Now here’s a disturbing story. This 1970 Plymouth ‘Cuda 440 Six Pack was stolen from the original owner in Portland in 2001. The owner, who still has the title, filed a police report and spent years trying to find his beloved E-body. Then a month ago it turns up in a storage garage. Think the rest would be easy, right? Wrong. Watch the video after the jump and see what you think. Via The H.A.M.B.
