Probably a toss-up between the wing cars and 3-gens. Funny, all this discussion about aero, yet Petty had a monster year-of-the-ages in 67 with his Satellite. What got my attention to Mopars !

I doubt it. Petty won the championship and 21 wins in his road runner. Baker only 1, didn't even finish in the top ten points.

It was probably 77.

Who here would quietly sneak up to a thief under the car trying to get the cat, and quickly release the floor jack handle ?

Some outfit, can't recall their name, custom built "what could've been" 3rd gen Daytona and Superbird, some years ago. I then recall seeing them up for sale for some stupid money.

Didn't need the cone & wing, they were designed aerodynamically already as is. The cone/wing for the Tona & Bird were added to attempt to correct horrible aerodynamics on the 68-70 style. As far as engine performance, the gov't/insurance tandem were the culprits, for all manufacturers.

The dual fours on the Hemi were not very streetable. Whereas, running a center 2-bbl with another 4-bbl secondary made a much better overall street-friendly performance combo. And, no 4-bbl ever walked away from me back in the day.

My favorite hero: my Dad, who fought and survived the Battle of the Bulge in WWII.

Sorry, didn't realize it was in GD. I deleted my post to concur. Please delete your post #7 to remove my commentary. Thank you.

Today... THE MOST IMPORTANT holiday. Without those who gave the ultimate sacrifice... we would not have any other holidays. We owe what we have to those. May God reward them with eternal peace.

BINGO !! I noticed the red switch was changed from on to off, then I noticed him hiding it, but caught a glimpse of the switch illuminated BEFORE any "power" was generated.

It's a trick. I noticed something, wonder if anyone else did.

Huh ? As I stated, the 3rd gen won FOUR championships with King Richard, and he stated he preferred the Charger, which he retained as long as permitted. Since the 75 style reverted to the aerodynamic brick.

Strictly aerodynamics, Chrysler had to do extensive mods to the prior gen bricks-on-wheels to attempt to render them competitive. And succeeded with the Daytona and Superbird. Subsequently, the aerodynamics resulted in the next gen styles. Hence, 71,72,74,75 championships for Mr. Petty.

If I only read MCG for the Reading between the Lines, and Enviro-masochism articles, it would be worth it. Rob Wolf is the only mag editor who's got the balls to tell it like it is.

The 71-74 B-bodies, both Dodge and Plymouth, were better in so many different ways than their predecessors. If only they were able to keep the previous higher compression/performance engines.

Happy Birthday
