New member long time owner
« on: December 22, 2008 - 10:36:34 PM »
Hi, great site. Here is a couple of pics of my '70 440-6/auto. It's #'s matching with 66,000 miles. The sheet metal is all original and it's only repaint is from the early 80's. I had the car since about 1988. Came close to selling it a couple times, I'm sure glad I never did. These pictures are from about 3 years ago. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all.

Bench seat and Shaker make a great combo

WOW,
What a nice car. I've never seen a 'Cuda with a split bench!! Didn't even know they existed. I am always learning something on this site!! Glad you kept the car. I let an original 383 '70 'Cuda go back in '90 and have always regretted it!! Welcome to the site!! Stick around and become family!! :bigsmile:

Very nice car for sure.  Brings back memories of my 440-6.  Not seen too many bench seats for sure.  Welcome to the site.  You will find a really good group of people here as you get to know them.  Thanks for sharing your pictures....   Gordon

Your insurance is going to skyrocket when that young MOPAR fanatic gets big enough to touch the pedals.  Great to see a bench seat.  Remember when people drove their kids around while they were sitting on that "seat"?  Welcome to the site.   :2thumbs:
