I agree Mack. re the new car, the classic challenger b-5 would have been perfect if they got the color right like the lovely superbird behind it!

Up here in Mass, while my 79 Lil Red express was being restored and repainted in 1992-3, I found myself, without a vehicle. I would walk from the commuter rail through Reading to Woburn, and down a side street, the unmistakable tail of a superbird parked in the driveway. White, 4 speed 440-6 if I deciphered the vin correctly. I left my card on the car a few times, then after a two years, told the biggest Mopar car trader I have ever know about the car Mike Ditto of Palmer Mass. Mike hammered out a deal and I am sure that the car was rapidly resold for a tidy profit and has long since been restored.

For me, the thrill of scouring the want advertiser, calling and talking about a car or part, and then driving out to view the cars and parts is something I miss. Internet and EBAY have changed a lot of that. Lots of parts donor cars, and cars not worthy of driving, led me down the path of the best maintained, most rust free mopars around....ie race cars! Enjoy the cars in barns while it lasts.

Race cars in barns would be even nicer!
