It's going to aution.1970 Plymouth Hemi Cuda With Just 81 Original Miles Heading to Auction


How could any one not drive this car? I had a '69 Cuda and drove the hell out of it.


Loved every mile.

 

An interesting find and back story. Thanks for sharing . . .

 

81 original miles,Let me see A quarter mile at a time?? That is 324 trips down the track, Not bad. Lorne

 

Even more than than the quick curvy drives home, I enjoyed many a drive in theater movie stretched out viewing through the back glass of my cousin's S model 64 barracuda.

 

I purchased a 1970 Barracuda special order with a 318 & AT. It took 6 weeks to get the car. The longest 6 weeks in my life. I had 26,000 miles on it in 6 months. When I sold it I had 170,000 miles. Purchased a used 1980 Turbo Trans Am with 12,000 miles. An X girlfriend wrecked it for me. Well, she was an X after that.

 

In the fall of 1969 I ordered a 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T. Took delivery in November 1969 I still have the car today. Lorne

 

Lucky you.


My neighbor's wife drove with a fogged windshield, right into my parked 'Cuda. The idiot pushed it 50 feet before she realized she had hit something. The cops suggested that had I killed her, they would have understood. Seems she had done the very same thing about a month before.


Standing on my neighbor's front yard, viewing the ball metal that used to be my baby, I just cried.


Body shop did the best they could but the car was never right after that. Traded it for my '75 Olds Starfire manual Muncie V/6. Fun car but hardly compares.

 

Let's see some photos!
