Now this one is a rag, I think.

I felt the star of the performance-car Americans was a "purple-people-eater" '71 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda convertible. The judges agreed and owner Harold Sullivan of nearby Auburn Hills, Michigan , drove off with its class trophy.

Do I add this one to the list? Some one has told me the orange one is a Canadian export, that sound right Charley? Since you've driven it, lucky guy.

Which one does the owner of the barrett jackson auction own?. I know his is a purple one with a white interior as he had it on one of his shows. He said that it dosent have the right motor but he did find the original one overseas. Is this one of the imports?. Is it a 70 or a 71? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/confused.gif I don't know how old that story was but i remember him saying it was worth about 750k and he would'nt be surprised if these cars soon made the million dollor mark. What i find amazing about these cars was how fast the value of them are going up. It wasent more than 3 years ago that you could buy them for around 500k. It wasent a year ago that they were selling for 1 mill. Now they've doubled in less than a year!!! AMAZING https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/shocked.gif What's the next one zooming to the top? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

Hi Steve, the Hemi rags seem to be into the stratosphere. Don't count the RAIV Judge rags out, while not a Hemi, only 5 made in 69 & 17 in 70! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

Watch out for the 440-6 packs, although i am partial to the 427 Chevy's. The 440-6's will turn some serious torque if you don't over rev them with the old style heavy rods.

What's so special about a hemi convertible? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/tongue.gif

[/ QUOTE ]

Not much, that's why I sold mine. The car had no soul...and it would never run better than a 14.05 at 105 mph. Though I wouldn't mind having it back just to sell it for $2,000,001. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

Theirs a Hemi-Cuda hardtop running 12.0 flat at F.A.S.T. The car is in the "Certified Stock" class. Not F.A.S.T. Amazing what they can run when built and tuned right!

That's plenty of soul for me! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif
