What I did tonight in pics.

[BrianShaughnessy]

Not many pics but whatever...  went down to the Highland cruise...  it started sprinkling so most 75% of the cars ran off.   I figured I might as well stay and see what happens rather than just drive 25 miles home in the rain.


Pic 1... me.
pic 2... An SRT-4 I see around with a lambo door kit
pic 3... Mod top 69 barracuda.  You may have seen it hanging at E-town by the survivors.
pic 4....Rick Ehrenberg from Mopar Action and mod top Dave talking numbers.    I got some new door handles from Rick at his cost

What's a little rain.    Looks like fun. 

[Old Moparz]

Hey Brian,

I would have been there, but I was at a puppet show & family picnic event. One of those "No avoiding at any cost" kind of deals   

You're doing the Lambo door thing to the Charger, right?

[Charger_Fan]

A 4-door Neon with Lambo doors?!?

Do you stuff anything in your hoodscoop when you drive in the rain? Just wondering.


Thanks for sharing the pics.

[BrianShaughnessy]

Bob,
      Yeah,  it was OK.   No... I'm not doing lambo doors...   That's too complicated and I kinda like the way my doors open and close nicely the way they are.   
      I was trying to explain to Rick that you got your repro Cuda grill from that Premier place or whatever but I couldn't recall most of the details like usual. 


C_F:  I've only driven in the rain twice and I don't have anything as yet to stuff the hood with      

Thanks Plum

Man that must be a lot of work to change those doors over like that.

Rick talked to the guy... I guess it's a kit...  kinda neat but not my thing.    Other than that it's just the usual intake mods and a carbon fiber hood. 

For a little while last year I thought I'd like to get something like that for a daily...  then I got my Cherokee and I'd rather do 4wd than fwd.   I had a few Daytona Shelby Z's and no matter what way you slice it,  fwd isn't everything they say for going in the snow and stuff.

Ok don't ask me HOW they did it but there was a newer style convertible mustang 2000 or something with lambo doors on it! Looked kinda neat but doesn't beat American Muscle!

[BigBlockSam]

i like your charger

[clausoe]

Nice pics, what's with the top on the barracuda? Is that supposed to be like that?

[CFMopar]

That tie dye shirt has to go 

[Silver R/T]

you can put those lambo kits on any car, doent amaze me, it actually made neon look uglier. Never been fan of neons

That's your basic 20K mile "mod top"  Barracuda survivor (*) .    Dave was showing Rick a Galen report that showed the breakdowns of mod tops and stuff but I get bored with that #'s crap.    The interior fabric on the seats matches the top also... it's a funky kinda car from a funky time.

And just to fight the powah...  I put on my new door handles this afternoon and used the new chrome pushbuttons instead of swapping over the old black buttons like it should have

(*)  <----- How appropriate. That looks like an a-hole.

Thanks for sharing. Your car looks just a beautiful as ever!
Didn't you get caught in the rain on your way home from the Lebanon Valley show last year?

Thanks Jen and yes... it got drenched.        It ended just as I got home.    I shoulda just stayed there for an hour or so extra and ate another cheeseburger or something.

[dart3404]

My grandmother told me she used to have a dress that had a patern the exact same as that cuda's top!

I want to do a drag car like that,I'll call it "mod machine"

[Drache]

I think everyone agrees though that the Charger is the best looking machine there!

[MoparYoungGun]

You have a wonderful looking Charger Brian !
