Now this is what I like. A very rare muscle car authentically recreated. No modern components whatsoever. Simple appearance the way a real one came from the factory

Which is it 11 or 12 cars total? Mecum is claiming 7 USA, 2 Canada and 3 exported to France.. Over the years the domestic count has always been 7, but the Canadian/French count has varied. Makes me wonder if one of these cars is really just a clone..

Anyone know, what the hammer price was on this one..?

Beautiful car and very similar to the one my friend owns, 1 of the 12 original 71 hemi cuda convertibles. Here's a video I did with my friend talking about the history of his factory hemi cuda convertible.
