From Sunday. Troy, I have more of your charger, pm me if you'd like. I compressed these files so I wouldn't chew up too much server space, the ones on my computer are high res so let me know.

Nice pics!  I was there Saturday and looked at a number of very nice cars.  Some great running MOPARS taking a run down the strip too!

[Sinister68]

Hey Troy, I never noticed that your rear marker bezels are painted body color instead of stripe color. First time I've seen that.

Also was the T5 car parked next to yours a 4 speed car?

thanks sinister68! my wife was NOT happy about me bringing that car without her there to "show it off" but she's 7 months along and couldn't travel. so i get to claim it for now. lol.. that was my blue 69 and turq 68 R/T next to the black one. man there were some nice cars there.. got to meet some cool people and talk to troy for once.. can never get enough of looking at "dana".. i didn't go today, we came on back.. expecially after we heard it was an "all makes and models day" ha we get enough of those around here..

Saw the "trio" on the trailer yesterday afternoon. Beautiful setup! Really nice set of 2nd gen Chargers you brought.Do you go to the Southland Dodge get-together in Houma?  It was last weekend this year as he moved the date to attend the event here in Houston.I haven't been in a couple of years but was glad to see the Teuton family here for the show! Personally know Jeff and his son Frank and they are fine people! They brought quite a setup to the show this year too with both of their '68 Hemi Barracuda Superstocks leading the pack.  The '69 1/2 440-6pack Coronet they have is stunning!

thanks for posting nice looking cars

[69charger2002]

i have never been to that show, and have never personally met any of the teuton's, at least that i remember.. i have heard nothing but good things about them, and 2 of my buddies have both had their 440's built by them.. thanks for the compliment by the way. the 68 is a "project" kinda.. but it hasn't been touched since about 1979.. so it's kind of cool to see how one looks after 10 years of use and one repaint..i've never even cleaned the interior in that one. still pretty sick lol... of course i changed the wheels but kept the original steelies.. did you have a car at the show?

Danny... The T5 is Jerry's.. He showed up with Jim.. I actually did something you did in the past for them, climb on Jim's trailer to help out with the vent window, this one on the rear...... So, the T5 was his Hemi / 727...  Also, even though the rear bezels weren't supposed to be painted, I prefer it that way... Looks better to me..  We talked about you a few times...

I made the trip up there too - lots of nice cars! Always a bonus to see wing cars and the two there (one daytona, one superbird) were excellent examples... lots of nice 'Cudas as well!

Wish I would have gotten there earlier to be able to meet some more people, but we work 'til noon on Sat mornings...  at any rate, I just hope I'll be able to make it next year (with the Charger in tow!)...

I took a few pics with my iPhone that I'll try to post tomorrow if they turn out ok...

That would be great... Thanks for the offer and the other pics here... I"ll post some of mine later on.. I'm pretty beat.........

Hope you had a great time...

Trav, it was nice meeting you over the weekend......  The trio was pretty cool and enjoyed the '68, '69 and '70 Chargers.. All three of the 2nd gen's........

The show was nice.. The weather finally agreed with us......

[charge69]

69charger2002: No, I did not have my car there. Maybe next year, but that might be a little quick as it will go on the rotisserie for the restoration at the beginning of the year. Mine is the one in my Avatar....'69 Hemi R/T NOM.  I was there with a friend who just got his '69 Roadrunner off the rotisserie and was hoping to race it but, electrical problems kept him from doing it. Also went to say hello to the Tuetons and see their cars on the track for the first time! Man, they know how to travel.......First Class , all the way!

Really liked all three of your Chargers and the '68 was in great shape for no work since 1979!  I think the Southland Dodge show is usually the 2nd weekend in Nov. , after the race season when all the cars are there and it is open to all that want to come! Frank said they had about 80 cars there this year and it was great! They always have a big Bar-B-Que and feed everyone there too.  The New Orleans MOPAR Club usually has a big showing there. You might consider going next year. No idea where you live in Louisiana but, Houma cannot be too far away!  You would have a nice time.

Troy, my wife and I looked for you a few times and never caught you at the tent or anywhere around when we came by! Your 500 was beautiful,as usual , and the club had a number of nice cars there! We enjoyed the show very much and hope it was a success.
