 Mine was never in print, just in a TV commerical ;D

Have a copy of it but to dam dumb about the Keyboard Thingie to post it. Gateway Drag Strip home of Monster Mopar Weekend used it her in there summer TV ad campaign. Here is the funny part. When they called me, I had just pulled the 42sick that weekend and there was no engine in the 69 Charger Rusted / Trash. ;D Had to back the front hemi bars 15 turns and throw in a 100 pound 10 HP Aic Compressor to get it to sit level.

Next, I am not a Dukes Fan, but that is why the wanted my Charger ;D Lin called me at work and asked "do you have a General Lee"? Told her "No I have a General Grant". Boy she was confused of a few seconds while I explaied I have a 69 Charger Rusted / Trash with a black top painted Viper Red. Well they took her, stuck a 01 one on the door and she was on TV! Got a baseball cap out of it and a flat bed ride home.

Anyone here want to post the TV commerical, kind of cool. Was on the screen for a bout 20 seconds. And a Dasy Duke look a like was rubbing her. My favior part :angel: :devil:

Mine was, but it wasn't as glamorous as Chris's car & that story. Mine has been off the road for so long I'll be getting pollution credits.   :eyes:

My "Mistress" was in a commercial advertising for the first ever "Dukes Day Fest" in Little Rock, Arkansas, two years ago.  The gentleman who was heading up the festival, digitally enhanced an 01 on my door for the commercial.  It was really neat!

Lgcuda and I were at a car show in StCharles MO. about 10 years ago and a shoot from there was in a local monthly auto publication.  well they took pictures of all the cars.  I had the 70 Challenger vert with the top down.  The photographer ask if he can get these show girls in skimpy bikinis around my car.  Well, much to my wifes displeasure I said yes! They published pictures of both my Challenger and lgcuda's 73 Cuda.  I still have the mag, and occassionaly here from my wife how she gets yelled at for leaning on my cars but some stranger in a bikini can flop her greasy butt were ever she pleases with my permission :yesnod:

This pic was in the 2005 edition of Englishtown, NJ's Raceway Park news for the Mopar Atlantic Nationals.

The pic was taken at the 2004 show.   I didnt even see it.   Burnt70 pointed it out to me....

Mine made it into the PENTASTARS section of Mopar Muscle twice!  I sent in a picture and some dialog last year.  I think it was in the December or January issue.  Then surprisingly it showed up again in June or thereabouts with the same picture but a different header and story.  I think they screwed up.   Bob

Mine was in a movie, supposedly. It was originally called "Bloodhead", then the name was changed to "Creature From the Sunny Side Up Trailer Park." Don't know what happened to it, but it was made by Francis Ford Coppola's son and had Linda Carter from "Wonder Woman"in it.

"the most beautiful car ever made"   WOW :o  i'd have to agree with you on that one.....

Mine was featured in the Saturday Frederick News-Post Automotive section a few weeks ago I'm told. I've been out of the country since August and haven't seen it for myself. I'm looking forward to getting back in October and finally seeing it.
