Wow, that's a nice combination to have in the garage. I think you need a red 75 Grand Torino next.

Ha!
Yeah, or an Interceptor
I dig the TA, prob drive that. Late at night do you sneak it out and put on a mustache?

Really nice display !  Both cars look fantastic !!  Also, a very nice job putting together the display !!

I remember cruising the junkyards for parts and the "For Sale" lots looking for nice older MOPARS back in the mid-70's and seeing they were already getting scarce. I found a great condition 1970 Challenger R/T on a lot in the older low-income side of town and asked the price for cash as it had a $1700.00 price sign on it. The manager of the lot said he couldn't sell me the car at any price as he had already repossessed it 3 times and it was his best seller! He said I would give him the money and it would be gone and he makes too much money on the car! All I could say was WTF and walk away!

Got off-subject a little with the story but I really like your display and cars !!  Congrats !!

Thanks for all of the kind comments guys. I was a little disappointed how the cars did at the show - but you don't drive a car to a show like that and expect win against cars that are pushed on and off the trailer. Both cars got 4th in their class- I was told there were 35+ in the categories I was in. The 69 came in 4th behind (3) 69 camaro's. In all fairness people spend stupid money on those cars and the money goes a lot further on a camaro. The TA had a lot of competition as well and looking at the judges notes I felt they were pretty fair.

Still- I am fine with how the cars did. The amount of people surrounding the cars over the course of the four days was amazing. Several photos of the cars showing up on twitter and Instagram; families taking photos in front of the cars- hell I waited in line to take a picture of my kids in front of the cars! These were easily the most photographed cars at the show.

Here are a few photos of the cars towards the end of the show- look much better with the hoods down!

There's the 'show and shine' trophies and there's the 'evoke some priceless memories' trophies and I'd say you won both in the latter category.  I'm not a fan of movie and TV cars, but that was one hell of a display I would have enjoyed to see with my own eyeballs.   :2thumbs:

4th is pretty respectable when you look at the size of the event.  Well done :cheers:
