O.K. B body guys, I always thought you couldnt get the 383 in the 500 in 1970......
Its a crazy world. I came across a 73' 340 Cuda a few years after I got my drivers license.....it was decked out to the nines....even had the overhead console with working indicators..on a used car lot in Mt Holly Nj alongside some Nissans and Toyotas. I should have grabbed it...but was severely cash poor...and dad wouldn't loan me the dough for a dangerous "hotrod" that I would end up killing myself in...I should have sold some blood and limbs to get that car.It's amazing to see a rusted out B Body selling for a $10-15k that would be relegated as a $500 parts car if it was a C-Body.
I remember when '63 Corvettes hit the $25k mark and I thought the end of the world was near.
This was beyond decent....no "visible" rust....immaculate "pleather" seats...nice dash....had factory stripes...I think it was $5999. Kicking myself still.Decent 1973-74 Challengers/Cuda's are going for $20k+ these days.
That would be one hell of a deal today!
