting and rebuilding the column. Even though we did not use the correct paint we got it close.
