Hi Billy....welcome to the club matey...
Love your car. Great shape and colour, and those wheels are really nice
Love your Dads old Hemicuda...that was only 15 years old when the pic was taken. My old Peugeot is that old now. Love to know what it was worth then and now...will be megabucks I imagine!
Cant wait to see some more pics of your car and get stuck in and enjoy the club,
Cheers Steve

I seem to remember a figure like £25k, when I heard that it had been sold and had gone back to the States - that must have been late 80's?
I'm sure Billy can shed some light tho

That was a lot of money then but nothing compared to now
Ive read stuff about Chrysler struggling to sell these and Daytonas etc....unbelievable eh!
Bet youve got some great memories Billy...my Dad always had bikes when I was a kid and I was made up when he bought a Reliant Regal for us because he didnt have a car licence..Imagine what I would have been like if he had taken me to school in a 70 Cuda convertible!!
Im a big fan of the early cudas...especially the ones with the massive rear screens but I am drooling over the shape of yours...great lines, everything just looks great on her

What a great story re the Hemi and that video is awesome...
Back to you and your car Billy....have you got any more pics of the interior and engine bay etc please? Those wheels look really mean in the wheel wells, are they 15" or bigger? The body colour on them is perfect in my book, just wouldnt look the same in black on this car in my opinion
