You bought it off the showroom floor in 70 That is awesome. Tell us more.
Well, my dad who was an attorney, won a huge lawsuit for a client & because he represented Las Vegas Dodge, too, he decided to get us boys new Dodge economy cars. (not many kids are so fortunate to have their dads buy them a car). We had a paper route to pay for the 60 ford my bro bought from our grandfather, but when dad took us to LV Dodge, I got a red/wht 69 Dart GT & my bro talked my dad into a test driving a Charger R/T that'd just returned from a test drive. Dad said no, but the promise of good grades & varsity football swayed my dad into getting the Charger for my bro.
While Holly was a way @ college, a semi ran a lite & totalled my Dart, so a settlement of $6K was offered & off I went to the Plymouth dealer. Learned really quickly how to drive a 4 spd. It had 3.23's & I remember racing my friend's split window vette on the freeway & burying the speedo @150. (F70 Polyglass tires, probably only rated for 90mph...what a crazy stunt). That CUda was a chick magnet & when we cruised Fremont st, I adjusted the windshield washer squirters to spray 15' behind the car. If I saw some cute girls behind me, I'd squirt em. Got their attention if the Cuda didn't.
Anyway, I put headers on the 383 & cut the hood scoops out. Ended up throwing a rod thru the block & off the car went to auction. Sure wish I had that Cuda now. Got a B5 Ucode auto Cuda, but maybe someday I'll find a Lemon Twist 383 4spd.
