uh the music was inputed by the guy who uploaded this! looking at the age of the FILM, the sound would be grainny sounding with fuzzy background noises! and these promo whould have a narrator not just music!
haha....some guy below is saying the 426 Hemi is "overrated". Haha. Yep, that's why all Top Fuel engines (8,000hp) are based on the Hemi design. Definately overrated. Geez, they should've just used the 318 poly as a base.
i own a 70 burnt orange roadrunner, when you look at these cars, these are pieces of american art, that we will never see again........................when i die, i am going to be creamated, put in the ash tray of my runner and have it welded shut, then me and the car in the ground..
i never understood the 426 facination. i would rather have a 440 car with a mere 40 horse less and save $100,000 and not feel guilty for driving it. or better yet a 318 equiped car and rag the living shit out of it
that 40 horses your giving up was really more like 100 and all of the potential of having a hemi ie the ability to make 700+ hp with a little tuning. and nothing sounds like a hemi
@imjustborddude Chrysler never changed the engine's advertised horsepower and torque ratings, which stood at 425 hp at 5000rpm and 490 foot-pounds of torque at 4000 rpm. Although, it became common knowledge that Chrysler had grossly underrated the Hemi. There have been tests that have produced results closer to 550 horse power and higher torque production. Getting to "700+ Hp with a little tuning" I don't really get. I suppose that it all depends upon what you mean by (a little tuning).
Flashbacks! The second one they show is a Gran Coupe and I had one in high school('82 graduate). Aside from the wheel covers, mine looked EXACTLY like that one, right down to the color. I miss that car a lot and wish I'd never been such an idiot to sell it in the mid 1980's.
I had a blue Gran Coupe with a white vinyl top and drove it in 82' goin to high school in Indy. It was a 383 2-bbl but it was cool with the overhead console. I really loved that car.
Two Gran Coupe's in high school in '82! Mine was a 383 4brl, 4 speed, and no power steering. My arms STILL hurt! This was in the Wausau WI area (central WI). Right in the heart of salt country.................(RUST)
No kidding man, My dream car there, 70 cuda with a 440 and a sixpack. First thing I'd do with it if I got one, take it downtown, Pop in a Heart CD at a stoplight, play barracuda, and peel out when it turned green. CUDA BABY!
Well, if that was an insult buddy, it really sucked. I saw a badass Super Bee the other day driving on the Highway, there's a new muscle car show room in SC and you could see it from the highway. All the cars in there looked like they just rolled out the factory. I think it's Classic Muscle of South Carolina.
@goyim1999 This is a promotional film rather than a TV commercial, and BBD&O, the agency representing Chrysler-Plymouth, would not have used this music. The original soundtrack narration is missing. But, it is good to see the video portion at least!
I wonder if Galen Govier has accounted for the HemiCuda in this promo or not?

The 70 Cuda is in my opinion the best looking one. I like the clean lines and the un cluttered look of the front and back end.

Boy, if only I could find an unmolested base or Gran Coupe. Sadly, many were chopped up for parts, or made into 'Cuda clones.
