I met my girfriend, now wife 28yrs ago in my 70 panther pink 3 speed all #s matching Plymouth Duster. Not an E body but a sweet mopar foresure. Lost the car to life and bills :banghead:  The cars sure do get attention. But i still have my girl, and she is the better deal.

Thanks for all the replies to this thread folks. Some interesting stories. I'll add that I've had young girls admire my car even though its not much to look at for being an older restoration. Anyways, thanks again for those who contributed.  :thumbsup:

Well, the wife was before the car, but you should see all the hookers that hoot and holler when we cruise by.

I saw a girl once while driving in my Barracuda. At least... I think it was a girl. Long hair, driving an 85 Camaro? Hmm... maybe it was Mullet Master Joe. I don't know!   ???

I've had several girlfriends that initiated a relationship based on my current Cuda, so they said. However, it may have just been my ravishing good looks...  :bananasmi

My wife liked my car back in the day but it was a 1970 RAIII GTO Judge.  (White with blue stripes)

She supports my Mopar thing now but she is not into it....

Location, Location, Location!!!! out here in Los Angeles my CUDA gets insane amounts of looks, especially from girls when it's ideling. I've been kicking myself for this but, on my lunch break, a few weeks ago, (I work at a Dodge dealership) I went to a local Panda Express, a group of girls were coming out of a Pat 'n Oscars. They were talking and one of the girls hushed them all, why???? She waited for me to start up the Cuda as soon as I gave a little rev she exhaled. Looked me in the eyes and waved at me and I just smiled at her :faint:

When I met my wife, she had a Chevy S-10 pickup and a 71 Chevelle convertible. I proposed to her and she accepted. I promptly made her get rid of any trace of Chevy that she had, and now she drives only Mopar. A Jeep Liberty to be exact. Go figure. She never did get over the ride I gave her in my 340 Duster. Unfortunately I had to give that up also. She likes the Challenger, but really has no interest. I have mellowed in my old age (40 in May), and she may have the guts to get back in a muscle car with me again. Time will tell. In any event, I cannot wait to see how many chicks dig the Chall when it is finished.  :naughty:

Back in the day..............I gave quite a few rides out with my 64 Sport Fury, it got a lot of attention because of it's looks, sound and I guess the way as a young guy I drove the darn thing,LOL. But as far as the E-bod, that came along many years later and I was already married, so it didn't "help" get me a gal, it did allow me make my wife even more happy. The Chally was bought and restored solely for my sweetheart. Coincidently, she got to bring it home from the body shop on valentines day back in 2001, now how cool is that?

When I first met my wife she was at the local cruise in spot driving her 1971 plum crazy R/T Challenger.
Her dad restored the car and gave it to her as a gift :grinyes:


The wife was,(and still is) drop dead gorgeous and had every guy in the place hitting on her.
They were making complete idiots out of themselves using all the usual BS lines like "I had a car just like yours with a 440 Hemi in it" and My buddy has a Dodge 'Cuda just like that"
I could tell by the expression on her face she was soo sick of the dumb pick up lines and just wanted to be left alone to check out the other cars.
I checked out her car and just smiled at her and said very nice.
At the time I owned my 1970 R/T SE 440 sixpack 4 speed Challenger but that particular night I was driving my work beater(VW Scirocco)
The next weekend I went to the same cruise in spot, (with my Challenger of course) and pulled in right next to the wife's R/T.
Amazingly she remembered me from the previous week and how I didn't make an idiot of myself by giving her some BS pickup line, even though I really DID own a Challenger like her's.
She actually asked me out on a date and we've been together for the last 19 years. :bananasmi
Yes she still owns and drives her 71 R/T Challenger and I actually bought an identical plum crazy 71 R/T Challenger of course mine is faster and has a 4 speed :burnout:.

Now that's a cool story!! Killerbee, are you and your wife going to Carlisle?  She sounds like someone I would really enjoy meeting.  By the way...invite her to join the board!

It is a funny story how I met my wife.  I was with a few of my friends at a local Applebee's restaraunt and one of my buddies was hitting on the waitress and ended up getting her phone number.  A few days later, I was at his house at a party and he called her and she came over.  She was having a great time and she called her 2 roomates to come over.  They said that she was crazy for going to a party to see a guy that she doesn't even know.  Well, her two roomates ended up coming over, to get her, and ended up staying for a while.  One of her roomates was really HOT!!  So I started to talk to her.  She was asking me who's Dodge Truck that was outside.  I told her that it was mine and we ended up going on a date a few weeks later.  Now were married!!  Thank goodness I didn't drive a pinto or something!!  Then, she saw my car and thought that it was cool....because it was a convertible.  Anyways, were happy as ever and it is because mopar brought us together!!!
