Fall Fling 2007

[68charger383]

Nice day in Van Nuys for the fall fling. Jeno Leno appeared in a car powered by a Patton tank motor. I'll try and figure somewhere to post the video, maybe Utube. There were at least 300 cars today. A lot of e bodies, especially, 71 cudas. I took pics of the Chargers...plenty of other great cars as well. I spent most of the day looking for parts and buying from the parts guys...prices weren't any better then e-bay, but saved on the shipping.

Well, I met Rick from Layson's at his tent and spoke with Rolling Thunder, but didn't know it was him....By the way R.T. I was the chick with the blonde hair and the baby in the stroller (and I had the DC.com sign on the stroller) who said you had a great table for your food....it was on the wing!  And I sat around talking with you and that young kids who kept asking the ?? about your interior and such...LOL.  I ws actually asked if I ws your wife by someone...LOL  If I had know that it was you I would have opened my big mouth and said something!  Dumb blonde!

[Silver R/T]

nice looking Chargers as always

[68charger383]

A few more pics

Australian Charger motor and interior (have to love the right side drive on the car)

Thought this one was funny in the parking lot...67 chevelle with detail pros on the rear window and 1/2 the paint on the car looked like it was rubbed out down to the primer.

I was on the lookout for you guys, but didn't spot you anywhere.


Anyway..here's a link to a pic thread by one of my LX buddies who was there:

I saw you walkin around - was with a customer at the time and just didnt have a chance to get your attention - you were wearing your "Iceman" shirt weren't you ?    I was chilling in front of that Tor-Red bird...     back row on the far north side

Thanks for posting all the 3rd gen pic's.

yeah, that was me. I didn't see you though. I was kinda preoccupied trying to find a buddy I was supposed to meet up with.

Sorry to bring up old threads but I realized I met the owners of these chargers, thought it was pretty cool:


This guy was with his family at the Oldies and Goldie's show at Saugus Speedway last year-ish??


The orange: talked to the owner at the last spring fling (The guy that helped the owner of green also helped on this one). The green: I'm pretty sure it was the one at Bobs Big Boy in Burbank a couple months ago but I think the wheels were different?? The orange was built to be really quiet I remember that...

Anyway, its cool to see them on here, all three are outstanding in person. 

*In case they see this, I was the 17-18 year old kid with a 68 project that probably asked a ton of questions.

  Spring/Fall Flings totally rule. Van Nuys is only 2 1/2 hrs. away for me. Back in the old days (before cops attended) there was a cool burn out show.

Very cool pics of some nice cars. Thanks for sharing. That blonde is smokin' hot
