I was there last summer and that place is amazing!   It's a car guys dream.

Vainglory, Esq.

There's a Minnesota Cars and Coffee every first Saturday! :o http://www.mncandc.com/

I wish I had known this.  PocketThunder, you want to do this in September/October?  I watched the videos and didn't see a single damn Charger!  Let's change that.  I've got a wedding on, I think, September 4th, but I'll double check.

Vainglory, Esq.

Pretty cool place to hang if you got the extra change  :yesnod:

October 1, i'm already there.  I'll see how many Charger guys in the area i can get to go.   :2thumbs:

Very cool concept, It's too bad California is The ECO-NAZI state "that would be cool to have here", except they would make you jump thru hoops & barrels just to have it be considered, I could only imagine the Environmental Impact studies they would make you do here, it would probably be in the $100's of thousands now to have a live in condo/garage complex....  I like the idea...

I was there.  I got there a little late, so I was stuck between an AMC Hornet and a Neon.  :rotz:  Bet that guy in the Neon had some feelings of inadequacy because the car on the other side of him was a Hemi too.  Ha.

Vainglory, Esq.

Also, there were a couple of cars for sale if anyone's interested including the very-rare vinyl-top '67:


Vainglory, Esq.

It was $11,500 asking.  I have contact info if anyone needs it.


BigBlockSam

that is so cool . i'd luv to live there all year long

Vainglory, Esq.

Sorry, that was a typo - it's actually $17,500.  My bad.

Vainglory, Esq.

Thought this one was cool.  It'd be cooler if my headlight doors worked, but whatevs.

Vainglory, Esq.

A nice '72 Rallye for you 3rd gen guys.

Vainglory, Esq.

A nice '68 with a friendly owner.  Older restoration, but very well done.

Vainglory, Esq.

This A12 Road Runner is also for sale; $60,000.  It's got some problems, and I have a bunch of other pictures and contact info if anyone wants.

Vainglory, Esq.

Have way more pics if anyone's interested, but I don't really have a good, quick system for resizing them all, so it takes time.

Budnicks

Very Cool Photo's there, I love the 69-1/2 A-12 Platinum Grey colored Roadrunner & the Red 68 & 70 Chargers...

Nice Sox and Martin Plymouth that sounded pretty healthy too.

Vainglory, Esq.

Vipers don't usually get me that excited, but this one was very nice.

Vainglory, Esq.

This was the most, ahem, interesting interior I think I've ever seen.  Not sure if it was ordered by a blind man, but I have to say, I actually kind of like it...

Vainglory, Esq.

Another very nice vert.  I find it quite ironic how many convertible Mopars there are here in Minnesota.  I didn't see nearly so many when I was trolling shows in California in my younger days. 

Vainglory, Esq.

This was a very nice Hemi GTX.  Had a license plate that I appreciate as well: "KNGKONG"

Vainglory, Esq.

Yep, another vert.  They're everywhere.

Vainglory, Esq.

An original, unrestored survivor.  Looked great for its age, too.

Vainglory, Esq.

"Deluxe" Viper hood prop.  Gave me a chuckle.

Vainglory, Esq.

What's that you say?  You want to see more convertibles?

Vainglory, Esq.

No more convertibles.  Okay, one more convertible.

Vainglory, Esq.

Real V-code 'Cuda.

Vainglory, Esq.

In contention for the best man cave out there.  Way in the back, that's a real hemi Challenger.  Oh, and the Coronet ...a convertible. :P

Vainglory, Esq.

And I'll close it out with another one of mine, because I'm that guy.

I wonder which would be faster?  A stock hemi Charger or a Neon SRT4?

I'll look it up...

The 1970 Dodge Charger R/T Hemi  http://musclecars.howstuffworks.com/classic-muscle-cars/1970-dodge-charger-r-t-hemi.htm
Specifications
Wheelbase, inches: 117.0
Weight, lbs: 3,800
Number built: 112
Base price: $4,360

Standard Engine
Type: ohv V-8
Displacement, cid: 426
Fuel system: 2 x 4bbl.
Compression ratio: 10.25:1
Horsepower @ rpm: 425 @ 5000
Torque @ rpm: 490 @ 4000

Representative Performance
0-60 mph, sec: 5.5
1/4 mile, sec. @ mph: 13.9 @ 105

Per car and Driver  http://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/car/02q4/dodge_neon_srt-4-road_test


One look reveals the probable character of the beast, so let's just cut right to the quick. The Neon SRT-4 rips to 60 mph in 5.6 seconds, to 100 in 13.8, covers a quarter-mile in 14.2 seconds at 102 mph, and keeps on huffin' all the way to 153 mph.

Clearly, this is no ordinary Neon. An ordinary Neon — even a mildly breathed-on Neon, such as the R/T version we tested in November 2001 — hits 60 two seconds later (7.6), 100 mph nearly 10 seconds later (23.2), and the quarter-mile in 16.1 at 87. That particular Neon topped out at 125 mph.


Wow...so a 13.9 vs. a 14.2...maybe that Neon would have kicked your butt LOL.  Certainly would have come down to the drive at 0.3 tenths different.  Of course...yours might be modified...but so might his!

It's. A. Neon.

Your argument is invalid.
