There is a 3rd one I know of , Buffed silver metallic with red interior , Hemi auto ( major project car )

It shows Canadian hemi cars only. Not the total hemi cars built, just ones shipped to Canada...

Read elsewhere
They have about 30 cars committed for the hemi convertible invitational.

I belive they have at least one of every model from 1966 thru 1970 in both Dodge And Plymouth models

What a great conclusion to this story of a very rare car! I saw a vid on YouTube yesterday of them pulling the cover off this burgundy car, but I didn't put 2+2 together until I saw the notification on this post. Made my day!

Not many cars searched for have such a happy ending..... I guess the only missing ingredient is the OP trying to buy the car back now.

The car was still in primer the middle of Sept.
Troy had near the entire team working on this car since that time. In order to make it happen in time for this debut.

Pictures DO NOT do it justice

Owner swears he will put some road miles on it.
Maybe next summer

I know current owner well

The only way I can see this car ever being avail is a buyer would have to buy them all

And we are talking 12 - 13 real hemi B body convertibles . All one hit , One time deal.
But its an instant collection of Hemi B body drop tops , One each from 1966 thru 1970

That's a lot of coin to part with. Sounds like a nice collection.

And am quite sure it would be well into 7 figures to get that deal done
Owner has spent the better part of the past 20 plus years putting this collection together


One of them IS for sale though

1968 Coronet RT droptop
hemi , console auto . EE1 blue with dark blue interior

In case anyone has a few Benjamin's they want to part with
