http://money.cnn.com/2016/05/02/autos/plymouth-hemi-cuda-stolen/An avocado-green 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda worth $1.4 million was stolen from a home in Westchester County, just north of New York City. The good news is it should be easy to spot thanks to its distinctive flower-patterned vinyl top.
The "Mod Top" option was offered by Chrysler (FCAU), which made Plymouth cars, for a short time in a bid to win more female customers. Only one buyer ever chose to get that flowery feature on a Plymouth muscle car that had the 425-horsepower Hemi engine option.
A 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda, with or without the flowered roof, is an extremely rare and valuable car.
"This is a work of art," said Joe Stephenson, managing director for special investigations at Hagerty Insurance, the company that insures the Plymouth. "It's just like a Picasso or any other valuable work of art."
Steven Juliano of Pelham Manor, New York was the Hemi 'Cuda's most recent owner, at least until someone stole the car from him around midnight on Monday, April 25.
"We're trying to determine if this was a targeted theft or if it was a crime of opportunity," said Stephenson.
