guess what i drove today?
« on: November 05, 2005 - 01:41:51 PM »
A '74 cuda 440 4 speed! I saw it at a car dealer on my way home from work today.  Thay wanted $16,000!!! it's  was really worth only $8-10,000. cuz it needed a trunk, qurts,panit... I looked over the whole car for ever, and then the salesmen said, " wan'a driver her?" I calmly said, " sure, i guess" But i was screaming with joy inside! It was the greatest thing ever! im really at a lose for words. The car was red with a black top and int. It needed a lot of work, but its the "$barracuda$" name that sells it. im still shaking!

No he was set on $16,000. It was a $ 7,000 car easy. It needed alot of work. had rust bubbles all over the rear of it and undr the vinyl top. The sales men said it's not that bad. Then i told him that i was a body man and he shut up.

Sweet!!!!  The best I've done was drive my tired '69 Charger 318 around our block once.  Even that was a blast churping them around every corner.  I couldn't imagine driving a 440 4 speed.
