My own mom was cooler than Dom!

 

[chargervert]

Hey third gen guys......who's yo daddy!

 

[chargervert]

Even our own RC says second gen Charger R/T!

 

[chargervert]

The riders on the storm drove a second generation Charger too!

Petty didn't race second generation Chargers,he was stuck with an areodynamic brick of a Plymouth when the areo wars happened. He got disgusted when Plymouth refused to let him drive a second generation Charger aerocar and left to drive for Ford. If not for Petty leaving to race for Ford,and Dodge having already done all the aero work already for Plymouth,There would have never been a Superbird built.

The Plymouth, with it's more sloped back window was still a lot better than the 1968 Charger at high speed. Plymouth won three times as many races that year. The Charger was the real brick.

Joe Dirte would drop 900k on a second gen anyday!

The Plymouth was the most cheated racecar the Pettys ever ran. Look at the windshield and vent window. Part of the reason there are templates today. It was a different story in 69.

Third gens are just watered down versions of second gen Chargers! Lol

you know what’s worse than listening to Chevy and Ford guys whining about Mopars? Mopar guys whining about other Mopars.

Been around since the old muscle cars were still new and owned a few from GM and mopar. I took a lot of chit from non-mopar guys in their Fords and GM’s including my elder brother who hated mopars. My brother had a fast ride, purported to be none faster in our town back when winning a lot, a Ram IV GTO – until he was blown off by a 440+6 Cuda. But, I liked many models of muscle, regardless of brand. MO, guys that were all ***-hair aflame based on one brand or the other, I’d get to asking them to define exactly what it is they didn’t ‘like’ about mopars. Lol, cuz they liked their Ford or Chevy, that’s - why. Lol. Their dad owned one, their brother, family tradition…tribal like. Same can be said of Dad’s owning mopars. The volume of selection of muscle mopars is VAST. Stands to reason, MO guys have their preference of one over the other. Trashing one over the other, MO, petty BS, as there is a ton to like with many of them? Ok, they improved over the era, until they didn’t and beauty is always in the eyes of the beholder. Some, like my dear-brother, have the habit of thinking what THEY have is all and only the best and the other is crap. A trait of braggarts and often coupled with bull-shitters.

Don't forget the '68 Charger in Christine! Oh look, no hub caps!

 

[chargervert]

You see,these "Suspects" they ain't gonna get away! My top end is unlimited!

Got my 8x10 just last week; signed by Petty & Inman!

The above picture came from the Petty Museum website. Presented here for illustration purposes, but signatures not shown.

A fine looking machine. I need one to park next to my 2nd gen Charger.

 

[chargervert]

Second gens really fly and third gens run like they are tied to a tree!
