Default Re: $2 Million Hemicuda

About the $2 million dollar Hemi Cuda----it is white with black billboards. I am sure because the car was in my showroom for 2 weeks before it was picked up for delivery. Roger Gibson and I are very good friends and he brings many of these great cars to my shop for transportation to their owners.
It is a beautiful car but being a devout Yenko fan, it paled in comparison to the Yenko's across the showroom. floor.

What's so special about a hemi convertible?

[/ QUOTE ]

Not much, that's why I sold mine. The car had no soul...and it would never run better than a 14.05 at 105 mph. Though I wouldn't mind having it back just to sell it for $2,000,001.

Theirs a Hemi-Cuda hardtop running 12.0 flat at F.A.S.T. The car is in the "Certified Stock" class. Not F.A.S.T. Amazing what they can run when built and tuned right!

That's plenty of soul for me!

Yep, an old thread but pretty good info of where these cars were @ 10 years ago.
BS27R1B315367 is being offered @ the 06/14 Mecum Seattle sale, it'll be interesting to see where things go.

It's unlike Kevin to sell w/o replacing. Is it known if he has a 71 Hemi vert lined up to replace it?

That was my old car. Kevin had it a while and sold it to buy the blue car he is selling now. He mentioned that he always regretted getting rid of the yellow car...maybe he wants to buy it back now?

Steve I would have sold it for the 54k or whatever when you did too.
