'1968' ~ 'The Way Mopar Should Have Been'

the only reason they built a "high performance " anything was to sell more " regular" cars to the general public??? BUT,,, they hit a big one with the 69 383 runner, wasn't production that year 85,000 of those?????
also, if direct connection "add on parts" were available, maybe they figured the gearhead tyoes would do their own mods!????
lets remember, the musclecar craze only lasted a few years back then, and t he insurance co and govt stepped in and killed it off! then the hippy movement made fast cars " not nice", then the oil embargo comes in!???
