Rather than an emblem change I would think the bubble got swapped... Whether on the assembly line or at a later date... Who knows??

:iagree:  There are a couple of others out there with the "426 Hemi" emblems on the bubble like this one (Tim Wellborn's '71 FE5 auto car for example). I've heard that they may have come from the factory like that. Assembly line temporarily out of "hemi'cuda" emblems so they popped a "426 Hemi" Challenger bubble on there to keep the line moving.  :dunno:

Tis' better to have owned classic Mopars and lost than to have never owned at all (apologies to Alfred Lord Tennyson)

I thought I'd update the thread with a final selling price.

Wish I could have seen it in person.  That seems on the soft side for that car.

There will be another B5 Blue 4-speed 71 Hemicuda at the Scottsdale auction in January!
Said to have the highest VIN known?

I watch all the auctions, these cars move constantly.  INVESTORS. Only money to them, no love.  :headbang:
