A one-of-a-kind Plymouth "Mod Top" Barracuda valued at over $1 million has gone missing and is presumed stolen from the owner's home in Westchester, police said.
According to the NY Daily News, Steven Juliano's green 1970 'Cuda, estimated to be worth $1.4 million, was stolen from his Pelham Manor garage shortly after midnight on Tuesday, police said.
Juliano got a call from his home security company alerting him of a break in after he had just loaded three other vintage vehicles into a trailer bound for Los Angeles, Calif., according to a source familiar with the investigation.
The police arrived to find the hotrod missing, the source said.
The "Mod Top" Barracuda is a unusual, with the muscle of a 425-horsepower Hemi engine and the girly touch of its floral print vinyl top, according to HotRod.com.
A renowned automotive aficionado Juliano, has been known to mix with Jay Leno and other famed motor-heads, the source said.
State Police officials were unable to confirm that that the one-of-a kind, known in rare-car circles as a "freak", may be in or heading towards Queens, according to the source.
