The sound of that Winchester Gray hemicuda, when it drove in at the beginning of the video.... The best exhaust sound ever.
Happy to read you appreciate the sounds of the Hemi Cuda :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing.
The “rubber” bumpers are called elastomeric! There is literally several million dollars in cars in there!
Hi theoriginalmungaman, Thank you for viewing and sharing your knowledge. Hope you see many more cars on this RUclips Channel you enjoy. Lou
Wow, what a Cuda collection. It's Cuda heaven.
Glad you enjoy this video. "Cuda Heaven" I like that :-)
You have made my day with your collection of 'Cuda, thank you. Nino Zamero owner of '70 ' Cuda 340 in NH
Hi Nino in NH. Glad to read you have a cool car too. Hope you see many more cars on this RUclips Channel you enjoy. Please subscribe, and hit the "bell" so you can see all the cars when they are uploaded on this RUclips Channel, Lou
LOVE IT.Watched this episode at least 100 times. Tom Rocks....Happy for him.Never jealous.
Hi Dennis, Happy to read you enjoy this video again & again :-) Lou
I am stunned by this collection of convertible Cudas. Wowie. Tom is one focused and lucky guy. Thank you Lou and thanks youtube for this one popping up out of nowhere. Dream car Garage.
Hi Bruce H., Happy to share this collection with you :-) You're welcome, Lou
I just turned 18 and man I wish my generation would have as much interest in these cars as I do many people view these as just "cars" however it takes special people with keen eyes to truly understand this goldmine
You're 18 and a true "Car Guy". Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
VANDERBEAVER it's the trends
exploit what you know and make money from it,these cars were under $10,000 when i was a kid.these convertible hemi cars are worth millions of dollars EACH
Computers sure changed things- but mastering computers =1200hp street cars. I remember when you doubted anyone saying they had 400hp.
That's awesome! I'm 19 and I love these amazing cars as well! I wish I was around back then to see these street beasts when they were everywhere! Long live American muscle!
What a very fortunate guy; what a breathe taking collection!!! Great investments !!!
Hi Dave, Happy to share the cars with you on the Channel :-) Lou
I don't know what this guy does for a living, but he sure is living! 😎👍👍
:-)
AMAZING! By far the best "Man cave" in HISTORY! my aunt had "A" 'Cuda, it was a 1970 340 car in B5 blue with a white convertible top! (No billboard side stripes) she sold it looooong before I was born! probably would fetch a pretty penny today! Thanks Lou! :D
Hi CudaRebels Diecasts and Cars, High praise for this "Man Cave" :-) Glad to read your Aunt had a Cuda too, NICE! You're welcome, Lou
WoW!! He's got some of the rarest, most coveted 1971 Cudas on Earth! And DRIVES them. My kinda dude! I would love just ONE of those righteous cars!
Hi Shannon, Happy to read you appreciate this collection of cars :-) Thank you for viewing, sharing and I believe you're going to see many more cars on this Channel you'll enjoy. Hope you Subscribe, and hit the "bell" so you can see all the cars when they are uploaded on this RUclips Channel, Lou

Hi Olympiakos Chrysler, Greetings Australia and hope you see many more cars on this RUclips Channel you enjoy, Lou
omg Lou. Over a Million dollars in Cuda's and he has a couple of Daytona's too? What I like about Tom here and his awesome cars is he seems like a REAL nice down to earth guy. Not pretentious. Of course I would be so proud to show all those beauties as well! AWESOME! I bet he'd like a I REAL nice place to display them indoors so they wouldn't be crowded with the right lighting and venting to clear the dust issue. Keep I'm coming Lou! ;))
+gene978 Hi Gene978, Tom is a nice fun guy to hang with, and I'm looking forward to knowing him better, Lou.
a million? you mean closer to 10 million?......or more?
Alot of $ sitting there
More like 13 million just for the 2 71 cuda hemi convertibles,probably 23-25 million total
OVER 30 MILLION IN CUDAS,GET IT RIGHT
Great Collection, the benefits of collecting early and choosing wisely !

Hi Patrick Hall, Glad to read you "love" Cuda's :-) Hope you see many more on this RUclips Channel, like this one, enjoy! Lou ruclips.net/video/JmnLzjQZTHw/видео.html
totally awesome!!!!
well said :-)
I'm in Indianapolis and around 1989 I sold a 1970 HEMI Cuda in Plum Crazy Purple. It was a 4-speed, console delete, super track pack with a Dana and 4:10s. All number matching and it had a SS/D motor, it was a street car but a very nice street car. When I sold it, it only had 47,000 miles and looked it, the two previous owners had taken good care of the car. Now I only have a scrap book with photos of it and some other nice Mopars we had up into the 2000s. It's nice to see all the Cuda's being cared for by one loving owner.
DOESNT IT SUCK TO KNOW YOU EITHER HAD OR " PRETENDED TO HAVE" A CAR WORTH MILLIONS NOW?

Hi Chris, Here is that car for you :-) Lou ruclips.net/video/hYJ7BRlxgdw/видео.html
When I die can somebody sprinkle my ashes inside of this Cuda heaven.
Long live Jim Domi.....we don't want to have to clean up the ashes in the Cuda Club, because as soon as you start the hemi car the ashes will be everywhere :-)

0:46 'obviously we've got a little Porsche here'...and walks on with absolutely zero interest..

Hi jeff mays, Glad to read you enjoy this collection :-) Lou
Lou Costabile absolutely incredible!! Thanks for the insane vid!!
Wow!!

Must be nice to have millions of dollars. Awesome that he drives them. I have a man cave too, only mine is all fishing tackle and guns. Not quite the value of this man cave. Amazing collection. Great find lou
Hi stripervince1, Thank you for viewing and sharing your thoughts. Lou
One of those should have been mine! I was in the air force during the Vietnam war and was stationed in Taiwan working on C-130s and at that time the military and auto makers had a deal going to sell cars to service members overseas for the same price a dealer would pay. I was overseas for 15 months and saved every penny I could but about a month before my time was up I got real sick and was in the hospital for a couple of weeks and when I got out of the hospital I called to order my red 1971 hemi 4speed cuda but they said I missed the deadline to order by one week. After hearing that I was even sicker...so I will even pay you the same price I would have paid for the new one I was getting even tho it's used...lol

@@loucostabile it wasn't all bad when I got home I bought a 1969 SS 396 4speed Camaro garnet red black vinyl top white interior. Loved it but I really did want a Cuda...
That place looks like heaven lol, I'd like to "join" the club someday
Amen !
i love cars!!
Me too. Lou
Thank you very much Lou For The Memories. Both Good And Then The Heartbreaking Moment That I Knew That It was the End Of My 1973 Special Edition CUDA. Powder Or BABY BLUE With The WHITE Vinyl TOP. With the 440 And The Original Dual Fours. It Met it’s End At The Hands Of The Ex Wife. It Always Had Way Too Damned Much Power And Not Enough Brakes. I Learned My Lesson That Very Bad Day To Never Let Another Woman Drive Your BABY. Not If You Want It Back In One Piece. It was Totally Destroyed And Not Repairable. Bent And Twisted Frame Not To Mention The Rest Of The Damages. There Was Not Even One Panel That was Not Ruined. I have Never Seen Another Just Like That One. I Still Love To Go To The Car Shows And See The Awesome Display Of The Greatest Cars Ever Built. As A Matter Of Fact This Week is the Concord De Elegance In North Florida. I’ll be there for the Show. Just Wish That I Could Have Had That One To Show Off. Thanks Again For The Memories
Hi Jeffrey Peck, Happy to read this car brings back memories :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
OMG wow!
Hi russ clewley, Glad to receive an "OMG wow!" from you :-) Hope you see many more cars on the Channel you'll enjoy, Lou
awesome
agreed.
NICE!!!

Watching your vids I'm re-living my Mopar youth.I bought a brand new "74 'Cuda 360-4v because I was 21 and it was the last of the E bodies. I wish I still had it. What are the odds of finding a 6 banger Barracuda E-fish nowadays to clone around with??
That's a good question. If you type in "My Car Story With Lou Dodge" & "My Car Story With Lou Plymouth" I believe you'll enjoy some of the cars. Thanks for sharing, Lou
Dodge, 6 Pack... Plymouth, 6 barrel. Elastomeric bumpers. GTO had the Enduro bumper.
Thank you Michael Moceri for sharing your knowledge.
The rubber bumpers on mopars are called elastrometic bumpers i believe.....
Hi Anthony Beno, Thank you for viewing and sharing your knowledge, Lou
Elastomeric. Surprised the owner didn't know that.
I own a V code "Cuda" with a fiberglass factory 440-6 pack hood. I understand the owner of Van Nuys Chrysler/Plymouth here in So Cal ordered the car and was built here at the Los Angeles plant. I of course have never seen another one. I was wondering if you knew of any such kind of car. I have the the car in the garage for 40 years.
Hi Paul Evans, I've seen quite a few Cuda's and yours sounds cool. I believe your Cuda is with the right Care Taker, Lou
I need a bib to watch this
:-)
The insurance company must be stressed right out, daily.
Seems the insurance company likes Tom because he has so many cars to insure :-)
@@loucostabile Ya, until something happened, god forbd.
Hell..im surprised he dont have the blue 71 hemi cuda that sold at Barrett jackson for 3.5 million....he got the rest of em
One that got away....
WOW

very nice cars. Richymopar
+richard Lees Hi Richymopar, A fun place! Thanks for viewing and commenting. Take care, Lou
I'd be happier than Santa with a base model no options slant 6 cuda, but oh my god do I want one
Hi Dominic Albisani, Hope you're behind the wheel of the right Cuda for you soon, Lou
Some serious coin spent down that cellar!!
Hi Kim Thompson, And we shares all of them for you on this RUclips Channel :-) Lou
When you have more money than you possibly need, start a Cuda club
N I C E :-) I hope I get to start a Cuda Club SOON !
@@loucostabile Me too!! Lol
what does the collection owner do for a living?
Jon A He's a Stock Trader.
Tom is a very fortunate man. He is NOT related to Bob Lambeck, the Landy Industries hired gun of the day, who went on to campaign his own SS/AA Dart....however, his passion is rivaled only by Jay Leno when it comes to this niche of pure '70's muscle. Hope you listened as he mentioned, he modifies/alters these engines, to suit his liking.....and drives the dog-snot out of them as they were designed, and intended, to be treated. Curious though, what difference does it make what a guy does to be wealthy? What do you do for a living Jon A?
Buys rare Mopars so we can video them and share them with you :-)
does he have a cuda that's red with red shaker scoop?it was the only color you could get a shaker scoop the same color as body paint....moulen red I think the paint color was....grey,white and black only colors of shaker scoops...with moulen red scoops only on moulen red body paint
Hmmm, I don't see that one here.
Wow yet antoher cuda who would have thought that.like they made so many.
+Danny F. Hi Danny, it's an amazing place. If you'd like to see more Cuda's I've videoed, when on RUclips.com type in "My Car Story with Lou Costabile Cuda" and you'll be able to see them. Thanks for viewing, Lou
Just saying every time he for some time its a Cuda or a Hemi they made more then that the cuda has a ugly grill all but the 71.
I wish I could be a Cuda club member.
Me too :-)
Hey Lou, , Did you ever check out that story about the white ford torino king cobra? All the experts seem to agree there were only three, yellow red and a orange one, but I found the fourth, the white one. That might be the muscle car mystery story of the century!! Let me know if your hot on the trail of solving that story... Thanx
I did see a picture of that car. Not sure where it's at, or if it's still around.
Lou Costabile so what do you think? How could all these car guys not know about it?
were my lottery winnings would go!
Hope you hit all the numbers :-)
field of dreams
:-)
If you can get 1 for under 250 grand , consiter your self lucky
Thank you for viewing and sharing. Hope you see many more cars on this RUclips Channel you'll enjoy :-) Lou
I guess a 90 day warranty and $1800 option kept sales low.
:-)
Used to be my buddy Dwight vorsteveld s challenger the red and white one with the luggage rack from rice lake ont he’s a well know mopar man he owns a wreckers in bewdely ont called Dwight’s place
Sounds like fun memories of the Challenger :-)
I want a 71 Cuda Convertible with a Shakerhood D:
You have great taste :-)
But finding one, for a decent price is impossible. when this guy got them all. :D
Elastomeric- only in solid colors? Front bumper 😁
