This car needed to have gone to a collector, because just listening to them that doesn’t appreciate the car . I have one my father bought new when he came back from Vietnam.
My father had a 64 and 70 gto convertible in a garage that has been there since 1983. He can't work on them no more and is to attached to let anyone else do anything.
What an amazing find. A Hemi Cuda along with a Challenger R/T convertible and a Roadrunner convertible. The only built 652 Hemi Cudas in 1970. Only 368 were hardtop automatic car. Only 692 383 R/T convertible Challenger. 824 Roadrunner 383 convertibles.
I'm 36now and since the age of about 10-11 a '70 Cuda with a 426 has been my dream even though some family members always said "why would you want that car is a rattle box" .... yes exactly lol to this day 70 cuda, the Volvo p 1800 and Opel GT are my favorite styled cars
People bashing on how they’re stored.... better this way than being in a field under trees rusted out or wrecked. Some people will never be pleased I swear. Besides, they are his cars not ours so he can do whatever he pleases.
Amazing cars. My brother bought a 70 cuda with a 383 that had an engine fire. It was a sublime column auto rubber front bumper hockey stick that was a R code. No one around knew what it was.
Let's add that it pays to be nice to little old ladies. They might have their late husband's Tor Red 440 or triple black 340 'Cuda stashed in a garage or rather large shop building... 😎
"I'm gathering parts for it" is a death sentence for these cars. After the parts gatherer dies, his collection of parts goes to the junkyard along with the car he's using as a storage shelf.
Idk how many times, over the years, that I've heard the old "I'm gonna fix it up someday". And like you said, more often than not, that's a death sentence for the car in question
We all think we have all the time in the world to collect parts for a project, then one day we're old and realize our time is running out. The mind thinks we can still do as we did when we were much younger.
Reminds me of the Detroit legend..Some may know just what I'm referring to what a great story.Sleeper really,meaning it went as fast as it came they found in Prestine condition his son obtained the car
@granthoule7418 he was supposed to keep it but he didn't sold it at auction and they also proved it was nothing but a made up story just to make it seem to be more than it was
Danny seems cool and everyone else making wise cracks at him $2000 in 78 was ALOT of money. Just wonder why Danny never dropped the 426 in the ole girl and tore Memphis up...Rip brotha Danny
I still Can't Believe these cars are still popping up every where i just naturally assume always things are "Picked Over" and everything is Dried up but apparently not!
I had a black 72 Challenger 340 Ralley (I think I spelled that correctly) that I bought in 84. It had W2 race heads and a 727. I wanted to buy a Cuda or Barracude but they were very rare and expensive if you could find one. I did find a 440 Cuda with a stick but the car was hammered with a twisted frame from hard launches. I sold the Challenger 5 years later for $3500. For me the Hemi Cuda was the ultimate muscle car until I took a brand new 04 Mustang Cobra off the dealer's lot for $34000. From then on, the Cude took a back seat to the Terminator. Most fun car I've ever driven, expect those cars to fetch a pretty penny I heard 2 sold at auction for over $100,000. With a blown 4.6 and 6 speed it will wipe the floor with the Cuda with just a few mild mods. Still love the Cuda but the handling of those old muscle cars was frightening 😮 Glad this piece of history is going to a good home, it actually looked to be in pretty good shape considering
@@AutoArchaeology A W2 conversion was very expensive, even the rocker arms needed to be replaced due to the valve placement. Despite the E body's shortcomings, I loved that black Challenger, it just personified the term "evil". I wish it had a 4 speed but maybe it was for the better as you didn't want to take your right hand off that steering wheel 😯
@@AutoArchaeology Yep we ordered it thru a small local dealer and he picked it up in July of 1970. It is just sitting with the Hemi out waiting for a basic refresh. No intentions to sell. No way to post a picture here.
Similar to my friend Ron’s ‘69 hemi 500 Charger. Spun a rod bearing in ‘72 with under 10k miles, and the car sat ever since. The resto took over a decade, with Ron bringing a mutual friend cash every month to work on it. It was finally finished a couple years ago, and Ron sold it, as he retired.
He looks like a someday kind of guy. 25 years from now you'll be doing a video on my 06 mustang that's been sitting in a garage for 40 years, but it will be complete with no rust. assuming i don't live more than 25 years and my wife quickly sells it. If that car was garaged since 78 then it's first 10 years of life were hard!
I raced a 70 Hemi Cuda with my 66 Mustang Shelby. We ran head to head for 2 miles until we both went airborne from a huge hill. Last I saw the Cuda, my car was 10’ in the air and the Cuda crashed into a Kentucky Fried Chicken. It was 1:00am so no one was inside the building.
@@AutoArchaeology I came out OK but the Mustang’s suspension and engine block was damaged. I don’t know about the other guy. I know his Cuda was probably trashed because he was headed for the KFC’s brick wall and was a good 8’ off the ground. I heard him crash but I was busy with my own problems. The road curved on the backside of the hill so when I came down I had flown over the medium and landed on the on-coming traffic side. He had been on the left of me so he didn’t land on the road. I grew up during the whole muscle car era so I know what we thought were true muscle cars versus “show cars”. Dodge / Plymouth has some pretty fast cars back then but every lusted after Vettes and Chevelles. They weretop tier and Camaros, Firebirds, Roadrunners, Cudas and Mustangs were next level down. Then you get into Chargers, Roadrunners, Super Bees, etc. It was a very distinct pecking order. Glass packs, Hurst shifters, Holly carbs added a little more prestige.
@@edpinkerton7947 I paid 2500 for. Superbird in 81. Engine had rod knocking and needed a repaint . At the same time in out large weekly statewide classified paper, was a very nice 70 hemi GTX for the same price. Hemi challenger I got to ride in was for sale for 1700 when I was in high school. At that time a 383 B body generally could be bought for 800, so a hemi car was over twice that.
Looks like my garage (1970 Cuda with a 426 pistol grip for speed not original in pieces, 1970 Challenger 383 Auto, 84 Corvette, 2006 Dodge Ram SRT10; last year Dodge Ram SRT 10, 2003 HEMI Dodge Ram first-year Gen 2 Hemi)
I read all these comments knocking these guys that have held onto these things over the years and gathered parts. EVERYONE seems to be better equipped to deal with one of these old cars and EVERYONE seems to think that all these cars are living out some death sentence... I am betting not a single one of these people commenting could hold onto it a couple of years without selling it off. YES , it takes years sometimes to gather everything for one of these types of cars. YES its a chore just to live your life and deal with all that comes your way and have this car and all its parts in tow (If you only have one car) at the same time you are resisting the temptation of folks like Dennis Collins and the like who are only messing with any of them to turn a dime . A car salesman is a car salesman , period... How much money do you have to throw at a car people ? Just to give you a small idea if what the costs are involved in restoring a high end classic. I just added up what it cost me to do the doors on my R code MACH1 . This is new parts and not all Ford parts and I am approaching 7K on just the two doors and related hardware... These arent the types of cars you throw some junk at so you have this running abomination... Its not Roadkill.... I have a few mustangs and I am that guy right there... You all would have the same things to say. Ive been housing these things for 30 years now gathering parts . Give it s shot. House the things , worry about them like they are one of your children. Buy every part you can find thats suitable for this type of car . At the same time work a job , raise kids , pay bills try to enjoy your life . Justify to your wife you are spending 7K on a set of doors for a car thats in the garage that wont even run after you have all that handled ... Most of you dudes are so nutless you cant even buy a high end car at all. You have to come on youtube and dream and bad mouth the old guys that did manage to hang onto them. Im not a Dodge guy by any means and I respect what this guy has done over the years... I appreciate that he has held onto it and was a good steward while it was in his hands...I could care less if he finished it. Its all there and it survived the sharks and bottom feeders... This is real life people , not Television.... YES , I worked in TV and I worked those shows for that network... I know the difference very well...
Nice find but only for the chassis and body. Indeed without engine this Hemi Cuda is not anymore one.... Doesn't matter what the VIN said, this is just a Cuda Now. However awesome story.
@@AutoArchaeology I would so happy to got " just " a 1970 Hemi, as you said. Far more the R stamped on the VIN plate's car without engine lol. What makes a car authentic are all those original features. If only one of these elements is missing, the car no longer match with the VIN. Neither more nor less, it's no more complicated than that. And am pretty sure that 95% of mopar owners share my advice. Let's see some weeks how many " Like " I'll have on this com in the futur to be convinced.
Nice. But I caught an error. No such thing as an am/fm 8 track on an E body. Am 8 track only. Code r22, which also came with 3 front speakers. This one has the optional rear speakers as well. We can tell by the fader switch on the dash. O
If I ever get a rare muscle car . I'll make sure I use it for a dumpster to bring the value up before I die so my kids will eat McDonald's for the rest of their life
Sad how people just let time and rodents let a car just rot away. I had a 70 440+6 4 speed cuda" back in the the 70s and sure wish I still had it. When I sold mine in 78 it was just another used car and not worth a whole lot. Nobody could have seen these cars ever being worth anything today because back during the gas shortage these muscle cars you couldn't give them away. Hope the driving lights came with it. What did you guys pay for it?
Sadly, the man is never going to do it. Look at all other parts and cars he's hoarding. His weight. He's done. I've seen it hundreds of times.This car will go to a flipper for far less then its worth. Hopefully an enthusiast will restore it right.
That car needs to be taken apart bolt by screw and totally redone .... is it possible. Will this car ever look Road worthy again? You gotta let us know
Honestly I don’t know the ‘Cuda. I own a 1968 Charger, two Plymouth Dusters one with a 340 and the other with a 360. And I have a 1970 Road Runner 383 air grabber with 4 speed pistol grip. I’m 50 years old. I bought my 1st Mopar 1971 Duster when I was 17 for 900 dollars off an old lady who didn’t realize a 20 year old car at the time was worth 20,000. I still have the Duster and it’s been appraised for $55,000. It’s a 340 4 speed bucket seats .. I have had it repainted with the 340 and strip package as the paint job on it was faded over the years. My Charger is the track Cat. It’s a 440 magnum dual quad tunnel ram , hurst 4 speed and a 4.10 rear. It does 11 sometimes 12 seconds on a bad day at about 140/5 mph.
These people should receive whatever medal & recognition available to them for having the foresight to save these rare Mopars.
Yeah yeah they are stored away & unfinished, but who gives a damn, they saved them, for someone with the money to reborn them.
Thank you for saving history
Yup, they did save them for the future. You are right
He scored a HEMI 'Cuda AND won the lottery! Lucky Bastard!!!
And wait, there's more!
All I can say is thank the man for keeping them inside and someone can have an easy job of fixing them 😍😍👍👍👍
Thats the way id like to walk into my garage. A roadrunner a convertible challenger and a Cuda. Someone is a very lucky person
I agree Andres
Absolutely! And I have a few other beautys I'd love to add to it while we're at it! Lovely!
This car needed to have gone to a collector, because just listening to them that doesn’t appreciate the car . I have one my father bought new when he came back from Vietnam.

Safe and sound in dry storage until the next person enjoys them?
What an amazing find. A Hemi Cuda along with a Challenger R/T convertible and a Roadrunner convertible. The only built 652 Hemi Cudas in 1970. Only 368 were hardtop automatic car. Only 692 383 R/T convertible Challenger. 824 Roadrunner 383 convertibles.
Yup, that's why I drove 9 hours to check them out!
So glad someone discovered these gems I appreciate his love for them but I hate to see them like this everyone please help them find a good home

3x black
4x Black. Black paint, black interior, black vinyl top, black bumpers

$300,000 PLUS is what the experts are saying. Even without the numbers matching hemi!
What about the roadrunner 🤷🏻♂️ for sale?
That Road Runner is not for sale. There is two 69 RR Verts coming up for sale though.
How does this happen? Incredible stuff my guy
That guy is like me. They won't steal it if they have to look for it, takes too much TIME.
Talk about junk hoarding , at least it's the right stuff , but what a way to not store things , but it's under cover at least !

If I ever get a rare muscle car . I'll make sure I use it for a dumpster to bring the value up before I die so my kids will eat McDonald's for the rest of their life
They will have a very short life then!
How can I get a hoof you if it’s for sale
Very cool! How much will the Cuda be with the hemi engine! Are there enough good parts to complete it?
Not sure, it's a very rare combo.

Nope, it sold to a new home. Now it's going to be put together and sold again.

I had a 70 440+6 4 speed cuda" back in the the 70s and sure wish I still had it.
When I sold mine in 78 it was just another used car and not worth a whole lot.
Nobody could have seen these cars ever being worth anything today because back during the gas shortage these muscle cars you couldn't give them away.
Hope the driving lights came with it. What did you guys pay for it?
Yup, that's when this guy picked them up for next to nothing!
Sadly, the man is never going to do it. Look at all other parts and cars he's hoarding. His weight. He's done. I've seen it hundreds of times.This car will go to a flipper for far less then its worth. Hopefully an enthusiast will restore it right.
It is going to be restored
😉👍👌🖖
Is it for sale
Not anymore, sorry
That car needs to be taken apart bolt by screw and totally redone .... is it possible. Will this car ever look Road worthy again? You gotta let us know
Man, you really don't know shit about these old muscle cars do you!!
Honestly I don’t know the ‘Cuda. I own a 1968 Charger, two Plymouth Dusters one with a 340 and the other with a 360. And I have a 1970 Road Runner 383 air grabber with 4 speed pistol grip. I’m 50 years old. I bought my 1st Mopar 1971 Duster when I was 17 for 900 dollars off an old lady who didn’t realize a 20 year old car at the time was worth 20,000. I still have the Duster and it’s been appraised for $55,000. It’s a 340 4 speed bucket seats .. I have had it repainted with the 340 and strip package as the paint job on it was faded over the years. My Charger is the track Cat. It’s a 440 magnum dual quad tunnel ram , hurst 4 speed and a 4.10 rear. It does 11 sometimes 12 seconds on a bad day at about 140/5 mph.
@@robcicero8746 Track cat?? Do you mean scat pack?? Good grief. Appears you don't know mopar period!!
@@robcicero8746 Also, the charger never came with a 440 and 2 carbs!
When can I bid.
No auction, the owners info is in the description
I want to find an absolutely barn charger
They are out there.
What happened to hemi cuda?
I'll actually have a video on that for Monday!
What's the point of buying all this stuff and never doing anything with it. Just another form of hoarding.
Well now everything but three cars is moving on.
Same car in Phantasm.
Pretty close
Phantasm was a 1971, 340 car.
WRONG, 71.
