Death of a 1971 Hemi Cuda
October 31st 1986
Date: October 31st 1986
The place: Cedar Rapids, Iowa
A factory original 1971 Hemi Cuda 1 of 108 bites the dust, taking out a light pole on 1st ave. The car was subsequently, stripped, parted out, and taken to Katz salvage in Marion Iowa, where it was crushed. Sad day for sure.
That 1971 Hemi Cuda was the inspiration for the building of MRN13GSS001KC a Mr. Norm's Kenne Bell Supercharged King Cuda, that through a strange twist of fate, became the last fully licensed, commissioned, GSS Supercar built, that was personally signed by Mr. Norm before his untimely passing.
RIP to my 71' Hemi Cuda, and RIP to the Legendary Mr. Norm.
