It was a story about cuda's and challengers . . . nicely done too!  I was surprised that the yellow hemi cuda didn't have racing mirrors??  No mirror on the passenger side.   :screwy:

Did you also notice that the hemicuda is a column shift car?  I wondered about the mirrors also - the '70 R/T I just bought only has a chrome, driver's side mirror, but mine is at least the remote mirror.  The one on the hemicuda must be just the base mirror assembly.  I burned the show to DVD, so I could at least keep a copy of it for reference.

They showed more of that yellow 'CUDA that appears at the end of every show doing the peelout.
Looking at the seatbelts I think it's a '74  :2thumbs:

my fav line was the guy talking about his Hemi-cuda
said he drove up by a guy in a ...(Fararri?) looked at the guy and said "Don't even think about it buddy".

Guy kinda had me rolling.

I watched that too,, was nicely done, stuck mostly to the 70  models touched briefly on 71, Was really hoping it would have covered thru 74.  Overall was a good show, and I did like the guy telling the Ferarri to dont even think about it,,,, :burnout:

Not sure on what year Ferrari but my Mopar love to the side in all reality the Ferrari would have probably walked all over the Hemi.  :P

              I love European cars also but in a quarter mile my moneys on the hemi unless you are talking about something super exotic and super high dollar
i.e ( ferrari F-40, F-50, Enzo, Mclaren F1, Bugatti Veyron,or Masserati MC12) the smallest engine in that group is a twin turbo V-8; so the Hemi is in an distinguished group which is not bad at all!!
