When did you buy your 1st E-body?
« on: August 09, 2008 - 07:03:58 PM »
Are there more newcomers or old timers?

Mine was a '70 'cuda in 1977.

The goal never changes - Stop the 60' timer with your back tires

70 lime green hockey stick 340 'Cuda in 86 or 87, those 2 years are kinda a blur. I do remember every single option it had though. I dug it because there was a 440-6 in town and my car had the rallye dash, 15" rallye's and I remember thinking it was weird that his did not.

1976-78, 70 challenger- 440 magnum, couldn't tell you if it was numbers or not, but man it went.
78-78, cuda drag car, transplanted the challengers motor into it, ran 12.90 to 13.00  with ease. moved, left it with my brother to sell. Never saw a dime though!
82-84, cuda 383 formula-s Lots of fun this one- its the one I wished I had hung onto.
Leave of absence till,
97-present,  70 challenger rt 440-6. Purchased this after failing to purchase a 13,000 mile hemi cuda ($48,000.00 at the time) It was real estate or car! Chose the real estate. Well not quite, my wife did! Bought the Challenger to get even! :bananasmi

This thought may not be politically correct, but is an opinion offered. It may be correct? or it may be wrong? It is not designed to appease those needing shelter from the real world.
