In a historic gathering that could only be rivaled by a convention of unicorns, the 2015 Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals in Chicago, IL, showcased an impressive 27 Hemi Cuda and Challenger Convertibles from 1970 and 1971. Considering there were only 42 ever made, this was like seeing a Sasquatch riding a unicorn—extremely rare and utterly spectacular. Never before had more than nine been seen together, making this display a once-in-a-lifetime treat for car enthusiasts and mythical creature hunters alike.

Plymouth built only 114 Hemi Cudas for 1971, with just 12 convertibles among them, numbers so small that two brothers who wrote down an impossibly specific wish list, unrestored, four-speed, original owner, build sheet included, figured the search would take years. They found their car in three weeks. Genuine, documented originals from this ultra-low-production run have sold for well over a million dollars at auction.
