He said he had to because he was working half the time and gas was twice the price, he worked at a gas station. He still regrets it though. My other uncle had a 1967 GTO that was totalled by a 1971 Charger R/T. Another uncle had a 1971 Charger R/T 440-6 4 speed. He bought it from a used car lot and only one carb worked and the tranny had sawdust in it.

No, the one with the Duster now has a 56 Belair. The one with the 66 GTO now has a 1971 Vette. The other one with the 1971 Charger has a Tahoe. My dad has a 97 Mustang.

Did you ever do any research to see if his Cuda is still around? We lived in N.J. in 1974 when my Dad sold his '68 Charger. It took me a few years but I recently got a lead that his car is now in Maine. If I hadn't found the original invoice with the VIN on it I probably wouldn't have got this far.
