My Old 440+6 Cuda Ragtop sold again at Mecum

This is the one I found in 1987 with 19,000 miles and then sold to Steve Julaino in 1988. Completely untouched drivetrain that ran like a monster when I had it. (I think that was the last time it ever drove on the street in past 35 years?).
$1,1,00,000. I just watched the footage and it looks like the winning bidder was Kevin Suydam. Can anyone verify that? He used to own my old 1971 yellow hemicuda ragtop. Kevin was a nice guy and it would be great if he did buy it so maybe I can reunite the restoration photo album with the car now. https://www.mecum.com/lots/CA0822-52...a-convertible/ |
----Just looked at the pics and I'm betting that you set the stance as it's perfect IMO!....Bill S

Bummer. He's a nice guy.
Well, here's a photo from when it was just a used car in the snow in Ohio. |
That car was cooler when it had all the candy, I'm embarrassed to admit.
|
Steve did you realize the rarity of the car when you had it in 87?
|
Yup. It was one of 12 440+6 automatics. I also had a one of 5, 4-speed 440+6 cuda ragtop as well. And a 1 of 7 hemi ragtop. All within a three year span. It was a fun time back in the day.
I was a thousandaire so I could afford them at the time. LOL |
Oh, you've owned two, and this one isn't the Mafia car?

The Miami Vice car that was once sold by a Miami drug dealer and then stolen back and the driven into the ocean during a police chase, or something crazy like that: the most optioned one built: two full fender tags of options including body colored bumpers, spoilers, factory billboard stripes, leather interior, super track pack, 4-speed and born-with drivetrain. One of 5. I bought it in pieces in Miami in 1984 and had it finished by 1985 and it had its debut at the 1985 Mopar Nationals.
Now owned by a collector up in Rochester NY, last I heard. |
