My take on the vote count is simply this:

This is Cuda-Challenger.  There were no first gen Cuda's--they were Barracudas.  The numbers reflect this site.
Ask the same question over on the F.A.B.O. site (For A Bodies Only) and the numbers would be reversed.  Kinda like home field advantage.  :bigsmile:   Just my  :2cents:   :cooldancing:  ....Oldschool

Makes sense, I just though maybe there would be a few more here that had a real soft spot for something other than an E body.  :dunno: Though they are my first love also(the Es) I really love the As
 Maybe I'll go vote over on the A body only site for an E body  :lol:

I've owned just about every year E body...and a few A body barracudas too. I'd like to have one of every year! That said, I think the 70 is my favorite...the original e-body plymouth, just a clean design as stated earlier, the 71 is a little over the top. It's also the first car i owned (70 B'cuda gran coupe), so that plays a part for me.

I voted 1971 although I am usually on the fence.  The ultimate decision, for me, would be choosing between a 1971 Triple Black Hemi Cuda and a Black on Black AAR.

Man.....those 67 thru 69s never get the credit they deserve. They are so bad @ss it's not even funny. I'm still pi$$ed at myself for letting this one get away a few years back.  :banghead:  Could have got it for very little  :money:
Yes that one 68 vote is mine if you couldn't tell  :lol:


Another vote for the 68 here, but that shouldn't come as much of a surprise to most members. :biggrin: :biggrin:


And yes, this poll was done before, and currently resides in the Classic Posts section of the site:
