Hey TROY-here's a nice '69 HEMI Charger

[PocketThunder]

I'm sorry....I can see why it's one of 4 in that color...Fugly. I hate yellow on B bodys....Nice quality reso but the color sucks IMHO.

I second that - what kind of person would go into the dealership in '69 and buy a pale yellow HEMI car?!?!?

BZ

I would.  I love this color!

Somewhere I've posted pictures of a local car that I call the "Grandma Car". It's yellow with a white top, white interior, and stripe delete. Real cool huh. When you get closer you figure out it's a Hemi 4-speed...

Troy

This one?  Have you ever talked to him?  I've seen the car around, but never talked to the owner....I'd be curious to know the story.

Yep, that's it. His name is Hoppy (odd considering the license plate huh?). His wife has a RR convertible that they've been driving a lot more often. He says the drone from the Hemi steep rear end gears is a killer on trips farther than about 20 miles. He's a nice guy and restored it himself I believe. He lives on our side of town and he's a member of the Tri State Mopar club. That picture was taken at the Tri State Dragway (a couple of miles from my house) during a Chrysler Classic event.

I've seen the car several times around and I knew it was original but I never got the chance to speak with the owner.  I think the last time I saw it was several years ago in Columbus at the May Chrysler Classic event.  I grabbed the pic from the Tri State Mopar club's website because I was fairly certain that was the same car....can't imagine seein' another Hemi 4spd in THAT color combo.   Definitely a sleeper.
