Our Yard, this was 1987, because my new Buick is in the yard now. I can still remember lining up beside my father at Cayuga in his 68 340 Barracuda . It was going low 13's and we had a grudge match. He had no idea that this little turbo v6 could run the times it was. He was convinced he would kick my ass. When we went through the traps and turned off the return road and I had one, he had the dumbest look on his face. Just threw his arms up in the air , like WTF just happened. LOL, I'll never forget that .That's him standing beside his newly acquired 68 383 Barracuda . RIP Dad, I miss you .

My 87 GN. Bought it brand new. I added slicks, test pipe, Kenne Bell chip. Car would run 12.98's and still get awesome gas mileage

71 Hemi RR, would've, could've , should've . This is the ultimate brain fart, this was taken at St.Thomas Dragway on Mopar day in 1987. I remember it clearly, it was for sale, very low mileage original 71 Hemi Roadrunner . I was looking at it thinking damn thats the same price as the Grand National I was looking at brand new. I bought the Grand National..... Who was to know this car would be worth well over $200,000 some day....... It is still around, it's in the states somewhere now. It pops up once in awhile on the net. Ronnie Hawkins ended up with it shortly after this .

My 68 Barracuda today. Its a Georgia car, and came with a 383, very rare and I rarely drive it ( I believe around 1600 were made). Too afraid of something happening to it. Put maybe 50 miles on it last summer. I keep it insured and in a garage. It was appraised a couple of years ago for $28,000 .

My 72 RR?GTX . When you ordered the 440 in a Roadrunner in 1972 it became a Roadrunner/GTX. They were phasing out all the hi performance cars because of the gas crunch. So as a result very few bigblock cars were made. This was a 440 4 sped Dana 60 equipped car. I drove it for a few years after fixing it up, and sold it for $6500 in 1989 to finance my first house. I now know there were only a little over 500 produced in 1972 with the bigblock and the 4 speed transmission. Can you say rare? Jesus if I only knew how rare some of these cars were back then. It was too heavy to be fast,but it was fun to drive, ( 81/2 to 1 compression didn't help any)

Another picture of my 69 RR original 383 4 speed car. I had put a 440 4 speed in it. I bought the shell for $500 . It was original paint at the time as well, this thing was in incredible shape , I loved this car. Probably the one I regret selling the most, it was just a nice car to drive.

70 440 6pak , nope I didn't own this one. I could have, I went to look at it. A original 70 Cuda 440 6 pak 4 speed car. He wanted around the $10,000 mark if I recall correctly. I decided it was too rich for me! Damn we all know what these things were selling for a few years back, around the $150,000 mark. Damn hindsight.

My AAR Cuda. A original 340 6 pak 4 speed car. I had everything to restore it, even the Trans Am block. But being in my early 20's and a moron, I let it go. Over a $100,000 car if restored a few years ago.

comin home , this was when my dad picked it up. I found it down there a year earlier. It was sitting behind a garage with front end damage, hit a stump being driven in a field and tore the passengers front lower a frame off. Traded a 340 6 pak intake for it. About $500 at the time. Car was still orig paint.

As it sits today, I traded it to my dad who sold it to my brother. He still owns it, it was appraised at $40,000 a couple of years ago, but it needs a resto done on it. He has since put new floor pans and a trunk pan in it, the frame is rock solid.

my 70 Bee , bought this for $500 it was sitting across town in Smithville. Does not look like much, but this is where some knowledge of Mopars helps. VIN revealed a orig 440 6 pak , 4 speed car. Still had the Dana 60 with 4:10's and the Hemi 18 spline 4 speed in it. But was powered by a 383 when I bought it.

Pissed off clown, I had this painted on the scoop to give the car some character. Look close at the eyes and the lapel.
