In 1975, the owner suffered from a traumatic brain injury that took away his ability to ever drive again. He decided to stow his pride-and-joy Plymouth on his father’s farm long-term; the risk of damage from moisture or other environmental hazards led him to ensure this was done the right way.
That meant draining all the fluids from the ‘Cuda, applying several heavy layers of undercoating all over the chassis and in the trunk and engine bay, and even painting the front and rear lower valances in a protective black finish. Around 1979 or 1980, it was towed from the farm to a U-Haul storage locker. It wouldn’t move again until 2024 when the owner's transfer to long term care earlier this year required his ’71 ’Cuda liquidated to cover those costs.
this is a result of sitting in one place, for 5 decades... the rust off the exhaust fell onto the floor and left it's perfect outline
