I only recall a thread with all of the hemi cuda convertibles pictured. A friend of mine has one of the nine 70 hemi challenger convertibles. I can find a picture of that one later.

I have pictures of all 71 Hemi Cuda Verts, and quite a few 70 Hemi Cuda verts.  I don't think every single 70 Hemi Challenger Vert has been found.

Well, maybe we should start one now. It looks as though Mecum is selling 2 of the 9 this weekend, one Green , one Plum Crazy.

2 of the 9

9 is approximately how many were made for the US. I have heard of 15 total so far, two are suspected VIN changes & three were built for Canada so far that I know of. I have not heard of any Export models - yet.

For the 13 possible good ones I do not have codes for all of them yet either, so if anyone has any info on any of them that they can pass my way please let me know?

Green one was at $700,000 and bidding at Mecum and then they switched to an Olds 442. Maybe they'll come back to what it went for. Guess the bidding was slowing down too much to keep televising.

edit: Didn't hit reserve. Bidding will continue on it thru till Sunday.

If two of them are screwed to a Hemi Challenger Convertible I could come pick it up so you do not have to mess with shipping.  :bigsmile:


Ha!

Thanks!

I thought I had a good picture of my friends 70 hemi challenger convertible, but I don't. I will get some in 2 weeks at the Ohlone show.

This black hemi Challenger convertible was used back in the day to tow a boat! I'm not sure of its whereabouts today, though IIRC it does still exist!
