Put $50.00 down on my 'cuda on my 20th birthday in July of 1976. Paid $50.00 a week for another nine weeks 'till she was paid in full. I made $72.00 a week at the time. Still have her after all these years and she's almost done! That makes it 39 years.

I purchased my 68 Dart GTS in June 1980, parked it DEC 1981 and then drove it for the first time "again" two weeks ago. My wife (then girlfriend) rode in the car in Aug of 1980 for the first time and then two weeks ago rode in the same car for only the second time. Married her 27 years ago and yes the car has really been parked for 34 years and I have owned it 35 years!
 
Bought the car in April 2014

bought my demon new in 71 and still have it

I love these cars, my dad sold a 72 just like yours last year, all original. These things just don't bring what they used to, i think he got about $15k for it and it was one of the cleanest cars I've seen.
 
Bought my 68 cuda fastback in feb 1978. 37 years. First car I ever bought, still have it! Paid $1700 for it with 55000 miles on it.
 
Bought my 69 Swinger in 1980 saw it for 4 years from when it was NEW
 
I bought my Barracuda convertible in September 1967 from Brown and Daub in Easton Pa. I just finished a tour in Vietnam and was headed to Ft Gordon. It's been a blast to drive.
It just had it's 5th motor transplant and now I have some minor (I hope) rust to tackle. Then on to repaint.

I salvaged her from a scrap yard in 1994, took two years to get the title, and immediately had it transferred to my name. Now by March of 2016 she'll be finished, as per my wife!!!!

In 2009 I loaded up the Duster and brought it home. Progress stopped four years ago when I brought the Charger home. I have since acquired everything to restore it back to its original 340 configuration. I just gotta get my butt in gear.

That looks like the street behind Katella ave deli?
 
Traded a 1990 C4 for Penny...drove her to the garage and started right into cleaning and restoring...this weekend will be dropping front and rear cleaning the bottom side, then start putting her back together by spring. Aggressive but DANG GOOD THERAPY!
