Mopar Madness car ****

[Longgone]

This weekend (June 12-14) is the Mopar Madness show at Va. Motorsports Park. I went yesterday and took the Dart. She polished up nice and brought home a first in her class of 67-69 Dodge A bodies. I met a lot of new people and turned them on to the site. I thought I`d share with you all some of the great cars in attendance. The show is still on today, so check it out if you get the chance.

The down side to these car shows is the cars always have their hoods up and there`s usually nobody around to put it down for photos. Anyway enjoy, there should be something for everybody. The last photo here is a friend of mine that runs a 92 Daytona with a 340, capable of 7 second passes.

And the beat goes on....... the 69 Roadrunner at the end here was damn near perfect, one of the most extraordinary restorations I`ve ever seen of an A-12 car! Oh, and it had silver interior too.

Train kept a rollin'..... I started this one with a couple of my Dart, unfortunately they`re not real good because I was all caught up in getting photos of all the other cars there.

The green Valiant was owned by a fellow named Kevin, it was his mom`s car and he`s carried on the Mopar tradition instead of opting for a newer car. I acted as ambassador for FABO and hopefully we`ll see more of him here. He`s looking for parts. Aren`t we all?

I have seen these guys at Memphis Motor sports drag strip before, I think they have a 68 Barracuda too.

I`m sorry I missed you, I was flying solo too, passenger on a drunk. Lol! It was hotter than he77 but isn`t that Va. in the summer? Again, sorry I missed you ,I hope to see you at another event soon.

Thanks guys, I appreciate it. Enjoy the show pics!

Thanks, yeah you`ve got to commit, Va. Motorsports Park is about 100 miles from me and my girlfriend kept saying "take the Corolla, it gets awesome mileage and you`d be more comfortable", (A/C and all, lol) but I drove the Dart and although 100 miles of road grime was on her she still brought home the bacon. Even if you don`t take a car to show you can always attend as it supports the hobby.

Yeah they get around, it was also Ed Millers 70th birthday and a couple got hitched at the track at noon then drag raced afterwards. True love. :love7: LOL!

Nice pics !

Thanks Adam, you`ve got to get yours completed so you can show that beauty!

Thanks for the pics Longgone & congrats on your trophy. Could'nt make it this year but your pictures made me feel like I was at the show. I have seen your Dart in person once & it is sweet. Looks like it was an awesome event & would like to give kudos to my local club( Tidewater Mopar) for making it happen.

Thanks Oldschool. Yeah I didn`t show the car with the bias-ply redline tires because- who wants to drive 200 miles on those things? I don`t know how we used to do it, the tires follow the road and it`s a fight to keep it straight sometimes. There`s probably folks (back in the day) that got drunk driving tickets and never smelled a drink. Lol! It was a great time and TMC put on a good show. I need to join up. :-D

Those little Daytona's can scat theres one that races here and his engine is huge, can't remember the specifics right now. I like those little rampages too, wish i had one! Congrats on the first place trophy thats awesome!!
