Hulk Hogan Was A Real Mopar Muscle Car FanSadly, professional wrestler Hulk Hogan has passed away at the age of 71 after reportedly suffering a medical emergency this morning. While we mourn the loss of a great man, we also want to remember one of his big passions: Mopar muscle cars.
Mario Andretti has been reunited with his old Autolite Mustang.
That’s right, Hogan was a true gearhead with an impressive garage, all thanks to his lucrative career. Thankfully, his ex-wife didn’t clean that out, so he was able to hold onto his amazing performance rides.

He had another ’69 Road Runner, one that’s black, but it didn’t appear in the footage.
The man proudly shows off his 1968 Dodge Charger R/T and the modification he added: a power switch located behind the driver-side headlight. In addition, the classic Mopar was on a trickle charger.
By far, the most lust-worthy ride in Hogan’s garage was his 1971 Plymouth Hemi ‘Cuda painted Plum Crazy. It’s packing a big 426 with a shaker hood, making it the kind of dream ride so many want.

We also know Hogan owned at least one Hellcat, a Gunslinger with a 6-speed manual. He took to social media to ask his followers for help after a dealer’s service department couldn’t fix an issue with the air conditioning.
While Hulk Hogan was a big Mopar muscle car fan, he had a black Chevy Caprice sitting in his garage. With striking red pinstriping, it looked cool and we can respect the ride.
Undoubtedly, Hogan owned many other cool rides we didn’t even get to see. More importantly, the man was a real gearhead who loved muscle cars. Maybe he’s riding in one right now through those pearly gates.
