                                 NOT ONE! NOT TWO! BUT THREE OE DAYTONAS AT THE SAME SHOW!
Linda and I got back late last night from our quick Mopar Nationals adventure! We walked the swamp meet Friday early. Then had lunch and made our way to the OE judging tent! The three Daytonas that were supposed to be there were there! John Antonellis Daytona was the first Daytona to be judged early Thursday. My first picture is of John standing by his yellow Daytona. Next up on Thursday was Tony D'Agastinos white Daytona. My second picture shows Tony's Daytona. When we arrived Friday afternoon Gene Lewis was just driving his Daytona up on the ramp for judging! Yes! They brought the lift back! The last two pictures are of Genes Daytona up on the lift getting ready for the judging! I got to talk with John and Tony but left Gene alone as it was crunch time and there were enough distractions already! There were so many people around this display of rare Mopar engineering that it was difficult to take pictures! ENJOY!

It will be a LONG time until we see three high caliber Daytonas like this under the tent at the same time.    Very exciting.

kudos, to all three owners. it's great to see all of your efforts rewarded.

if ever there was a reason for a new thread with tons and tons of photos, these crown jewels (along with the borzych's gem) would be it.

Your typo "swamp meet" was pretty accurate!  We spent the day sidestepping mudpuddles and standing water!  I saw the cars under the tent on Saturday, looking good.

Maybe it is my eyes or the distance of the photo but the window stickers look to be different sizes.  Maybe it is just me. :shruggy:
