    First high-speed test, 1969 Charger Daytona at Chelsea Proving grounds, July 1969

    Chrysler prepared the low speed #71 car (shown below) and had it painted like the #88 for museum donation. By the time the donation was made, the real 88 car was racing in USAC with Don White as a '73 Charger. The older mule car had no racing value, where the real 88 was a viable race car at...

    First high-speed test, 1969 Charger Daytona at Chelsea Proving grounds, July 1969

    Faster with tires that are not hockey pucks and modern shock tech. They still have a lot of frontal area compared to a modern car. Would be a heck of a thing to see.

    What's it Worth Thinking of selling my dad's Superbird

    I remember this car and your dad well. Saw it many times. Real low miles 6bbl car. The B5 Ohio U code car that recently sold for 210k had experienced enthusiasts looking at it thinking 140k-$160k. It was a sealed bid auction. They got blown out of the water. I don't think there are...

    Tony's Auto Parts... Not Thrilled

    This is all small potatoes and completely not necessary. You seem to have received your stuff in a reasonable period of time. If you don't like the quoted ship charge, you do have the option to not buy. End of story. Sure it wasn't "cheap", but complaining about it here seems like a...
