Congratulations on the 'GIFT'...     I think my gifts from Grandma were more like the $1 versions...    I should look in her old barn... maybe she has a '68 Charger R/T hiding in there somewhere...    :o    :scratchchin:

Are any of you related to, or have connections with the B-Body design team in Highland Park during the development of the original Charger?   

During the Stone Soup Roadrunner  raffle for WRIF the design team came out of retirement.  My father was part of that team and I am trying to find out more about what occurred in that era (my father has passed away).  When his name was mentioned at the rally, the guys all began talking about him (2nd hand knowledge, I was not in attendence).  I will not disclose his name on the Internet, but if any knew him, this is the only clue I believe they will need - Italian guy who loved baseball, broads and booze.  He was also an accomplished musician (sax and clarinet) and was a leader on the design team. 

As a kid, he would bring home some bad a** rides, even the concept cars.   I rode in this very car...




Thanks
