i'd hate to have to get rid of those two.

 

Best cars I ever owned. I drove to CA from Miami with the Roadrunner. Was here 4 months when some drunk kid in a beat up Chevy plowed into it while parked outside a friend's house. Hit it so hard he bent the leaf springs over and put the trunk in the back seat. Totalled. The 'Cuda I bought in '79 for my ex-wife. Paid $1,550 for it. Kept it after the divorce and sold it in '85 for $1,500. Put nothing but tires, batteries and tuneups into it in those 6 years. Had a 340 engine and was a screamer. I would have kept it, but it was originally a Michigan car and was starting to rust underneath from the road salt. Decided I'd rather put money into the Power Wagon. Definitely two of the best vehicles of their era. The Roadrunner used to turn heads like crazy and the hot rod cruising scene was still in full swing when I moved here. I cried when I lost her.

 

i bet. that's how i would react if i ever get my 73 stingray, and lose it.

 

you guys have any pics of the classics?

 

Check my garage for the Roadrunner. Working on putting some of the 'Cuda in there.

 

man, i can see why you were a little upset. whatever happened to Plymouth, they used to have some awesome cars.

 

personally i like the 69 shelby gt 500 aka "Elenor"

but at the same time id love to own a duster with a 440.

 

The Eleanor is not a real GT500. Doesn't have the dual hood scoops and the inside lights do not belong there. Besides...the Boss 429 is where its at. As well as the Plymouth Superbird.

 

ture that, but you knew what i was talking about though, lol. and yes i agree on the 429, but you cant forget about the 427 hemi. boy would i love to get my hands on one of those. you have no idea how quick id rip out my 318 for a 427.

 

Miami, that is a sick car...is that the original paint?
