In 1972 I was a junoir in high school. I purchased a real 69 CUDA 340 Red with black CUDA striping. One saturday nite I was cruising a local hang out. As I pulled into the parking lot going out the other side of the parking lot were a 68 or 69 Road Runner and a 64 Belvedere big block.They were heading out in the country to race. They stopped at the last stop light heading out of town. The Road Runner was in the left lane and the Belvedere in the right.I lined up behind the RR and the light turned green and everybody launched. The RR eased past the Belvedere and then I went on by the RR. I had worked my way into their race and out ran both of them! There were several other street races that my CUDA 340 won. That car also out ran three NC Highway patrolmen and a couple of local deputies. All of these happened at seperate times! I had my brake and tail lights on toggle switches. I could turn them completely off! I still don't why GOD let me outlive that car!!!
