Title: Old Mopars in the wild
Post by: 1969chargerrtse on December 30, 2008, 11:19:26 AM
I know we have a " Chargers in the wild  "  thread but I can't seem to find a " Old Mopars in the wild " thread so I started one.
Here's a car I saw sitting in a parking lot of a restaurant.  There's a note on it saying it's broken down with a number to call.  Bucket seats and a stick on floor, kind cool looking car.
So if you see any old Mopars still out there, being used or not. Show us a picture, and tell us a story.  ;D

Just went to McDonalds because I was starving and when I came around the drive-thru after placing my order....."holy damn!  A 340 'cuda!"  And my brother always wonders why I like to take a camera with me  :rotz:  It's a 1970 with a black interior and automatic on the column

I've found thousands of Mopars in the wild and I don't think the site would appreciate all those pictures popping up on here.

Just take a look here and see some of what is around.

Look what kept following me on the Power Tour!

No problem, enjoy.  I'm doing the 09 Power Tour as well.  I will either be in soon to be bough 09 Challenger R/T or the 71 Challenger R/T.  I could always get the 69 Charger going.... nah.

The 08 Power Tour was incredible.  I can't wait to do it again.

Also finding old cars in fields is a good time too!

That was for sale in Salt Lake a couple years back...someone's hatchet job. Actually, it could have looked worse, but the guy wanted some larger-than-reality price for it. :eek2:
I got these pics when I spotted it in the parking lot at my work.

Wing,  You're wrong about the "duster"  lol.  Its a 74 360 4spd Dart Sport. It is a very solid project that we are going to get and sell. It has the factory hood scoop as well as factory v21 hood paint. Good colors too. The best part is, is it is a complete car. I have more pics of it. To bad your not a little closer and a little older. It would be a great car for you. It already has disk breaks on the front, so you would only have to ad them to the rear per your mothers requests. lol. I have a few more pics of it I can email you if you want. Just pm me your email and I will forward them to you. 

Since I am here, here are a few more wild mopars.

I agree Cody, makes me feel bad. I don't think I ever showed you the pics before we took the shed off did I?

No problem tan top. Most of those pics I have took. Out of all of them. There is probably less than 5 that I was not present.

I look at it as though there is still hope to find your dream car. I am still looking for my next HEMI car. I made a promis that I will keep my next HEMI car no mater what it is. I have already let two to many go.
It is also proof that if you open your eyes and look, they are still out there. Every single one of those pics where taken in the past eight years.

So I'm running up to my kids school to grab my daughter after a basketball game, and what do I see?
Wow, this is one nice looking car.  I talked to the shop guy and he said he works on the guys Challenger and his triple black 68 charger. :drool5:  He said he built the motor for the guy and it's dyno'd at 600 and something hp.  He said the 727 is only a year old and can't handle the power so he has to build it in some way.  He said the guy has the matching number engine all rebuilt boxed up.  The rope is so he can drag the car in and out of the garage.

I know the story on those cars. Here is the story told by a member from Cuda-Challenger.


"I toured the yard wanting to get a roof for my 73 Challenger. I was very familiar with the yard, and had struck up an amicable trust withthe owner of the yard. Not the friendliest guy in the world, but an interesting guy nonetheless. We found a roof worthy of a cut-job, and made an agreement for purchase of $500. Kinda steep, what you pay is for proximity I figured. 1/2 down, 1/2 on pick-up. The owner of the yard marked the cuts to be made, and told me that he would have it ready for pick up in 2 weeks. (He had a swap meet the next weekend). No problem. I gave it almost 2 weeks, calling on Thursday. I had a funny feeling because friends that live nearby said that they had a fire in the yard. So I called  to check in to confirm pick up on Saturday, just to ensure that everything was kosher.
I spoke with the owner and he told me that the guys who were cutting off the roof off the car started a fire. He told me that 5 cars burned up pretty bad, and I should have a look. When I arrived, I searched the yard with the owner, and we could not find the roof at first glance. Once he showed me the carnage of what was left of the cars I deduced that the roof was probably wasted as well. When we did find the roof, I apologetically and calmly told him that the roof would no longer be worth my time. I wtold him I would be happy to see if there was something else in the yard that would be worth my money. "

When I was on lunch break from work I spotted what I thought to be an old mopar sitting behind a bunch of bushes. I proceeded to drive back and forth along the road EIGHT times to confirm that it was indeed a red challenger. :icon_smile_big:

I going to try and leave early for school tonight to get a picture of it.

Funny thing is I don't know how many times Ive gone up and down that road purposefully LOOKING for something like this.

This is the best picture I was able to get. Looking at it closer I think there might by a ?challenger? convertible next to it (look for the orange and black hood and the windshield frame. What do you guys think?

 A couple of friends and I went to a motorcycle sale today to see the bikes and meet a local radio personality "Maxwell" of "The Maxwell" show (100.7 WMSS Cleveland). This '71 Chally was sitting across the street from the motorcycle place (State 8 Motorcycle Mall). Very nice car although I'm not a huge fan of the 20" wheels! Other pic. is of me with Maxwell.

Well, I went to check all the finds Ive posted in this thread so far:

The 1969 roadrunner in the field: Talked to the neighbor, seemed pretty nice. He said the owner had sold (it wasn't there when I went to check) but directed me to the proper mailbox in case I wanted to contact him about it or any other cars he might have.

The 1973 charger behind the fence of the storage place: Talked to the person in the office. Kind of a dick. He never told me if he was in charge of the area with the car or not. Him "No this is a storage area, the cars aren't for sale". Me-"Oh, well is there a way of contacting the owner just in case he decided to sell it?", to which he just repeats the previous statement.  :rotz:

The challengers I posted about fairly recent: Success! Talked to the owner of the land they're on. Nice guy, gave me the number of the owner straight away and then let me walk back and take pictures of them.
Unfortunately Im at school for another 3 hours but rest assured they will be up tonight. They are for sale according to the land owner though he had no idea of the price. He was surprised I was able to see them haha.
Anyway, they're both amazingly solid and complete. The "convertible" actually had the roof cut off and was apparently in a movie?

Here are the vin numbers, pics to come soon!

Hardtop: JH23L0Bl86803

"Convertible": JS29N0El08805

According to my googling the second one is an R/T isn't it?
Oh and what does price class "high" mean?

Alright, talked to the seller. He wants to sell them ASAP, he's got one offer from a guy he works with for 10,000 (both of them). That guy has yet to come up with the cash but he'll be meeting with him today for lunch. If it falls through, I get them both for 8,500. I am trying SO hard not to get my hopes up but man, if you guys could say a prayer or cross your fingers or keep your black cats inside that would much appreciated. He'll be calling later today he said to let me know.

Additional info: Both have everything still in them, the R/T has either a new or re-done 383 (I cant remember which:brickwall:) with less then 300 miles on it, granted it hasn't been started in 3 years. Oh and it was in Natural born killer.

 How awsome! Take LOTS 'O PICTURES!! So, the thinking prolly already has begun, what ya gonna do with the movie "convert" Chally?  Restore it? (Meaning add a roof back to it) or, possibly leave it "movie correct"? I'd wonder which gives it more value? My  :Twocents: ,? I'd leave it the way it is, aside from making it enjoyable/safe to drive fixing any mechanical issuies, etc. and DRIVE THE TIRES OFFA IT!! Cool.  :coolgleamA:

Ive got some photos of the move Ill post up for fun though!

The RT looks to be an SE judging from the interior but Im not sure how else to tell?
Oh and get this...my friend was telling me about another car he thought was a challenger he saw while driving to school. I didnt think much about it because I figured it probably wasn't a mopar at all.
Check out the picture he sends me:

looks like the convert was sublime under the rear bumper...
great pair to score like that... now you'll be needin a Cuda to match the convert,.. eh?..
what the hell happened to those cars?!  :shruggy:  :scratchchin:
Title: Re: Old Mopars in the wild
Post by: Finn on April 02, 2009, 01:27:36 PM
Thanks! Yeah it was definitely sublime. The coupe looks to be plum crazy too. There is purple showing through in a lot of various places. The fender tags are MIA though which is a bummer. Im hoping to find the build sheets but I havent looked yet.
Im going over to my buddies house tonight after class so if it is still light enough Ill try to get some more pics. The RT's front right fender got smacked unloading it from the trailer but its not too bad...I'm just glad it didnt mess up the grill.
It actually rolled back and pinned me against a gate once it was free...missed the jewels by about 2 inches :o.

Im curious about the Cuda though...I dont have room/money/time but Ill pass on any information I get.

Post by: C_stripes on April 12, 2009, 07:51:03 PM
It was a JS23 challenger R/T that someone cut the roof off of though. Not an orig convert.
Title: Re: Old Mopars in the wild
Post by: Finn on April 12, 2009, 08:23:42 PM
Correct, 8500 for both and yes the JS29 car was chopped.

On that subject, my friend and I got that one running yesterday!
Coughed out what looked like about 20 feet of mouse nest then it fired up like a champ.
AND the lights/signals/radio all worked. Radio sounded so good in fact we hooked up the ipod and went for a drive. It was a lot of fun till about 30 feet down the road it became evident that the carb needed to be tuned in more and the brakes locked up. :D
Title: Re: Old Mopars in the wild
Post by: 472 R/T SE on April 13, 2009, 08:40:58 PM
Finn, congrats on the score.  :2thumbs:

You don't see the folks with the Fast-n-Furious, Elanor rides converting them back to factory. 
Some may tell you to take the roof off the other one but the other one's not an SE.

IIRC, the "29" designation in the VIN means it was an SE.  Unlike our Chargers' there is no A47 on the fender tag, it's denoted by the VIN.

Good luck finding the broadcast sheet for the R/T SE, it's a LA car and more often than not don't have the sheets.  You may be lucky?
Other car's a Hamtramck ride, but since it's a small block the sheet may not be as important.

If it were me, I'd leave the "vert" as is but maybe reinforce the undercarriage.  It's quite the conversation piece as is.
Title: Re: Old Mopars in the wild
Post by: Finn on April 14, 2009, 12:32:19 AM
Thanks and thanks for the confirmation too. :cheers:
I thought the 383 (which the coupe is too) feel under the big block category for mopar?
Either way Ill be saving that one too. I could never bring myself to chop one car for another unless there is nothing left but the sole part needed. Plus the convertible is going to stay the way it is for now but like you said, frame stiffeners and toque boxes will be added. Was there any other key structural changes on convertibles?
Title: Re: Old Mopars in the wild
Post by: 472 R/T SE on April 14, 2009, 12:46:05 AM
My mistake, I didn't pay attention to the motor code of the non R/T car, I apologize.  So that's an even better score, two big block rides for what you paid.  :o

I didnt want to make a new thread but I figured you guys would get a kick out of it.

You can thank my brother for the close-ups of the speakers. :slap:
Next task is getting the coupe fired up. Found some paper work on it for an alignment back in 96 so there's hope of getting that one going fairly easily too.

Being that it's a '70 440 375hp motor, it has the big rods. Everyone practically calls them "six pack" rods, but the six pack had nothing to do with it. All 440 4bbls and 6bbls had the heavy rods, hence the counter weight added to the vibration dampner. '69 and earlier 440's all had the smaller rods, hence no counterweight.

TanTop.

In 1970, J would be a 340 six pack (AAR/T/A). To be a HEMI, it would be an R code car.

Took my car out for a Sunday morning cruise. As I'm getting on the 57N freeway, I look in my rearview to see if I can merge on and see a nice 68 sassy green roadrunner with AZ plates and hood black out stripes.

Nothing cooler than a chance meeting like that when out for a cruise!

Tried for additional pictures, but darn camera phone wasn't cooperating

I guess these really go a little beyond "In the wild" and a little more like the "Forgotten" cars since we had to cut our way in to these to get a decent pic.

I think the truck is a 64. Not sure if it's a 3/4 or a 1 ton, the car is a 68 Polara that has been sitting since late 87 or early 88. When it was parked it didn't have any rust. I had talked the guy out of the car but once we got the trees and weeds cut away, air the tires up and got the car pulled out. The rear brakes were stuck fast and we couldn't get them broke loose by moving it back and forth. I didn't have time to pulls the wheels and get them freed so I left it. I may try to make another trip up there some weekend. I did put a battery in it and the engine still turned over. 318 with factory air and power drum brakes.

 Been awhile since I've seen this thread or I've added to it.
This first green '68 was captured just this past Fri.
Won in a Official Plymouth contest in 1967 the participants were asked to list all the activities of a family seated at a picnic table... A strike at the factory meant the contest winner and eventual owner - had to wait for a '68 model which they were allowed to order as wished,.. I guess Convertable 340 S wasn't a bad choice,..
Just recently restofied by the second owner and incorporating all the modern tweaks like a Richmond five speed and TTI exhaust etc. and repainted a Honda Del Sol Green -  :scratchchin: which fooled me into thinking it was the '69 1/2 spring green at first... What an awesome car!.. The paint was Superb!  :drool5:
I told the owner Steve about this site, maybe he'll put in an appearance...  :shruggy:

I found a few Mopars today!  I had seen this Cornet parked on the street a month or so ago while out in the work truck, but didn't have time to stop on a 1 way street or park...  Today I found a spot and had time, so I took a walk.  Found it!

Found the Barracuda just driving by..  Looks like it got a new top, at and upholstery shop.  Couldn't find parking around there for the box truck to save my life.  Saw a big old C body while looking for parking tho.  Couldn't get a pic of that either.  Saw a Fury III later in the day too!

Also saw a Black B-body while I was at Papa Murphy's, but he was leaving as I was getting there...  It registered as a B-body, but couldn't place a model.. think maybe a late 60's Satellite.  Oh well, no pics of that one..

 Welp, upon reviewing this entire thread - there sure are a lot of CHARGERS on the old mopars in the wild thread....  :RantExplode:   :icon_smile_wink:

 here's a link to the (when was the last time you saw a) CHARGER in the wild thread...
 http://www.dodgecharger.com/forum/index.php/topic,49500.850.html

I don't really care, I'm just gettin' old and like to  :stirthepot:

Good morning Brock!  I'd like to put myself forward as a possitive roll model, who knows the difference between a Charger and an Old Mopar.    :nana:

Chased this Roadrunner around for a while but couldn't get side by side with him.  He kept punching it every time I got close.

Found these to at the end of my block yesterday. The brown on is a 69 with 68 fenders/grille. You cant really tell from the picture (only had my cell on me) but the other is a 68 in a really cool turquoise color. I don't know what paint code that is but man was it pur-tayyy! I talked to the owner, he works in the movie business and has a thing for mopars. Says he had 200+ chargers/challengers at one point. :drool5: Anyway, turns out he's moving his collection of parts/cars from Illinois out west to a shop right by me. He gave me his number and told me if I need a part he's probably got it. Sweet.

Hey Bama R/T.... that green '68 Barracuda, was that taken near Cullman? That's my wife's great-uncle's car. I have been wanting it for a long time. Its a plan-jane model with a slant 6/3-speed column shift with white interior. He bought it new and it has been sitting under that car port a long time (year registered on the tag is 1977). Its in great shape though.

Awesome finds, lots of good metal there.  Are they local to you, or just found in your travels?

Here's a 70 Charger R/T I discovered recently.

Another one a while earlier.

A 69 Earlier that weekend

(http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5169/5359001378_8d9beede34_z.jpg)

Funny thing is, these three Chargers are on a single road, but each about 30 miles apart.

And much... much more.

I spotted a '65 Belve with 426 Wedge, auto, black on black, and the kicker... 37,000 original miles on Saturday and I didn't have my camera :brickwall:. I did get to talk to the guy and he said he was gonna buy it several years ago and a "friend" wanted it so he let him buy it with the stipulation he would get first chance if it was ever sold. the car made it's way to California before he found it again in September of last year. it's still even got the oil change stickers from the dealership under the hood! Hopefully I will get some pics of it in May at a local dragstrip for an all Mopar day.

Saw me a 65 Monaco again, I've seen him around the neighborhood 3 or 4 times now!  Was at 7-11, and there he was, introducted myself briefly before left.  Car looks straight and MEAN!   :icon_smile_big:  Me and my ignorant self asked if he had a 440... before I realised that those weren't available until the late 60's.  :brickwall:  He said he's got a 413 in it.  This picture is from December..  I actually googled the car to find out what year it was, those tail light look bad ass in the dusk with the back end up in the air.

I posted pictures of this car last year.  I finally found someone home.  Looks like the 90 year lady that owned it is going to a home or something?  The daughter was there.  They took the plate off and are gonna list it in hemmings.  They think its a 440 car worth a ton of money.  I explained its nice that its a 2 door but 440 is the model number and probably eBay would be a better idea.  Whatever, old and beat but still kicking after all these years.

Isn't that the truth! They already hit it up with the paint pen too  :-\ Or maybe it's just a wax crayon/ grease stick kind of thing. Enjoyed your pictures of the '69 Charger and others you found too. You should drive over in yours and ask if you can check out some of the cars  :scratchchin:

Cuda looks sweet.

Ive always wanted the "joe dirt" kind of car....i mean make it "look" like crap, fake some rust on it, make it look faded and just generally crappy, ripped interior, cracked dash, faded faces on the gauges...but build the living crap out of the engine and of course have a rock solid chassis/wiring/suspension and just watch peoples mouths drop as you blow em away.

Can I use those pics on my website.....

JUST KIDDING....

Awesome finds, lots of good metal there.  Are they local to you, or just found in your travels?

Here's a 70 Charger R/T I discovered recently.

Another one a while earlier.

A 69 Earlier that weekend

(http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5169/5359001378_8d9beede34_z.jpg)

Funny thing is, these three Chargers are on a single road, but each about 30 miles apart.

And much... much more.

Shot by my wife's iphone on our trip back to Halifax today. I cruised up alongside, down shifted from sixth to forth and did a "Vanishing Point" on the guy! He wasn't long catching back up to me!!
When he finally took an off ramp he flashed his high beams and I gave him the emergency flashers as a salute!

Ain't Mopar people cool?  :2thumbs:

It's ironic you posted that pic. I spotted this yesterday in town after getting gas. After the picture, I pulled up along side of the guy and noticed the Barracuda emblems on the fenders. I then  asked about it, and he told me it was made from a '68 Barracuda notchback, and it had a 440 in it. I really wanted to get more pics, but the guy seemed like he was pissed off I was bothering him. So I didnt push it. I will say the front of the car looked really good like a real bird with all the correct black out markings. In fact, the first time I saw it, I thought it was a real Superbird til I realized it was a bit to small.

I posted this one on Moparts a few years ago and was pretty much threatened for not telling people where to find it. It's been there for about 25 years maybe, but "will be restored soon". It is a real A12 F6 4 speed.

Next to it is an all black 71 383 Roadrunner.

Both cars pretty much rust free.

I posted pictures of this car last year.  I finally found someone home.  Looks like the 90 year lady that owned it is going to a home or something?  The daughter was there.  They took the plate off and are gonna list it in hemmings.  They think its a 440 car worth a ton of money.  I explained its nice that its a 2 door but 440 is the model number and probably eBay would be a better idea.  Whatever, old and beat but still kicking after all these years.
We got the same picture same color car same side parked in the garage different car but in NJ

Yeah they were a big deal back in the day.  I remember seeing ads about them and all Mopar put into them.  Wasn't there even a Frank Sinatra edition?  This thing is used as a driver by a a vet at the Va.

Sorry Fred I wish. I am going to try to get a daily driver 68 going first. The car is up on blocks so it is not sitting and sinking into the dirt. I also took the carpet out years ago. And as you can see I hit the surface rust spots every year with some spray paint.

Oh so you've had it for a while? I thought maybe it was a new acquisition. Still any little maintenance re: rust helps.
Do you keep it under cover? she looks in pretty good nick. Good luck with the daily driver..........are you still looking or have you got one lined up?

Here is a picture of my old 73 Plymouth Road Runner that was my daily driver in the mid to late 90's. No garage,drove it rain snow or shine, 318 pistol grip 4spd. I sold the car and someone trashed it. What i do not understand is you sell something like this when it's 26 years old,still driven daily and then the buyer just trashes it.It's been off the road now for like 10-12 years with a window even busted out. :flame:

I had a chance to buy a '69 Coronet R/T in really nice shape but the guy wanted $14,000 for it. Blue with a black top, white tail stripe, 440 (not original), bucket seats, etc. Wish I would have had the money at the time.

I saw an orange '68 Charger up by Rush City, Minnesota today (7/22).

At least, the front clip was '68, and the bee stripe was a '68 style. In my rearview mirror, it looked like the taillights were '69 style, but I was on the freeway and moving fast. I know for a fact that the hood was flat black, despite the fact that the car was orange otherwise.

Anyone's here?

This 1975 Roadrunner is for sale and is a friends car, and was pulled from a barn here in Wisconsin. It has 97,000 original unrestored miles on it. It is a driver too. Only a 318 car though. And he wanted $8000, but has been offered $6000. Was going to take it, but the guy wouldnt pay cash for it. And he was from out of state, and Jim thought it sounded suspicious, so he turned it down.

This 1975 Roadrunner is for sale and is a friends car, and was pulled from a barn here in Wisconsin. It has 97,000 original unrestored miles on it. It is a driver too. Only a 318 car though. And he wanted $8000, but has been offered $6000. Was going to take it, but the guy wouldnt pay cash for it. And he was from out of state, and Jim thought it sounded suspicious, so he turned it down.

That's a really nice car. Would make a perfect daily driver. Hope he has luck with selling it.

Ghoste we checked out  the Union burger there and did a little grocery shopping when he pulled  through the lot on his way to McDonald's I believe next door. It was a really good looking car nice and  straight but never got to chat with him. It's 50 km door to door from our place to there it was a nice change and seeing it made my day  ;)

Wednesday was Waitangi Day which is our national day and a public holiday as well so we went on a car run with 187 others cars since the weather was so good. Cruised over with a mate in his Aussie hardtop 440 stroker and caught up with another mate in his Daytona. Sort of ''in the wild''  ;)

Staying in a hotel in Nashville while house hunting and ran across this tired but still sexy beast.   It's been sitting here without moving for three days so I had to snap some photos.    71-2 Sat/Runner/GTX are high on my covet list.  They just look mean.   Figured I'd share with the rest of the class:

   No picture as he had it under a tarp by the time I found it,but I have a 69 Cornet two blocks away from me now. It is Petty blue with a 6 pack hood and Cragars all around, looks to be just painted as no trim was on the car. I wonder what the guy has in his 2 car garage to leave it sit out. :icon_smile_question:

Saw what I'm pretty sure is a '68 Newport today while crusing the Beaches in the Jeep, probably 200 feet from the ocean.   Good to see an old sled like this getting some wheel time.

Well, It's a adopted Mopar anyway.

Saw this today. Looked to be unrestored. I had to pull over to get pictures, as this is only the second one I ever seen in person. 1971 AMC Hornet SC360 4spd. I been in a Hornet with a factory 304, and that was fast. I read these are very quick cars.

Yep, you can get 91, 95 and 98. Some smaller stations won't always have the 98 but generally you can get it everywhere. 100 octane fuel has popped up at some independent stations too, but I think it's an ethanol blend.

Cool! What about the red Cuda, what kind of shape was it in?

That Cuda was set up for the track. Only had drivers seat. Had roll bar, and nitrus set up in the passenger area. 440 engine, but if I remember it was a 318 car. At first it was for sale, but it had rust, bad, he wanted 11k for it. he said his brother paid that when he bought it (i think that was too much). I had offered 6k and that's when he told me what his bother had paid. He kept calling it a 440 cuda car, but the VIN stated different. I just let it go, i wanted that super bee. when I went to pick up that super bee and the two other cars i bought, he told me that the sister was keeping the car and she wanted to restore it in her bothers memory. It did have a new grille in the box and new interior all in a shed. He did have a rust free 383 cuda, but the VIN off the dash was missing and i didn't want to deal with that. plus it was just a shell, no hood or front fenders or interior. This guy must of had about 40 cars total. i had a thread somewhere on here that has the story. i can try to find it. i have a feeling i might get a call about that red cuda someday. i told him that if he had any mopar stuff that didn't sell in the estate sale, to call me. and i think that when the sister sees the work that is going to be needed to get that cuda going, he might offer it to me. but who knows, i am not much of a E body guy. but hey, it is a mopar i can help save.

What is it with Redding having so many classic Mopars? My friend used to live there from 2004 to 2010. Their Kool April Nites show is huge. I recall talking to a guy that was the original owner of a 1970 Charger in the show. White with a 383. I cannot recall much else about the car but it was in nice condition.

I lived in Redding,CA in 1984- 1988 and there were lots of Mopars then.  I knew of a 1968 black Hemi Charger R/T that was driven by a little old lady.  I knew of a guy that had a 1970 Charger R/T.  At the time it had a 383 in it but he said one day he sanded the hood down and after getting through the layers of paint he realized he sanded through a Hemi sticker on the good.  Turns out it was an original Hemi car...hemi missing.  Yes, there are lots of Mopars in Redding.

Probably this '70 Charger. These photos are from 2007. I talked to the guy, original owner, 383, 4-speed. Also has original paint (obviously my '68's paint isn't original  ;))

Your welcome for the photos. White is the original color of my car, but it's been repainted at some point since '68, likely with a $500 Maaco special. Looks ok from 20 feet, and looks to be a different shade than original, if compared to the '70.

If they moved the gas filler off driver side it does not seem to be anyplace on passenger side either
Wonder if it is even sitting on the original frame any more ??

That's a good possibility about the frame.  Side note - the tube is likely on the passenger side, below the door handle level, and the picture as shown just did not capture the lower body well enough.

I looked closely and detect a coil spring around the front shock.  I'm sure those trucks had front leaf springs, not coils.  And they were solid single axles, so not sure how a coil spring could be added to a solid axle.  Either a whole new suspension has been "franken-dodged" into the frame, or it's a different frame.  Just my guesses.

Super cool truck as is.  66 years old, a wild Mopar, and still truckin'  :2thumbs:

All old Mopars over here are left a hand drive. Apart from those strange Auzzie specs ones they never built any RHD ones as far as I can tell. I did look into converting my 69 to RHD using Auzzie specs Charger parts.....but the dash is just too ugly...so LHD it stays. Its not a problem (just got to be more careful overtaking) and I've owned two LHD cars before, Lancia Delta Integrale and a Beetle!

Let's see...Bob Seger's Beautiful Loser album was released in April 1975, so that pic must have been taken near that time. The '71 Chally there looks like it's already having a rough life in it's first 4 years, judging from the dings & dents.

Awesome picture.  The Challenger is headed east, it's on Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood.  Today it's known as West Sunset and it's West Hollywood.

The Whisky is still there, the gas station is long gone.

In the new photo there is a Mopar at the same corner, an orange Jeep, headed eastbound.

Here's a close-up. It could be '71 base/Super Bee or 73/74 non SE due to the red lens proximity to the bumper border.

Unknown if it is for sale. Guessing it isn't though. The truck did not have a for sale sign on it, and it may/may not have an actual "owner". It was part of the scenery on display at a ghost town in Death Valley National Park.

Years back they were different cars.
Iirc, he tied into the rear subframes and had a U Haul type looking brace coming off them.  I know I took pix.
Definitely not a bumper hitch like we used years back.

I used air bags for my srt10 to keep the truck level.  He may have something similar since its pulling horizontal?

Thank you for the clarification. I struggle with determining the 66 vs 67 Coronets and Chargers.

'67 Chargers are easy. Externally, they have fender mounted turn signals. Internally, they have short consoles, unless there is a buddy seat, then obviously no console. No '66s had buddy seats. '67s also had emblems in the seat back vinyl, like Plymouths. A few '67s even had front seat head rests.

'67 Chargers are easy. Externally, they have fender mounted turn signals. Internally, they have short consoles, unless there is a buddy seat, then obviously no console. No '66s had buddy seats. '67s also had emblems in the seat back vinyl, like Plymouths. A few '67s even had front seat head rests.

Thank you for the information  :cheers:

Saw this the other day when I was at my daughters house
1961 Plymouth Fury
Only reason I know what it was is my parents had a white one when they got married

The red car must move as the grass was not very tall under it
The side windows do not fit very well so I think it would get wet inside over time

Guy also had a VW bug in the driveway up on blocks

Going to blame my daughter again for these pictures as we were out at the vet for her dog

Thought it was kind of a neat used car toy lot so went back around to have a look
Looked in the first two cars in the first picture and they were both 4 speeds
Then the owner came out
Guess they are just his toys and the only ones for sale were the two old black Fords in the last picture on the front row

Then he smiled and said they would be turning white soon
I asked was he going to paint them ?

Nope they are going to get covered in snow so it sounded like they just sit outside all the time

The Coronet has been in this same spot for at least the last 20 years, uncovered, half-covered, and fully tarped. Looks like it's parked in a location where it's wet most times of the year.

I talked to the owner about 10 years ago he's "going to restore it some day". Car is 318 auto, orange color (might be red).

Hi Chris,                 29 January 2023

As soon as we saw the photo we knew it was a Valiant but not the year. It reminded me of a Valiant that came into our gas station around 1973. The owner wanted his brakes adjusted. Put it up on the rack, adjusted them. Put it down checked the brakes, the pedal went to the floor. Back up with the owner in it, had him pump the brakes. The drums were so thin that when the brakes were applied the drums visibly expanded.

This was in Cuyahoga Falls Ohio, a burb of Akron, an area of the country with the worst weather in the US. Average annual sunshine of sixty-seven days. So much salt is dumped on the roads that back in those days some cars rusted out in one year. Three years was about the best one could expect if the car was a daily driver. Don't go there looking for a nice old Mopar. We had ours there but they never came out until late spring early summer.

In 1979 we got out of there; haven't been back since 2010.

Thanks for the pics.

Best Always

Plus I live in Redding and have family in the east bay and north bay

And my Fiancé and I enjoy doing road trips.

I tend to be out and about a lot and always have my eye out for old Mopars.  :coolgleamA:

Hi Chris,            14 April 2023

Seems you pass through many interesting, small, out of the way towns. From late 68 to late 69 I had a fairly large territory that I covered by company car. Had a large chunk of the north east. The small towns were the most interesting. I was always in a hurry to get to the next client I hardly had time to look in the rearview mirror.

Enjoy your travels as long as possible; you are lucky.

Agreed that the small towns are interesting. My territories (for Caltrans) are northern and northeastern California, so I feel very lucky to be able to be out and about for work.

Dulcich is Freiburger's sidekick on Roadkill. I think his farm is near Bakersfield.

Here's one of many examples.

Hi Chris,          17 July 2023

You sure visit lots of interesting places and find lots of neat Mopar's. I envy your travels and photography.

Back in late 68 early 69 I traveled the Northeast a fair amount, mostly on the Interstates and Turnpikes. I was in too much of a hurry to look around. It was a job, did see some interesting things but nothing like what you have posted. Thanks for all your efforts; you do brighten this site.

It is interesting for sure. I try to take miscellaneous streets, when I can, to see new places. I even find interesting non-Mopar related stuff!

Chris, you sure seem to stumble across some cool cars and trucks....as if the owner of this site is paying you to do it!
Redding.....I liked that town. A buddy of mine lived there form 2005-2010. He didn't like that it was colder in the winter and hotter in the summer than Sacramento. I like the trees and rural atmosphere there.
Thanks again for all the pictures.

You're welcome. I'm happy to share the pictures. I find myself taking many routes/roads I've never been on before to see if there's any Mopars to be seen.

Redding is nice, Been here for 18 years. Seems to be getting more crowded post-covid, but there's still lots of open territory to get away from everyone. Summers are definitely HOT!

Mid-80's Dodge Diplomat. Dorris, CA. 3-13-24

Might be an ex-police car, as the totaled new "Charger" in the foreground was law enforcement.

Hi Chris,            24 March 2024

This is my first post in quite awhile. Do come by to look at new posts and saw the restaurant and gun store. Would like to visit both if ever out that away.

Wonder how the food is? Learned long ago to only eat at restaurants that have lots of cars in their parking lot.
 
Thanks for the photos.

Best Always
Chris for the 426 Hemi Chicks
