Just finished watching Monster garage and Jesse James has a 71 cuda, 440, bilboars, black steelies. Then right after that the guy from Miami Ink had a 70 hemi convertible...also red.

Fantasm III had the triple black hemi convertible didn't it? I used to rent that when I was younger at least every other month cuz I like the car.

I saw this movie a little while ago, cant remember the name but the main character drove an orange '70 charger, with chrome bowling-ball hubcaps, like the ones on KITT from knightrider (except these ones were chrome).

In the film "Radio" I saw the tail of a 2nd gen barracuda fastback.

This goes way back but I think they had a E-body vert on the Mod Squad TV show.  At the end of one season they trashed their Woody and showed up with the E-body the next season.

Hay Dave, the guy from Miami Ink has a 72, 340 Cuda coupe. How did you confuse that for a 70 Hemi convertible? :clueless:

I went and watched "Lucky Number Sleven" last night and there is a scene that takes place in the 70's at a horse racing track.  In the parking lot there are a ton of smokin' hot muscle cars and right in the middle is a red 70 Challenger.  Unfortunatly they are all parked and don't move.
