My uncle bought it new, sold it to his dad and I own it now. Just got it running after an 11 year slumber. It isn't registered or insured so can't really drive it far. Just dying to take some pictures of it.

QUOTED IMAGE

It's a beauty & looks pretty good right where it sits! I like this angle best.

what an awesome looking machine!


some fairly old canon camera stuff, canon lenses, Manfrotto "thingy", and an M5, also an M6 that has had a 720nm filter bolted onto the sensor:

Thanks. I wasn't sure if I liked it. I tend to shoot low, so low that I had a local Sheriff (friend of mine) stopped to make sure I wasn't injured. I was laying on the street by the sidewalk/curb.

That is my favorite year of Dodge. Always wanted the R/T version in red, and with the Hemi. ;-)a

And maybe throw in an Arc of the Covenant? :) ;)

Right there with you, except my dream Chrysler was either a Superbee or a GTX. again, convertible, with all the "Holy Grail" accoutrements.
