« on: August 08, 2009 - 11:51:04 PM »
Had to post this photo I took on the way home from a show tonite..

My Cuda outside is on the right and my buddie's Dart is on the left..

Inside the showroom is a '71 340 Cuda, '71 440 Demon & a '69 383 Cuda..

All three cars inside are for sale.....

Yes sir,  early 70's would be nice again.. 
(high school - street racing - .32 gallon or so for gas)

That was a Buhler Dodge in Eatontown N.J.

I am thinking about maybe purchasing the '69 car
It was on original F8 green 340 4spd, now a red 383 4spd...

They may be closer than we think, in some ways anyway.

I saw a brand new Nissan SUV in a parking lot yesterday. It's color was a metallic root beer brown. I have not seen a metallic brown paint job on a new car since around 1980.

I've got some root beer metallic brown on my Cuda. Changes color in different shades of light.

Brings back memories of working a CPD dealership in the early 70's.  Thanks for posting.  I have had a few of my cars back on the show room after getting them done and it was cool but sorry no pic's no digitals back then.
Got a pretty good start on my M46 optioned Barracuda restoration but now it is on hold till I can gather more funds.  Still need a few parts for it.  SIU Graduate 75 AAS Automotive Tech, 94 BS Advanced Tech Studies, 1997 MSED Workforce Education and Development

Theres a place down in Houston that has a lot of old cars like that and it's set up like an old dealer. Its pretty cool.

Here are a few old pictures.  Found these on Flickr.   Not sure of the year these were taken.

My guess would be 1970 for the first two then the last one would be 1961 I think.
