I drove by this one today on Prescott, Wisconsin..  :yesnod:

There are 3 Chargers I see around here on the road my '68, a triple green '69 383 A/C that belongs to my former 8th grade teacher who bought it new, and a burgandy '69 with a white vinyl top that I've seen once or twice. There is a guy that lives close by that has a warehouse full of MoPars but he never drives them. What a waste  :icon_smile_sad:

are you from Delta County, Michigan??

ive seen a '68 that looks like yours
my 8th grade teacher had a green charger he bought new (idk if he has it still)
and the guy next to my uncle has a whole shed full of old cars (he wont let me in idk if mopars or not)

Somebody spotted me in my car once.  They mentioned it in this thread.  No camera on hand though...

Walking my dog tonight and went past a house I've gone buy at least 100 times before, this time one of the garages was up. I saw the side of the car and knew it was a Charger. I saw a guy outside, said it was his friends house and 69 Charger.

So, there is a Charger a block away and I never knew about?  :shruggy:

Funny how often that happens. There is a nice black with white stripe 69 R/T 4spd car that lives here in the valley. No one knows who it is or where it lives, but you'll see it driving around during the summer. Also a blue 70. I know where it parks sometimes. I will try to get pics sometime.

Dude, I saw the blue 68 Charger my wife saw in December!  It's on the bottom of page 20 on this thread.  It was driving the opposite way from me in town today, nice looking car!   :2thumbs:

That's 2 68 Chargers in the "Wild" in 2 days for me!  That's amazing!!!   :2thumbs:

Man, I must live in the wrong place. I live in Dallas which is a huge city with lots of pretty large suburbs. I drive around a lot for work and family and I have only seen one Charger in the last 25 or so years. I hardly ever see any old Mopars period. Saw a 72 Satellite the other day, but that's it. Why is that? The one Charger I saw was a 69 that was horribly modified and had a terrible paint job.  :eek2:

Here's one for you guys. It's a XP 383 car. Not sure if the 383 is still there or if it was replaced with something else. It has a Pistol Grip 4 speed. Last registered January 2009. The guy used to drive it daily but gas costs were killing him. So he now drives the creamy yellow car shown in the first picture.

Wow some great pics, keep them coming. I saw a purple AAR Cuda on the highway the other day. It was the middle of the week and the guy was probably in his early 60's, I wish I had my camera with me.

How about a removed from the wild?  I seen this R/T on a regular basis since about 1994 til maybe a month ago it finally disappeared.  Too bad it sat without the window all this time. Unfortunately it was in way worse shape than it looks in the picture. When the owner showed it to me back in 94 the rear frame was already rusted away.

From what you're saying it's probably still there just rusted to the ground.  Nice picture, what a shame. :'(
This car was sold many years ago to somebody in Wisconsin. I now am retired and living in Florida.

Spotted a red 72 Rallye yesterday when I was taking my daughter to her dance class.  The owner had added a black 1970 style bumblebee stripe on the back and hopefully I'll see it around again and I can get some pics.

I'll be back in the U.S. in a few weeks, so at least one '71 Charger will be a common sight in central and western Maryland for a while.

Around So Cal people drive their old cars. I'm on the road all the time so I see them.

I've seen the brown Charger in Santa Barbera about 3 times. I've been going up there twice a month for 3 years on business. Saw it a month ago parked on the street in front of a business. The black 69 I saw a few years ago. It's tough to whip out your camera in traffic. And I don't alway carry it.
