WOW, Mr. Major Who Ran The Mopar Survivor Displays Passed Away.....

[66ChargerHI-PO]

I heard about this today thanks to a good friend that he sadly passed away on the 17th of this month. It's VERY sad news to hear about this, as I got the privilege of meeting him and Mark (or @Richard Cranium) this year in Carlisle at the survivor tent and having our 1970 Fury III in the display.

Rest In Peace Mr. Major, you will most definitely be missed.


Here is the obituary.......

Sad news. I've had my Cordoba in his tent a few times. R.I.P. Mel, thank you for your devotion to the Mopar hobby.

 

[Richard Cranium]

I got the privilege of meeting him and Mark (or @Richard Cranium) this year in Carlisle at the survivor tent and having our 1970 Fury III in the display.

The pleasure of meeting me was all yours.

But seriously.....

When I applied for the survivor tent this year, Mel & I had a few emails going back and forth about my 66 Belvedere II, which had spent its life in Chicago until I bought it. Mel was particularly interested in it because that's where he grew up. Rounding up cars for the survivor tent was his passion. I've had three cars in the tent over the years and Mel & I talked about bringing another car in next year. I wonder if his son will carry the torch?

RIP Mel.
