Screen shot from the late 60's movie, "Goodbye Columbus". The Mopars are only shown briefly in the background, a couple times, and never leave the driveway.

The red (or white) wheel wells on the 53-54 Buick Skylark were painted. The 70-71 Olds 442 front fenderwells mentioned were painted red and the red was also visible when you opened the hood. (edit: I have been corrected. The red front fender wells on the 442 were plastic, not metal.) On the 442...

Very few glass shops have techs who are old enough to remember how to install the old style windshields with gaskets. I too had a glass shop give up after several attempts at sealing the windshield after body work and paint. Now a buddy has found a local independent auto glass installer that...

If its a 68 Dodge, then the original color was most likely green. It seems most late 60's and early 70's Dodges were painted green. If you aren't convinced, check the fender tag, or look in hidden areas as others have suggested.

You might also try Rob's Rod Shop in Downingtown, Pennsylvania. Rob works on all kinds of 70's and earlier cars, but its Mopars only in his own collection. http://www.facebook.com/pages/Robs-Rod-Shop-LLC/208109962620975

I had new gaskets front and rear from Steele Rubber Parts, and new clips from RT Specialties when I had a glas shop that I've used several times before on my Mopars, replace the windshield and reinstall the back glass on my 67 Coronet hardtop. They had the car a week getting the gasket to sit...

Yes, that GTX in the pics is the 67 bright blue color. It is the brightest blue that was available in 67, and was available on A and B bodies. An almost identical color was available on C-bodies, but I think it was just called Medium Blue metallic for c-Bodies. My 67 Coronet hardtop was that...

66-68 B-body consoles (except 66 Charger) all looked the same, except that the back piece on the 66, was a separately molded piece. This was so the front part of the console shell could be used as part of the 66 Charger's full length console. For 67 and up, the console shell was all molded...

Sometimes the stamp is deep enough to be visible on the under side of the metal by holding a mirror under the rail where the number is stamped.

I guess the whole point of Cars in Barns is that treasure could be hidden away pretty much anywhere. It could be around the corner from you and you might never know. I was in my house for seven years before finding out a neighbor, that I hadn't met, on the next street over had a 68 4 speed 340...

Here are a couple pictures of my 68 Charger taken a month ago before sending it off to the body shop. Quarter panels have been cut off since then.

Nice 69 Charger. As for the Sherriff's car, I noticed the stripe on the back looks like a cross between a 70 Cuda hockey stick stripe, a bumble bee stripe and maybe a little strobe stripe from an AARCuda thrown in. Did your county's police cars always have stripes like that?

Great video. Really like your RT 66 road trip. Maybe some day I'll be able to do that trip. Sort of reminds me of the road trip in the movie "Fandango". I also want to do a road trip down the Pacific Coast Highway some day.

Well I can't fault the guy. Not everyone has the ability to store a future project indoors. My 68 Charger has been sitting in my driveway for years. I've had several people ask me to sell it. I never wanted to sell it cause, like so many with a classic car in the yard, I've always planned to...

I took a few pictures at the Mopar Nats and at Carlisle and thought I would post links to them here. 66-67 B-bodies at the Mopar Nats http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=21848&id=100001111775214&l=f40edf8a16 68-69 B-bodies at the Mopar Nats...

66-67 interior rear quarters are the same on B-body Plymouth and Dodge convertibles. Only the small section of upholstery differs. 68-70 B-body convertible interior rear quarters are shared between those model years but won't fit on a 66-67 B-body convertible.

Another clue is that the blue interior door panel seen in the photos of the rusty floor, is a blue door panel that was used on the 70 Satellite and Road Runner, but not on the Sport Satellite.

The 1970 Satellite convertible was available with everything from a slant six to the 383 4bbl. (no 440 and no Hemi available). Big blocks would be rare though. In 1970, the Only B-body Plymouth convertibles were Satellites and Road Runners. The GTX and Sport Satellite convertibles were...
