Looking for old Charger article

Hey all..

I know a bunch of you collect old magazines and I am hoping someone has a specific issue and can scan in an article for me.

Winter 87-88 edition of Mopar High Performance, article is called Brooklyn Dodger.

The previous owner of my Charger tells me that the article is about my car and while they did scan in the article for me they goofed up the 2nd page of 3. They said that they would take a second shot at it but they didn't get to it and after a few emails I guess it isn't going to happen. So hoping someone out there has it.

Ill start looking for the issue at swap meets when I hit the car shows next year.

You's guys rock.   :METAL:
Any chance I could get the full sized scans from you in an email? I believe you can email me direct via the icon under my avatar.
Got a spare of that issue you want to part with?



Now I need to see if I can figure out what happened to the original engine.

Not what I was thinking,there is an article about a Q5 R/T that had Ct plates on it in a mag some time back.Can't remember the mag though.

I am going to have to spend some time digging through the car to see if there is any evidence of the aftermarket stuff being attached to the dash or if I can find anything else about the history.

Unfortunately it's going to have to wait until spring since I just put her into storage.

If you happen to stumble across the article or any other info on the Q5 car please pass it along.   :cheers:

Yea, when I saw that I kinda figured it gave up the ghost a long time ago.   :-\   Still, the legwork can be fun.
