 Hey! Thats in Cuyahoga Falls!! I got a pic of the Chally several months ago.  :2thumbs: If I'd had known that guy was a MoPar guy I'd spent more time at his shop, (I think he was there) and talked D'English with him!! (Dodge English). BTW, those are nice Chargers, guess I'm headin' up Route 8 this weekend!!  :2thumbs:

Sorry guys, I do know this is a Charger only thread.

Saw this one today near the Oregon state fairgrounds in Salem.

I think that's Dane (Daytona Guy)'s kids car if I'm correct...I'll have to look into it.

Very possible since Dane lives in Salem.

with all the new laws at the DMV protecting privacy what are you going to get from the plates anyway??
You got that right.  I got a lawyer and everything and CA DMV will not budge.  They know my previous but will only tell me it's Jon Marks.  :brickwall:
You got the name, now do you have the county? If you have both of those you can pull public records from the property appraiser. You may end up with multiple listings but you have a base.
Trust your Woobie!

you can also do a white pages search, more results but still something, still better if you know the state and county to narrow it all down

Dude, My best friend's dad has a 69 Charger R/T that red with black vinyl top and has a 440 Magnum, 727 automatic transmission with a dana 60 rear end! I got to ride in it the other day, and it was frickin' sweet!!!!

Saw an orange 71 or 72 Charger this morning on the way to work. It was loud and sounded good, he flew past so quick I didn't have a chance to snap a cell phone picture.

66-67 - never
68-70 - other than the guy that shows up at Bob's cruise night with his 69 MAYBE 1 every couple years or so
71-74 - fairly often but all of them are beaters desperately in need of a little love... kinda sad that these people can't even wash their cars or try to even keep a decent coat of paint on them

You would think that in LA with the insane car culture there would be more.

wow small world, I live in nearby Northfield and I go past that building (the old Summit Sound and Security) and see that Challenger on my way to my girlfriends house in Munroe falls every other day :2thumbs:

Yeah, I was on a local Biker run for some fallen soldiers and right before we took off I notice this 71' R/T in the parking lot. :2thumbs:
Man, this Charger was clean as could be.  :drool5: :drool5:


I could not make it to the Norwalk Classic but this made up for it. :D

Saw a sublime green 1970 Dodge Charger few days ago in peak hour traffic near Anandale which is close to the city in Sydney AUS. Whoever owned that thing, it looked hot turning that corner when he got a green light and cruising straight past. Thats the 2nd one I have EVER seen in 27 years of my life just out and about.

Last week, I saw a lime Superbird or Daytona going south on IH-35 near New Braunfels/San Marcos, Texas.  Also that same week, I saw a General Lee being towed on a flatbed near Austin, TX.

I've also spotted three Challengers (all projects), one RR (68-69?), and one 71-74 Charger.

I see them from time to time in So Cal. But I'm on the road 8-6 everyday and I cover a lot of area. I've seen the same 68-70 Chargers a few times even. Saw a driver/rough 70 Charger made into a Dukes clone a few weeks ago parked on a street.

The gold car is 71 (side marker lights).

Saw this guy today driving north on gratiot at 12 mile. It looks a lot like the one I saw a few weeks ago out by clarkston. I think there was a secret car show I was not aware of. There was some older blue convertible and a yellow '68 383 road runner driving along with us, you can see the road runner in the left lane. I also saw another brown muscle car behind them after I turned. I went to one spot where there used to be shows, but it was not there so I dunno. Anyway, it was a '70

Another third gen about a mile from my house. I started seeing it once school started because this year I drive a different route to a different school. Finally remembered to take my camera with me. It's parked at this cocktail lounge pretty much every day so apparently the owner likes the hooch.

What are those little round things on the tail lights? never seen those B4.  :shruggy:

Called "bulls eye" they come in red or blue I think. It's a glass bead with a chrome ring with tabs on it, you drill a hole and mount it.Old school stuff, the glow is cool when you get right over the light bulb.

 Blu Dots can be illeagle depending on where you are,.. i allways wanted to do blu dot sequential on a '69 just for the cool factor...
