The Cuda was given to Nash by his brother, Bobby, when Bobby went to Vietnam. It is a '70 Plymouth Hemi Barracuda, with a 426 engine. Very much a muscle car!!! The color is known as Lemon Twist. There were only 14 of these models made. Isn't Nash lucky?
As a point of fact, none of the car actors that play the Cuda on Nash Bridges are actually Hemi Cudas.
