Mopars at All American Show in Sydney, Australia

[71 Bee Man]

G'day guys,

here's some pics of an All American show I went to in the Bee yesterday in sunny Sydney. The show was at a shopping centre in Castle Hill, a suburb of Sydney. They got between 350 - 400 cars of all makes, and I took some snaps of the Mopars in attendance. Not too many, but that's the way it is down here - any Chargers, Challengers, Cudas etc have all been imported - never sold here.

Incidentally, the Bee go 2nd Place in the Hardtop category. I'll post a few now and some more when I get the chance to edit them. It was 41 degrees centigrade, which is apparently almost 106 degrees F for you guys.

Yeah, it seems the first thing 2nd Gen guys do is whack white stripes on the rear - which is fine, I love the look. Not sure if they're all meant to have them, but down here I don't think authenticity is as big as it is in the States.

Here's a few more.

RD Yes that white stripe is the factory colour on the 70 its my car and its in the registry. I have thought the same thing as the original sales literature dosnt show white stripe for hemi orange paint,It is a yo9 export car that was ordered from Australia back in the day i thought maybe it was ordered in white and it would take too long to get hold of the purchaser to change the colour so they just made it in white I wonder how many other chargers have the same colour combo.Ev2 black roof white stripe.
The car didnt come with the hood black out thats an add on.
Peter thats a good photo you did a great job i am yet to get a few pics of my car.
Thanks

G'day Steve,

I've also got a really good side on shot of your car - looks great. How bloody hot was it yesterday ?
Would you believe I was simply walking past the presentation area to go home when they called out my car for the hardtop trophy......I had to laugh. I didn't even know my wife had entered me for judging.
