looks like one to me as well.  not to mention there is a post on the general discussion about this pic as well as another that is supposed to have a possibility of a Charger in it as well!

Looks like a 'Cuda to me, with a newer Bronco sitting behind it. :'(
I guess this is one way to see what folks have stashed in their garages. :icon_smile_big:


I hope we don't have any members from that town.

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

not thinkin it's real...take note of the man's reflection in the windshield....
Daddy ran whiskey in a big black dodge
bought it at an auction at the masons lodge,
Johnson County Sherriff painted on the side,
just shot a coat of primer then he looked inside,
well him and my uncle tore that engine down,
I still remember that rumblin' sound.....

I like this shot...the roof & most of the store is all gone, but here there's paint cans still sitting organised on the shelves, same with other stuff on the back wall.

Our railroad special agent was in Greensburg today when the Prez showed up. He had lots of pictures to show us. Theres a 68-69 Camaro in one of his photos that looks like its ok and in the middle of a pile of 5 houses. The John Deere dealership took a bad hit and combines and tractors are all over the place. Big tractor tires up in tree's and stuff. Plenty of machine guns and blackhawk choppers around today providing security for the prez.

What?  318 cars aren't decent Mopars?  Oh, I forget.  If it doesn't say R/T or have a big block it isn't worth looking at or having.

That looks like a huge old school Gameboy..
Earth. Even the word sounded strange to me now... unfamiliar. How long had I been gone? How long had I been back? Did it matter? I tried to find the rhythm of the world where I used to live. I followed the current. I was silent, attentive, I made a conscious effort to smile, nod, stand, and perform the millions of gestures that constitute life on earth. I studied these gestures until they became reflexes again. But I was haunted by the idea that I remembered her wrong -Solaris

The Cuda was Sublime and had 440 callouts on the quarters.

On the southwest side of town there was a red 73ish Chrager, black hood and side stripes with some bad front end damage and pass quarter damage. the garage it was in was gone.

These were the only Mopars I saw, alot of GM stuff and a nice mid 60's Mustang with front end and roof damage.
