Easy.....black 1969 Corvette, big block with red interior. I would need nothing else.....although, maybe I could also get a 67 GTO Tri-power.....also black with red interior.

Take the louvers, wing and billboard sticker off and it looks 1000% better IMHO. And that sicker.........just damn ugly.



There, I feel better now..........

The billboard, the louvers, the wing.......these are what makes the car! Otherwise, it would not be a Hemi-Cuda.......just a plain old everyday coupe.

It's just fluff and options and they don't make the car IMO. The Hemi does. All the fluff makes it's ugly but again that is my opinion. I'd love to have one though.

I realize my options are boring and typical but I don't care.

1. 1969 Camaro SS Restomoded with all the tech options
2. Tesa X for the family vehicle (comes with lifetime free Super Charging to off-set the fuel usage of the other two cars.) ;-)
3. Commission a "Derelict" 1954 Chevy 3100 truck from ICON. The ultimate one-of-a-kind sleeper truck. Essentially a Derelict, externally stock-looking 1954 3100 super restomoded behind the scenes. This: https://www.icon4x4.com/tr Meets: https://www.icon4x4.com/derelict
