Oxford Dodge (London, ON Canada) Mopar show - Sept. 18, 2021

[Imperial One]

I attended a show yesterday at a local Chrysler dealer. I'd say the turnout was more than 100 cars and included a pretty decent display of older cars (50's and early 60's), general muscle cars, some 60's land yachts, a really nice factory 440-6 Sport Fury GT, and some trucks, including two of the convertible Dakotas. Some new stuff too, including my Hellcat Redeye. Here are a few of the photos. Crappy cell phone shots in difficult sun. Did the best I could.

I ran into my first cousin Murray at the show. First time I have seen him since the pandemic. I title this photo "Two Old Guys With Grey Hair" (or "A Touch of Grey" for you Jerry Garcia fans). During the pandemic his mom died. No service. A vivid reminder of what we've lot.

Murray has a 70 Roadrunner 383 4 speed car and a 66 Charger 318 poly. His need for speed was started by me years ago when he was a young teenager and I was in my early 20's with a hemi Satellite and a Superbird. Here's the photo:

And another on "wide angle" to get my large stomach in the photo. Note the Reyn Spooner Hawaiian shirt!

THANKS for the photos! Makes me feel things are getting back to normal. If I had known, I would of come out.

Nice show, thanks for the pictures. I see a FCBO members t&c wagon, and that 6bbl GT is Mr. Wheeler's car. Very nice cars

In the '80's if Dave stood sideways and stuck out his tongue he looked like a zipper. He's blow away in a strong breeze. I guess that's what married life and a desk job do to some folks !! ;-)

Here's photos I took at London Oxford Dodge show. We had a beautiful day, weatherwise, and dealership put on a pulled pork and salads lunch for us. I took b-body pictures, but there was lots else, including a 1931 Chrysler Imperial club coupe, hotrodded with a big block in place of the straight eight. Another hot rod was a 1934 Dodge humpback panel truck with a 340.

Here's mine. The '67 R/T has been on the road for about 30 years. The "64 Polara is currently under construction. I have owned it since 1980 as second ever owner. This is its third rebuild over the years, but this time it is being done right.

Hey Dave:

In regard to the '64 Dodge that was at the show it looks very much like one I bought around 30 years ago at the Mopar Nationals. I was wondering if it is the same car. Any idea how long the owner has owned it? I don't remember who I sold it to but it would have been around 1993 when I did sell it.

My friend,Bob, has owned this car since about 1980. He bought it in London. It originally had a white top.
