The last name of the guy who had it was Sutton, iirc. I sold him parts for another 71 Cuda convertible he was working on years ago when he still had the Hemi car.

So I guess that means the punishment for losing a drag race to a Hellcat is death. Dodge takes the fun of driving way more seriously than Pontiac, apparently.
