Frank, you made some great choices...especially where the Savoy & the '63 to'67 Belvedere's are concerned. However, after seeing how good my bud Angelo Phillips '68 GTX looks and runs, I'd like to add that and the wild (mini-Belvedere) Valiant with the wild 273 that's big block quick, to my list (like the 10 second stocker this site ran a thread on 3-5mths ago)!

Re: "7" Plymouth's You Just Had to Have.
 
I think a very rare 65' Coronet should be added to the list.
The one, the Dodge techs designed for the Canadien Can-Am race
across Canada (Toronto-to-Vancouver).
A 426 Hemi, with single 4-barrel cross-ram.
Modified off-road suspension.
Twin gas tanks in the trunk (40-gallon each)??
Cream colored base, red roof.
Bubble gum light on roof, and spot-light on driver-side door.

Paul,

I have the magazine with the article on that car somewhere in the thousands of magazines that I have......do you remember the driver the car was built for? Have to look it up.

I sure would've Paul, but there's one problem...Coronet's are Dodge products, and when you started this thread you only spoke about Plymouths...no offense though, because I love the Car (especially after seeing Bob Marshall's "Dodge Material", and Dennis Maurer's former SS/BA Super Stockers), it's just the wrong make for this thread...sorry. :(

I wish that Chrysler would've saved the Plymouth brand name, because a Drag Pack "Cuda", would've been the shot in the arm Plymouth could've been revived by!!??

I guess you are correct when you said you saw the Centolanza Bros 71 Hemicuda convertible painted in those colors as you described. I must have been thinking of another 71 Hemicuda convertible owned by Masciarelli and painted in those other colors I described earlier, I'll see if I can dig up some old photo's of them. But that Centolanza Bros paint job still looks exactly like the old 71 440-6 Cuda convertible that John Livingston used to own, maybe they sold it to him after they were done with the car.
