Car of the Week: 1974 Pymouth Cuda
February 03, 2010. By Brian Earnest
Bob Nizza can’t help but laugh when he considers the odds of ever actually owning “the car I really wanted.”“Since I was a kid, I always wanted the rarest muscle car on the planet — the one that was worth the most. And that was the Plymouth Hemi ‘Cuda,” chuckled the Valley Stream, Long Island, resident. “But those cars bring six, seven figures. That just wasn’t gonna happen!”Turns out, after spending the last 36 years with his superbly preserved 1974 ’Cuda, Nizza actually did wind up with his “seven-figure car,” even if all those zeroes only fall in the intrinsic value ledger.“My friends all laugh at me, but I wouldn’t ever sell this car. I wouldn’t sell this car for a million dollars,” Nizza proclaimed. “It means everything to me. It got me through the tough times and was part of all the good times. No matter what, I could always go for a ride and put it back in my garage.“And everybody in my neighborhood always knew the car!”
