Since I have a Challenger , which is hands down the best looking muscle car ever, I will go one further than your swap meet pal....ALL Cudas are butt ugly   :poopoke: It is no wonder they brought back the Challenger    :stirpot: :stirpot:

I like Barracudas just fine. They are just a little too short for me.  :icon16:

You should have offered to buy the guy a set of glasses. The 71 is the pentacle of the Cuda line. They just don't get any better. Sorry 70,72,73 and 74 guys they are all a close second but the 71 is truly the best. But for Challengers I think the 70 was the top dog.  Of course that is just my .02 worth.

 Man are you guys all fired up,I love it! I dig all e-bodies but after owning a few different ones, this is the only one that grins at me every time I open the garage.Damn that front end looks ready to get down even needing a full resto! I grew up with my uncle owning  a mini e-body scrap yard next to our muffler shop and I was the kid ripping parts off them and the 71`s were not allowed to be touched.
I will finish a project.I will finish a project. I will finish a project.

:iagree:Wouldnt say no to being given any Cuda,but when it came to buying one myself it had to be a 71.
