Scalextric Chrysler Plymouth Hemi Cuda 1973 Spa 24 Hours Miss Levi's 1:32 Slot Car

In the 1960s, Chrysler decided to create the Plymouth Barracuda, aiming to develop a more economical vehicle for the everyday man and remain competitive with their rivals, Chevrolet and Ford. This marked the beginning of the muscle pony car era. The name "Cuda" was reserved for the top-performing racing cars built from the third-generation Barracuda, though they shared only one detail.

The Hemi V8 with the shaker hood scoop gave this muscle car a fierce appearance in its competition against other pony cars for the finish line. The Cuda, considered one of the most sought-after muscle cars in the world, refused to compromise its power for emissions, leading to the discontinuation of its production, making it a rare gem.

The Hemi Cuda did, however, find success in the US Trans-Am Series, earning some pole positions. Interestingly, four of these specific cars were raced in Europe for Chrysler France.
