I saw Don's 'Cuda & shot it just 'cause I had a '69 & I liked it. Didn't get to talk with him.

Yes. The whole thing is a bit over the top, but with that motor, he can do whatever he wants to? :D

Something tells me that those tires arent street legal, haha Generally true, but they have different rules for Classics in Detroit. You should hear some of these cars & the cops just wave as they go by. ;)

Tires have some grooves... so that should be good enough... LOL!

Which show was this?

very nice shots Frank
second last is my favourite


not too unlike a shark from the rear and the steering wheel is maybe representing fish scales :confused:
{:p} < for all those who think I am crazy suggesting that


:evil: (seeing as the reg. mentions a hot fish)

That was the CEMA Show that's held every two weeks.
(Chrysler Employee Motorsport Association) (seeing as the reg. mentions a hot fish) Good guess Marie, except the "fish" comes from the original name Plymouth Barracuda. ;)

Thanks for the comments!

Cool shots. Like the last (rear view) best.

For Mopar, I had a '68 Charger (383), and a '67 GTX with the 440 Magnum (GTX - a Satellite with hood scoops). With the GTX, if I banged 2nd gear just right, I could put a pack of cig's on the dash in the back seat.

You bet they were. I wanted to get a 'Cuda like you had, but nobody would sell.

This guy gets my adrenalin pumping whenever I hear it:
