Gary Dourdan's 1968 Charger on TMZ

[Sinister68]

Anyone else see TMZ's story on Dourdan speeding off after parking in a no-parking zone?  Nice looking 68 at any rate.

They showed more video of the Charger on TMZ TV.

[bull]

It sounds good too. I didn't recognize him from CSI with the hat and beard, I had to look up the name to see who he was.

[histoy]

It looked like the dude has a drinking problem, and is willing to take chances with both his '68 & his motorcycle.

Last night I caught this show called TMZ and they were showing that black guy from CSI on Sunset Blvd in Hollywood with his dark green 68 Charger.
The cops caught him making an illegal u-turn and flooring it. They also showed him obviously hammered, parked in a handicap spot and then jumping in and driving off.

Well, I don't know the show or the guy, but if the car and the guy were different colors, that could have been me on Sunset Blvd. 39 years ago. Bob

there's another thread on this on Gen Disc. btw..

other than checking out the charger i don't give a crap about hollywood stars and their personal lives,..

...other then Scarlett of course...

Terrorizing? Top speed? This is just looking for sensation when there really isn't anything happening...

Hahah...what a moron. You can't even really speed on Sunset Blvd...either traffic is horrible, or there is always a cop right behind you.

[Mean 318]

Big deal, he made a U turn.... I didnt see smoke or him blow through a red light. How is this news? sweet car!

No not that! Just how their site made a big deal out of it! lol, I think it is sweet to see/hear the 68!  I am glad you posted it! misunderstanding! I am bashing the stupid reporter!

[TUFCAT]

He's a tool.

[RD]

i think its cool.... he wasnt acting like a complete idiot, had control of the car, didnt do a stupid style spinning tire U-turn...I have done far worse.

[Sinister68]

Looks like they changed the video on that link.  Here's a newer link.

Here's a link to him making an illegal u-turn.  Interesting...That Charger's headlight wiring has been changed to keep the front park/turn lights on with the headlights. 

[TUFCAT]

That second link was great   also, ...he was well into third gear before the cops decided to turn around.   

[ChargerSG]

I like Csi and now i will like even more

[Dave22443]

Love the guys taste in cars 

Wish I could figure out how to wire my lights to stay on like that. 

[440AirForce]

I saw the ride on La Cienega last Sat night. I wouldn't be driving my Charger around town with Linsey Lohan on the loose!

[Brock Samson]

those shows are just adverts for the hollywood P.R. clients...

[Rolling_Thunder]

I have seen that car around...     Sunset Blvd infact...    It does sound pretty nice...     and Ponch is correct...   no real way to speed on Sunset...    unless you get out in thw twisties...   not a place for a 68 charger....     I have taken the Superbird out there though...     Scary....       That is one car that does not like to turn   

[terrible one]

Sick Charger.

[68charger383]

Hey Thunder,

Thanks in advance.

[suntech]

Me too please

[dkn1997]

I agree, I now like CSI a little better than before.  sweet sound.

[Dave22443]

PM Sent!   

[Brock Samson]

See?.. '69s are better!   

[Rolling_Thunder]

Its easy guys - on your "body wiring" for your front light harness, you have a 6 pin connector numbered termincal 1-6...    terminal #2 has a black and yellow wire coming out of it. Simply link this wire to the dark green wire in terminal #5. Terminal #5 supplies constant power to your side markers. The black and yellow wire only carries power when your headlight switch is set to "running lights". Make sure to swap the wires on the HEADLIGHT side of the harness (The wires that connect to the headlights, not the bulkhead)




Simply crimp a new connector on both wires and slide them into the #5 terminal. on a 1969 I believe There is no wire in terminal #5 presently, however if there is a dark green wire coming from the bulkhead to the 6 pin connector, you only need to swap the wire from terminal #2 to Terminal #5.

[TUFCAT]

Wow, That's SLICK  ....very well done diagram - -  THANKS!!!! 

[Rolling_Thunder]

No problem guys -
