This Charger looks like a twin to the one the member here bought from Palm Springs? and brought back to Minneapolis.

Jay Leno showed up real late. My pictures say 3:35pm. He's done that a couple times at Fall Fling. Once with the turbine motorcycle and once with the McLaren F1. Hey, he's a busy guy. I'm surprised he's able to show up nearly every show.

This was for sale. Real real clean...

Hey thats me!  That does look like my Oak Hills, CA charger..    Except my car is special order omaha orange.  

[autoxcuda]

Dont see to many rust free (or close to it) complete Petty Blue 73 Charger 340 cars for sale...







Bet it could have been had for under $5K. Maybe even more off. Don't know if it sold.

Is that car EV2 ?? I think I've seen original orange 69's out here, but don't know if they were EV2 or Omaha orange.

Original owner 70 R/T. He also worked at the L.A. assembly plant from 66 until it closed in 71. He's got some stories. He worked in almost every department. He wished they made Chargers a the L.A. plant, he would have loaded it up He said that was common practice if someone else in the plant bought a car they were making. On top the big build sheet it would say "employee car". Final inspection would ignore the "added" touches.







The owner of Milodon is a Mopar guy. Here's the car he built for himself...

Parts, parts, anyone looking for parts??

Here's a 1st gen project for sale. And looks to be some really nice red guts out of another 1st gen







On the way to a Coronet R/T clone. Or was it a real one??

[autoxcuda]

#1 63 Max Wedge heads and intake... $850

#2 Hemi direct drive manual bellhousing...$100

#3 070 Hemi fan clutch and fan...$100

I dont know if its EV2 or R6 or R8..  

Here is a comparison from my thread on EV2.   http://www.dodgecharger.com/forum/index.php/topic,60095.msg674111.html#msg674111

So far Paul's is the only 99 99 Omaha Orange example I know of so far.....V2 Hemi Orange was a spring color for '69.

That car int he pic looks like more R4 Bright Red to me....

You're right. That R4 throws you for a loop.

I'd suspect if there were more they were more likely to be sold in California since they started that color/deal out here. I took that picture to show PocketThunder. But I should have got close and took a fender tag pic. I just get pulled off what I'm doing so much. Still took 300+ pics.

Doug with the 68 RR 383 4spd omaha orange bought his off the lot in Glendale. That's the one that's been in the magazines lately. He's from So Cal and has been to the show and cruise in around here. Another club member's brother bought a new omaha orange 68 340-S Barracuda. Sold it about 5-8 years ago.

Have you talked to Sean Machado about omaha orange 68-69 Chargers? He's on this board. Forgot his username. Him and his dad have been following this stuff since new around here and maybe have seen other ones. I wouldn't be surprise if they knew something about the one PocketThunder just bought. They live out that way.

68-70 Charger upper pads.... Lots of them.



Charger decklid, sure grips,



Charger interior

Nice selection....see any Big block A/C parts?  even though it might be a bit late now   Still looking for hoses for my R/T

Looking for  good original hoses? That wasn't on my radar at all. Not real common piece to sell as most would just have non original looking hoses made up. I wouldn't be surprised if there was some out there.

I usually try walk down each swap row and take a picture of each swap spot. Just couldn't get that to happen.

unless I misunderstood or misheard (I don't think I did though), the guy was asking $6500 for EVERYTHING (car included).

I think it did but it looked kinda rough. I didn't take a good look though...

Yeah his name was Paul, 6500 for car plus all the parts, and 500 for just the parts (all of them). Ive got his number somewhere. He said he lost his storage and was looking to move all his stuff that weekend. Got one of my ac vents from him. And the 66 did have the interior in it, really nice project.

This poor thing got totalled on the way home from the show by a drunk driver

I was hoping there wasn't a mopar involved. I saw the traffic jam and took the 5 back home instead. Sad to hear. Know if the driver/passengers made it out ok?


EDIT: scratch that post, just saw the other thread.

[Finn]

HAHA. I just now realized Im in that picture with the 66 charger. (black shirt and sunglasses)

Same guy that took that picture caught David Freiburger, editor of Hot Rod Magazine, buying a 1972 Satalite Station Wagon...

Where's Waldo?....
