71 Hemi GTX & 70 440/6 Coronet vert at BJ

[Tracker1]

I am wondering how Mr. Torino is feeling today. All his cars were absolutely stolen out from under him. 72k for an FC7 71 6bbl 'Cuda - wow. My wife and I were watching it as it was slow to even get there and I said...&quot;Ummm,....&quot; She simply said &quot;No way.&quot; she knew what i was thinking, had the phone in my hand [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

Ya, they couldve been a re-body.... Mustve been a GM crowd, nice job on the carpark deal though!

They weren't rebodies. These were known cars. Like I said, I remember both of them from at least 25-30 years ago. They were both in really nice shape back then. I'll dig through the photo album and try to post some of the old photos form the archive.

Uh, it's kind of hard to rebody a mopar. It would be a whole mew car! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/shocked.gif[/img]

That was the ultimate &quot;Buy One, Get One Free&quot; sale of the century. </div></div>

That doesn't surprise me at all. What an amazing buy.

Here's that same 1970 Coronet R/T 6-pack four speed ragtop back in 1984 at the Northeast Hemi Owners' Association meet in Chicopee, Mass.

dont be fooled. theres a lot of road runners out there with satellite bodies on them. and a few of the supposedly original hemi A-bodies arent so original as they would have you think.

My 'rebody' comments were more a slant on the #9 ZL1 chit-chat going on...

I wonder which car the guy decided to sell? Surely you'd keep the 71 Hemi? maybe??

cheers Dave

I would have kept the ragtop. Nothing runs like a 440 sixpack with a stick. That love it or hate it bodystyle grows on you.

These are the two, correct?
