So I'm at a Dunkin Donuts and I see this 69 Dart in a space. I saw the car one other time.  This time as he was walking out with his coffee I jumped out of my truck and said , Hey can I take a picture of your beautiful Dart?  He walked over and we started talking.  Within seconds he's telling me he has over 70 Mopars.  What?  Yep 11, 67 chargers, a red apart 69 Hemi charger and on and on.  He hands me his card to his shop and says, yeah stop by and come see me and the cars.  :notworthy:

So at lunch time I swung by the shop and he had this stuff outside.  The guys in the shop said yes he has tons of other cars in storage.  He will talk your ears off about Mopars and you will be his new best friend.  I replied, that's great I'm looking for a new best friend.  :D

I gave him a call and told him I'll swing by again.  The 69 is a real R/T car.

I don't even know how to respond to a find like that.  Plus the fact that he just handed you a business card and freely invited you to drop in any time.  Unheard of in this day and age.  You had a great day in my opinion.

Yes I agree 85%.  One of the workers got him on his cell and he said please come back, I didn't want you to think I was crazy and making it up.  I replied, the only thing I was thinking when I met you was, wow what a nice guy, he invited me over to see his stuff and talk.  Cool.  :2thumbs:

Thanks for the pictures.  I wish I could dig through the first gens for interior parts. I hope he does something with them to save them all.

mmmmmmm donuts!!! Sooooooo how was the coffee?
Thanks for asking.  :2thumbs:  I get a medium cream and sugar every morning. I try to stay away from the donuts. Try. Sometimes I get a #3. Medium coffee cream and sugar, and a toasted bagel with cream cheese.

Any VINs for the fastbacks??
I need to meet up with this guy and earn a friendship first. I have no idea how private he is and what he is willing to share?  I'll post more info as I go along. For now I'd just like to meet again and be friends.
And then the second after that I'll ask him if he wants to trade my shiny car for his taken apart Hemi car?  :icon_smile_big:
