What is your A Body history, which ones, and how many have you had? Why?

Bought a new 1971 340 Duster and that's it until
I got the '67 'Cuda in 2006

Did you order your Duster or pick it out of inventory? What motor and color?

Pictures of the 67?

My '64 'Cuda is my second one.
My first was back in the '80's, a '67 Barracuda fastback with a blown 273. Guy I bought it from talked me into putting a big block in it. Found a guy selling a 426W motor, bored it .070" and put standard sized TRW 440 slugs in it, Isky cam, Hooker fenderwells, 4-speed, 3.23 Sure-Grip, Keystone Klassics. It was an ugly car that ran like stink, ate U-joints for breakfast. Sold the car a year later before I killed myself in it.

The first time through this, I thought you had a huffer on a 273.
I bet that 440 4 gear A Body was a handfull.

My A-body history started when I was about 5 years old. It involved my moms 74 Valiant 4 door gold with a black vinyl top, the rear pass side door, 3 of the fingers on my right hand and my sister laughing at me screaming my *** off.

I didn't even think about them again until around 2001 when I got my 73 scamp for $450 because it was cheap and ran.

Ouch! Did you lose your fingers, or just hurt them real bad?
