Several different cudas. Not sure if they are all original cars though.

Me too! I love Candy Apple Red and Gold Leaf lettering. Fred Hurst had a beautiful Cuda with an injected Hemi and ran A/G I think. Not a BO29 car though.

I'm thinking its in a collection in St. Pete Florida, not sure of the guys name but I think his claim to fame was the sorting machine for the post office. That's just what I heard.

Wow, I had forgotten about Oldsmar cool pic. I still live in south Tampa.

I grew up in St. Pete but never went to Oldsmar when it was active. Robert Fulco took me by there a couple of years ago and it's now a park. The track surface was still there, narrow and bumpy from the looks of it. Bradenton opened up about the time I got my first car, so I went there instead. I swear I walked past Stewart's Duster (ex-Mopar Missile) at Bradenton once circa 1974 and never knew what I was looking at. The Nelson Des Champs name didn't mean anything to me. Only years later when he showed me photos of the car I thought, boy that car looks a lot like the Missile. Then he told me it was!

That's awsome, a friend of mine over on abodiesonly is a huge fan of the missile and has built an incredible Hemi car to pay tribute to the missile. He has created the ghost of a missile. His name is Hemi Denny.

I need to figure out how to post some pics using this I pad.

does anyone know of a '68 Hemi 'cuda found in Wilson, NC? i don't know if it was a real one or not but there was a former racecar that sat in a backyard in that area for years and then it disappeared.
