1971 Hemi Cuda Convertible- It needs no introduction
I was in awe the first time seeing this car in a magazine and then in person. This article is from MCR Dec 1986, and has had several caretakers since then.

Love the 'cheerfully refused offers of 40 thou' note, when/what did it eventually sell for Steve also reach most recently? You've likely mentioned it all here before but very cool it was the last Hemi Cuda 'Vert!  ~ Pete .

Cheerfully refused 40K but stupidly accepted 54K. LOL
You can see the detail photo of the trunk panel where I drilled holes and installed a "hemicuda" emblem instead of the stick-on "Cuda" emblem. I think it is still on there after all these years. People started thinking it was something the cars were supposed to have after I did that. Kind of like that certain 1970 LS6 Chevelle with the "450/SS" on the bumper pad. :-) I remember that "2-RARE" license plate. I didn't think TOO-RARE was all that hard to figure out til some lady at a carshow seriously asked me if that meant it was half a Ferrari (4-R-A-R-E) ? Last edited by njsteve; 03-25-2023 at 07:59 PM.

And I still have all this stuff in case anyone of you eventually gets the car and wants a cool souvenir broadcast sheet (the car had 4), a dozen framed magazine covers, or two photo albums of reference material of what a 15 year old hemicuda ragtop looked like when I bought it and disassembled it.
