Thanks for the article. I knew about them and the Dude. I’ve always wanted an earlier, through 71, but back in the day it was easier to get parts for the later models. Dodge never sold the volume that Ford or Chevy did. I also liked the International pickups, had a couple. Actually took 3, to...

I know exactly how you feel sir. Bought my first Mopar new in 1978, the year I graduated high school. It wasn’t a Challenger, of course, it was a D150. Owned many new and used Dodge trucks and cars since. I picked up a 93 D150 2 years ago. It isn’t a tin grill, it’s a first gen, which I had...

So sorry for your loss, sir. It’s great having people in our lives who leave their lasting legacy. Sending thoughts and prayers to you and your family.

Great looking car, I hope you find it!

One of my old foreman back in the day, bought a new GLHS. Buddy, that thing would move. Another bought a turbo Daytona, that would too! It did take getting used to the pulling instead of pushing with the power.

That is fantastic, sir! Great looking RR!

Used to have that on my jukebox.

This one was a very light metallic green with black stripes. I haven’t seen it yet. I will when I get back over there. Kevin (his son) was showing me pictures. They both were very disappointed. Glen nearly bought one from Volo. I told him, I knew the owners. I don’t know why he passed on it. It...

Yes sir, 10% from both sides. That’s a good markup, especially considering the amount of cars that go through a typical auction. Glen had bought quite a few cars from various auctions. He has Reggie Jackson’s 56 Chevy, in the 5 car attached garage. I was doing a small job for his son, he’s the...

I’m doing work for a guy who just paid about 80 grand for a 69 4 speed GTX, at Mecum. It was supposedly a few year old restoration. This was the first Mopar he’d ever bought. He has nine Ferraris, other European exotics and about 8 American classics. He did buy it online, which surprised me...

Heck sir, get a tire buddy. The ones the truckers use. I got both my sisters and my daughters one, when they we were younger. Put a heavy strap on it. I guarantee you it will stop whatever, in its tracks. I’ve been hit with bats twice from so-called tough guys. I won’t deny, it hurt but, seeing...

Back in about 85, my dad used to walk about 3 miles a few times a week. He used to take our old pit with him, until he got too old. One day I was over and had my pit with me and dad told me there was a house where the guy would let his Doberman just run loose. He said the dog would rush him and...

Thought and prayers for your sister and your family sir. I saw a couple others who were on the mend, God bless you all.

Take it easy and get well soon, sir.

When my son was in scouts (eagle), we would accept old flags and dispose of them properly. Now that we've moved, I’ve given our old flags to my neighbor. His grandsons are in scouts and he takes care of them for me. I’ll have to get the troop information to keep the honor going. Thank you for...
