The auction web site at the bottom of that page comes back as an attack page through my virus stuff.

Interesting color combo.  Wish the interior was white and the top white.  Still pretty cool.

Here is the car - it's a '71 340 auto R/T. Obviously the car is EW3 white but what is not so obvious is the V6W white R/T stripes - they are virtually invisible (at least to me) but the ad says that they are there. Never could figure out why someone would order a car where the stripes are the same color as the body but apparently people did

The car is well known as it has been for sale a few times and was in a few magazines. All the pics I have of the car that clearly show the stripe are too big to be posted here. One of my rare stripe Challengers is white with white stripes also. It's a '70 EW1/V9W A66. Needs a total resto.

KA try a picture resizer like http://picresize.com/ and shrink those pics down to a manageable size and post 'em up. Sure would like to see the detail of that white on white stripe of that '71 Chally R/T.

From the background you can tell that this is Steve Juliano's place and this is his uber-rare '71 Hemi Challenger R/T with a M51 sunroof.

But that is not why I posted it here.

What is bugging me is that I am trying to figure out just what color it is :dunno: To me it looks orange, like EK2 Go Mango orange, but Go Mango wasn't an available color in '71 (as far as I know). Maybe it's the light? Fluorescent light causes colors to appear differently than they do in natural light. The '71 Cuda in the background looks like it is FE5 Rallye Red to me, so maybe the Challenger is EV2 Hemi Orange :dunno: It almost looks too "orangey" to be EV2. Maybe it was a special order color or something :dunno: What do you think? Anyone ever see it in person out in natural light, or have a pic of it's FT?

I'd rock that!  Can't be too many in that color combo.

Here is an interesting '70 Cuda currently on ebay here:  http://www.ebay.com/itm/Plymouth-Barracuda-CUDA-/291440781025?forcerrptr=true&hash=item43db3966e1&item=291440781025 



This car has a lot of cool features to it. The most obvious thing is the High-Impact FM3 Moulin Rouge paint! Now that's "High-Impact!" The Moulin Rouge paint is accented by a black vinyl roof and a black hockey stick stripe. I like it!

The interesting part is in the pic of the fender tag. On it we can see that the car was not originally coded for a hockey stick stripe but instead it was coded for a V4X black strobe stripes - how cool is that?! :thumbsup:



The fender tag also shows a very unusual "V08" code which comes back as a "paint, trim, vinyl roof, edit waiver"?? :dunno: Not sure what that's about?? :clueless: But the fender tag also shows this car as having the A67 rear window louver package! :thumbsup:

FM3 Moulin Rouge paint ... V4X black strobe stripes ... A67 rear window louver package ... this is one very cool Cuda! :cooldancing: And as "Siskel and Ebert" would say ... I give it  :2thumbs:
