Took these pics of a newer Challenger and Daytona on a trailer in 2018. Snapped the pictures while waiting at the light!
Adding stickers and chrome plating, you will easily pick up a tenth in the quarter! But in all seriousness, I like it. It's got that Super Stock look. Cheers.In the world of rotisserie chickens, resto-mod$ and pro-touring upgrades, someone needs to carry the torch driving an unrestored original 70 Plymouth'...I got you!. . a date-code correct 340 Cuda with the original 727 running through the factory suregrip 391 was sitting for nearly 40 years. It was put on moth balls in the mid-eighties so I have some drive-time to make-up. I dusted it off and proudly driving it every day possible (weather permitted). I just added some rattle can satin black with some FJ5 and decals for a 70's Drag car look. As the dream of what she will look like when resto'd proper is nice, the freedom of driving this car carefree like it was 1978 again' "beats the brakes off" the sweating your high dollar paint job will get a blem. Been there done that

Those things were from the 70's and 80's. Guys would buy them and sharpen the handle to a point, they damn sure didn't come like that! Made a convenient "shiv" for street thugs! Back when I was a cop we were always on the lookout for those things!
I stumbled upon this one when I was organizing my photo files. This was 1st. Avenue Chrysler Plymouth in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. They sold a ton of AAR's. What color did you want?

That's a great back story. I always wondered why there were so many AAR's in the area. I know a few made it north to Waterloo.Great photo, there were approximately 40 AAR's sold by 1st ave. Plymouth. I purchased the very last one they had
off the show room floor, it was limelite lime. I had the car for 5 years, unfortunately I had the bug to go drag racing and traded it to the service manager at 1st Ave. for his 72 Cuda super stockcar.
I now have two E bodies, 73 340 Cuda and 70 Barracuda with Gen III Hemi.
Still wish I kept the AAR.
Do you have any pictures of your two cars to share? Especially the 70!I now have two E bodies, 73 340 Cuda and 70 Barracuda with Gen III Hemi.
