70 HEMI 'CUDA " THE MOST SAUGHT AFTER OF ALL !! "

From 1966-71, Dodge stuffed their massive Hemi into the small E-Body platform and the 1970 Hemi 'Cuda is widely accepted as one of the most saught after of these. Only 652 were built when new, including 14 rare convertibles, making an original Hemi 'Cuda a rare sight. The Hemi 'Cuda was forced in scarcity due to the extra $900 it cost to build one-nearly a third of the standard purchase price. At $250, the 390 bhp 440 V8 became the norm and made the Hemi Cuda an exception. Motor Trend tested the 426 Hemi ’Cuda in their May 1970 issue, reaching 0-60 in 5.8 seconds and the 1/4 mile in 14 seconds at 102 mph. The long list of options made available for 1970 Barracudas included such goodies as a Track Pak with a 3.54:1 differential ratio, Rallye wheels, a range of exciting colors including Plum Crazy, pistol grip shifters, hockey stick sport stripes, hood pins and a variety of creature comforts. Of all the options, the R-code steet Hemi 426 was the most legendary Mopar engine. It typically delivered 425 bhp through the solid 727 Torqueflight automatic and a 3.55:1 Sure Grip rear axle. That is, unless the car was one of the 284 that got a 4-speed manual. With their classic shape, tire-shredding American power, limited production and huge popularity a 1970 Hemi 'Cuda can easily fetch over $150 000 USD. This is a remarkable amount for a car with the same build quailty as a mass-produced Plymouth. However, the aggressive sound of Hemi combined with visual street cred and Barrett-Jackson publicity now make these Cudas more expensive than most Ferraris produced in the same era. Changes for 1971 were minimal and included a more complex 6 inlet grille design and fender gill louvers. Only 100 or so of these were built and the seven ultra-rare 1971 convertibles are the most expensive muscle cars money can buy. In 72, the government and EPA kicked the muscle car in the ass with emissions regulations. After that time, no more Hemi or more big block models could be ordered

N2A Motors Z06 Chevrolet "789" 1957 1958 1959 Innovation beyond your expectation...





1) The 789 is built of fiber glass and carbon fiber composites on the C6 Corvette 2005-2008 Convertible, Coupe, and ZO6 platform.

2) The body of the Corvette is all removed except for the doors and new body parts installed. The doors are skinned with a new outer skin.

3) The seats have new inserts to color coordinate with the exterior colors.

4) Everything except for the body remains Corvette.

5) It is up to the customer to provide the C6 Corvette 2005-2008 of their choice (Coupe, Convertible, and ZO6) referred to as the donor car. We are set up with a local dealer here in southern California that will sell new corvette coupes and convertibles to our customers for $500.00 over invoice for the 789 conversion only.

6) The 789 is built upon order only, the cost of the 789 conversion is $75,000.00 including a $2,000.00 wheel and tire allowance. This does not include the C6 Corvette donor car. With the donor C6 Corvette at a price of around $ 60.000.00 for a 07 – 08 convertible and the conversion cost of the 789 at $75,000.00 the total cost of the 789 would be around $135,000.00.

7) To start with, a letter of intent (we provide) needs to be filled out, signed, and a $10,000.00 deposit check sent that holds a spot in the line of production. The $10,000.00 goes into an escrow account that is fully refundable should you choose to withdraw before production of the 789 begins. Once the donor car is received a contract will be signed and a first installment of $15,000.00 to go with the $10,000.00 already received will be required to begin (12 to 14 week) production of your 789. Half way through production the second installment of $25,000.00 will be asked for to continue production and the balance of $25,000.00 will be due upon delivery. The delivery of the donor car to n2a Motors and the 789 converted C6 Corvettes from n2a Motors back to customer is the responsibility of the customer. N2a Motors can help in connecting customer with a reputable transporter.

8) We started production of the first 789 orders back in June of this year; we are well on our way in producing up to 150 units with in the next three years.

9) Very unique, each 789 will be deferent, no two will be alike. Once a color or color combination has been selected it will not be duplicated.

10) The C6 Corvette comes in Coupe (with Targa top), Convertible, and ZO6 Coupe (no Targa top, it is fixed). Everything under the new 789 body is C6 Corvette from front to back the trunk space is the same as comes in the Corvette.
