So what's the "scoop" here Merna? :)
Brings back the old days when I owned a 74 Dodge Challenger with a 318.
It could really get up & go..Of course I was 20 something and 120 mph was no big deal ;-))
Well done & thanx! #8766646

Hi Howard: We have had this car for about 15 years. It is 23 thousand miles on it and has never been touched. It also has all the correct paperwork. Just not the best ride for a root beer.
So nice to hear from again, Merna

G'day *MERNA*!

Many Aussie congratz for your EP for this auto shot that is so reminiscent of the 'Star Wars' films.
Lovely smooth lines and a very pleasing colour combo help bring this image to life and your point of view and framing create a nice abstract feel to it.

Hi Dennis: This wonderful ‘MOPAR’ won the Nationals in 1997 with a score of 98 out of 100. The reason it got marked down is that it had the wrong valve caps on the tires.
It has 23,000 original miles on it and was used by the previous owner to run drugs across the border into Mexico. The owner became afraid of being caught and parked it in his barn for several years.
This is where we found it and purchased it sight unseen.
It has won “Best of Show” at every concourse show since then. All the numbers match, and we have all the correct papers. I will post a photo of the entire car soon. We don’t get it out to often, only at the shows that provide a class for it. Merna

Beautiful Mopar "shaker"! Never owned one, but have had too many muscle cars that I would love to have back... 69 Shelby Colbra GT 350, 69 Camaro Indy Pace cars... GTO Judges, Hurst Olds...old 'vettes. If I were able to go back to my teen years and get these back! #8981098

Merna L. Nobile October 18, 2010

Thank you for the nice comment, we hear this a lot at all the car shows. Merna #8981389
