Comments: Numbers matching 383 automatic, just one of 516 produced of 1,070 R/T convertibles for the 1970 model year. The only year an R/T convertible was available. The car is an absolute joy to drive especially on mountain roads with the top down. The car never fails to win a trophy at whatever show it is at which is quite a feat as it is no trailer queen.

The hood was never installed. Most recently Mal's Challenger was photographed by Electronic Arts for the updated verson of the video game "The Need for Speed". The Hemi Orange Challenger is always the highlight of his day.

Comments: At the young age of 19, this car has been Mike's daily driver for two years come November. Rain or shine. It runs very well at the strip and the videos are a blast to watch. Mike built his first motor and transmission that are now in this car. Its the original 318, .030, J-heads, Comp Cam, Alum intake, Headers, and a few other goodys. It's turned so far a best of 14.0 with 5,800ft of air. So with decent air it's got mid/high 13s written all over it for a 3,600lb, 318 powered daily driver.

Comments: Jacksboys got this 1971 Dodge Challenger in 1995, when he was only 17. The car received a new paint job, new engine, and a few other upgrades. It served as his daily driver for the next two years, and then served as a special occasion vehicle until 2001. In late 2005, after a four-year hiatus, the 360 was rebuilt with a little performance in mind, with some help from family and friends. With a few more additions, the car should be in the 13's when finished. It is a fun, low maintenance car to drive and got 17+ mpg on the highway while on the 2006 Hot Rod Power Tour

The entire car was taken to bare metal and all repairs were made before the beautiful white satin with fine blue pearl and clearcoat paint was applied. So, there she now sits in her "renewed glory" as "whitesatinmopar". Some of the changes/upgrades include a built 360 pursuit engine, bored .030 over with a .450 purple shaft cam and a 600 cfm Carter carb. The car has the original interior except for the carpet and upholstery. A beautiful car owned by one of the nicest guys on the board!

I have headers, electronic ignition, edelbrock aluminum manifold, and a BG Mighty Demon Carb. I also just put in 3.91s with a suregrip in the back. The car has recently been repainted and upholstered inside. The car had a/c in it but the entire heater/ac box and lines are pulled out. I'm going to put a new ac system in and I also want to do a 4speed swap. There are still a bunch of little trim and electrical issues I need to work out but overall I love the car.

The only changes made during the restoration in 1984 was using a Hockey Stick stripe in place of the original body side molding & 15 inch Rallye wheels in place of the original 14 inch Road Wheels (Magnum 500 style).

This car was purchased in 2005 and was in terrible condition. It went through a complete restoration that took 3 years and turned out great. The barracuda started out life as a 318 but now has a 440, automatic trans. The original color of the car was Hemi Orange with a white interior, but it now sports a purple exterior with an AAR stripe. This is his first car, the best car ever made and it will stay with him forever.

The August Car of the Month is dedicated to Owen Burrichter, son of Darren (Burdar) and Julie Burrichter. Last December, his father Burdar shared the sad news that Owen was sick and had just had surgery. He remained brave and happy, and fought on. To the members of the Cuda-Challenger group, Owen was like family. Some members showered him with hot wheel cars, which he loved to open and play with. Darren would provide frequent updates on Owen's exploits, his endearing spirit, and his prognosis. For many members, checking up on Owen was the first stop when visiting our site. He had many people praying for him, and offering words of support and encouragement to his family. On Wednesday, July 24, 2013, Owen died peacefully at his home after an heroic battle. The memory of Owen, and his love for cars and trucks, and helping his dad work on their car will live on, in each of us as we share in our love for our family, friends, and as we enjoy the cars of our hobby.

Here we have a hot BS27H0B 1970 Cuda 340 4 speed convertible! This member bought this car as a basket case in 1987 and fixed as much as he could afford in 1988 . . . Body/Paint, Carpet, Upholstery . . . then dropped in a mild 340 in that he already had. Fast forward to 2013 and it was time to do it again but better. He rebuilt the 340 into a 418 Stroker [480 HP & 511 Torque] and did a full repaint. I would say Life is good for him! He did indicate that he is still not done though . . . . Are we ever?

This member just recently picked up a 1973 'Cuda 340 (BS23H) from Westchester NY. It has a numbers matching drive train, with a 4 speed pistol grip. It was originally red, now black with black interior no console car. It has a mild cam, and 355's in the rear. This is one very cool car that will certainly turn heads where ever it goes!

This member has owned the AAR Cuda’ since about 1985 . . . found it in the local paper which he then purchased. It was Dark Ivy Green and in need of a repaint, He choose to go with Moulan Rouge, but then his son was not happy with a “pink” car. When he entered it in the first car show . . . . it won 1st place! He looked at his son wearing his Sh!t eating grin and told him to go get the trophy for “HIS” pink car. What a girl catcher car it was for him! And many trophy's over the years! Certainly a fine example of cuda’ perfection!

This car was purchased off the local dealership in San Jose in 1972 by Topcat's Mom & Dad. In 1978, it was given to him as a graduation present and he's owned it ever since. In the eighties, it was transformed from a 318 into a 340 4 speed. Today it has a stroked, solid cam 485 ci Hemi. A full rotisserie restoration was done in his backyard doing most of the work himself. Plans are to add billboards and a few other upgrades.Topcat enjoys taking her out on week-ends on open roads away from the slower city traffic and let that Elephant breathe like it was meant to!

This great Challenger was bought in 2012 after serving 2 years as a Chrysler Manufactures Vehicle and is assumed that it was used for promotions and shows. This member always loved the new Challenger when it was released and blue certainly jumped out at her. It is pretty much stock except for the flowmasters and tinted windows! It gets a ton of attention everywhere it goes! Mileage just hit the 100K milestone and it still runs and looks GREAT!

This month we have a 1970 Hemi ‘Cuda’' clone with new Challenger shaker stripes! This Barracuda was originally rallye red with a black interior and this member reversed the color scheme! He also went with some custom stripes to set it apart from the others . . . . WOW! It came with a 225 slant six and auto transmission from the factory and now sports a 426 hemi backed by a Passon 4 speed overdrive and a 4:10 Dana rear end! It definitely really moves! It took this member almost 10 years to restore and what an awesome finished product!

Engine: 340 stroked to 416
This member purchased this car in 2004! Came factory in Basin Blue and featured a 318 and automatic trans. The plan was to build a 4 link rear suspension, upgrade the front suspension, convert to a 4 speed, build a stoker motor and do a lot of fabrication! The car will be painted in Sublime and will have the AAR front black out with ‘Cuda tips through the valance exhaust. The interior will be black and somewhat stock looking. The idea is to make a slightly upgraded version of an AAR just without It the AAR stripes. Some details are 340 stroked to 416 (MRL kit, TTI headers, Edelbrock RPM heads, Crane cam and lifters) EFI 6 barrel (F&B) A833 23 spline Homemade hydraulic clutch, Reinforced 8 3/4 with 3.55 gears! Awesome!

71 Barracuda. Originally a 318 2bbl car in b5 blue. Now I have a 520 cu in stroker with a original aluminum 6bbl intake and repo carbs, massaged 440 source aluminum heads, 4 bolt main caps, 11:1 cr, roller rocker, roller lifter. Dyno'd at 550 hp and 640 ft lbs! The paint is chrysler electric blue (I call it Blue Bayou) and the rust free arizona body is stock appearing with Cuda' trim. It took me 3 years of wrenching and more to get it tuned in. What a great car!
