OK. The old proverbial story of I saw/owned/worked on, etc and Hemi Cuda vert story. My Brother-in-law was told a story by a "restoration shop" owner in a small town out in west Texas. I'm not saying what town at the moment. This guy supposedly restored and original 1970 "440" Hemi Cuda convertible several years ago. It was yellow. My guess it was a 440 car and not a Hemi. It there a yellow 70 Hemi Cuda vert out there?

I doubt this is the one he is talking about. I'm sure it was a clone or a 440 car.

I am not the expert on 1970 Cuda Convertibles but I believe there was only 2 FY1 1970 Hemi Cudas convertibles built. Both were sold new in Canada, no Export or no US built 1970 Hemi Cudas convertibles in FY1.

His talents, or the association of working on a cool car? Never really thought about that, but there's prob a bunch of blow-hards who brag about certain prestigious cars they've worked on, almost like someone bragging about the famous people he knows. drive
