Man I wish I could have one of those they are unattainable now days just cost way too much for any old school Mopar the goal is still a 1969 Daytona or 1970 Plymouth superbird I will make to make a replica of them sadly
I like that absolutely half-hearted warning the sheriff gives the guy before he ends up getting turned to hamburger. "At least I can say in the report that I warned him, that covers my ass..."
The Cuda is so friggin slick, my favorite year, too. The only things I'd change are give it a shaker hood and go with Plum Crazy purple paint instead of Mood Indigo blue.
Don't get me wrong, I own 2 Ford Escort coupes (known as the Ford Laser in other countries) and I'd pick the Cuda in memory of my great grandmother from Berlin, Germany.
And whoever tought that these cars nowadays, specially in their factory condition, they're selled like it was an second hand GT-R R35 (stock 240SX without any drift missile mods) or an Brand new McLaren Freaking F1 (the Plymouth Barracuda with an Factory and VIN matched Hemi engine).
The 360 wasn't a hemi. The little Nissan could keep up on twisty roads or a race circuit but yeah a stock 240SX wouldn't have anything for it on relatively straight farm country roads like that.
All those cars are boats compared to the 240. Non of them have the motorsport versatility of a 240sx. They are still tearing up tracks around the world
CUDA 1 looks a bit too much like ‘coulda won’ maybe 1 CUDA might have been better. Is the red ‘cuda at the end supposed to be the same car as the blue one?
Was only having one mirror normal on cars back then? I know the 1988 Honda Civic STD trim came with only the drivers side mirror and I believe it was the DX and the later 89-91 models that came with a passenger side mirror. Apparently it used to be legal to have only one mirror.
yaa..the olden days. the psngr side mirror was an option on many cars..$5 or $10 bux..crazy not to get it, lol..but ppl did. cars were more ala carte, then..not all packages and not all loaded with 5 pgs of options. i had a '66 Chrysler Newport in the 90's..had pwr steering, pwr brakes and a light pkg..inc. trunk, under hood and dome & map light on the dash..that was about it..oh..tinted windshield. no radio, even! aha. a fairly typical option list with only the radio delete being a tad peculiar.
@@BoostedPastime Yeah and still is legal as far as I know although most/all come with a passenger side mirror now. The vast majority of cars didn't have them until at least the 80s. In my state at least the passenger side mirror isn't required on cars UNLESS the rear window has tint then it is required. Not sure if there are any cars with factory rear tint and no passenger side mirror or not if so I assume they would be exempt, but if tint is added on it's required to retrofit it with a passenger side mirror.
@@BoostedPastime definitely more customizable. kind of like the 'Jail Break' edition Dodges, now..but even more so. the diff exterior/interior color combos and options you could just pick & choose..everything is all pkgs now and oft times picking one option may negate the possibility of another.
Can't remember which year it was but there was a Toyota Supra model in the '80s that was really fast. They should have raced with that. I had an MR2 that was pretty fast. Great on the corners.
Had a lot of🏆 mopars🏆 never had a cuda🙄 had a 69 super Bee 4 speed 383 with the matching 69 Coronet with 440,73 Challenger &charger too many to list😆 cool video thank you🍀 got R done😎✌️
Not to mention that both cars are very challenging hunting for the collectors to find these 2 cars in stock pristine condition; for the rookie collector; finding an nice 240SX S13 that wasn't wrecked & swapped to the torsion bars due to their extensive popularity among the drifting community & for the veteran old schooler is to find an pristine or a survivor looking Barracuda, specially find an gold mine that is an HEMI powered ´Cuda from the factory (and with the right factory VIN numbers matching) without beign sell to the insanity levels, like it was an Brand New McLaren F1. Specially if you know the story about the Convertible Hemi Cudas.
Point out to me what video I've uploaded where the title of the movie is not at the beginning of the video and also not in the description of the video and I'll tell the movies name.
@@CycolacFan oh please forgive me as I must have looked away from my phone for a few seconds after hitting play to make sure I wasn't going to miss the runway as I'm trying to land a Boeing Airbus.
So he rides off with a girl in the airbags already ought to have probably years before. In real life she gets married twice and you figure out you just need to go around a****** and keep going. Thankfully! I like the lightning blue better.
To be fair this looks like a made for TV movie with no budget, so it likely was a Barracuda that had a paint job and hood swap done to it. Would be a easier and cheaper than getting the real item and most people who watched back in 1990 probably wouldn't have paid much attention anyway.
