Chargers at Spring Fling 2009

[CaptMarvel]

I did my part, bought two new AMD front fenders for the 68'. Saved shipping from Alabama and even got a buy two discount...really nice folks at AMD, and loved those southern accents!

Here's a link to TONS of Spring Fling pictures.  Sorry for posting so late.

There are different cars that show up on Saturday vs. Sunday. There are at least 100 cars on Sunday that weren't there on Saturday. For instance there were at least 10 AMX's on Sunday, but one poster said he only saw one on Sat. The higher end cars tend to show up Sunday for judging. But everyone is welcome booth days. We don't charge any more for judging and it's only $30 for both or either day.

13 million people live less that two hours away. So many bring one car on Saturday and there other car on the Sunday. Also people shop for parts on Saturday, then bring there car on Sunday. And then others, sell parts on Saturday and show their car on Sunday. So even if you went one day you might want to check out the pictures to see what you missed the other day. Sooooo.... there are things you just miss seeing or spending enough time seeing that you can check out in the pictures.

BTW, did anyone come to the Saturday night Cruise In at California Car Cover. Over 200 cars? They gave away FREE FOOD for EVERYONE. Even passengers in the cars and I'm pretty sure every spectator. They ran out of burgers at 400, but still had hot dogs.

The brown 70 Hemi Charger AND the blue 70 six pack Charger DROVE down from Washington!! Also a 64 Dodge conv, a 440-6 Superbird and a 50's custom Dodge truck came from Washington and B.C. (Gary Keays) Check out the video!  

BTW that 71 Petty Charger that is In-Progress without the motor is a REAL Richard Petty Hemi NASCAR Charger. It was also Buddy Bakers #11 Charger in 1971. http://www.mopardealer.com/petty3.htm

Spring Fling Saturday Night Cruise In hosted by California Car Cover -pictures

The owner Jim DeFrank, owns a 63 Belvedere I believe and of course owns the famous Jim De Frank Super Stock Hemi Barracuda currently compained in NHRA. Jim is a true Mopar guy and when he built that S/S Barracuda he towed it to Spring Fling and sold the part he wasn't using right off of it.

Do you know or heard of Peter Jenslund. He doesn't body work out here in Canoga Park/Chatsworth?? I think he does a little trading with the Swedish Mopar guys.

There were lot and lot of swap meet vendor. We had 275 this year compared to 250 last year. Seemed like a lot of Dana rear ends and 4spd for sale. More than I can remember is the last 6 years.
