Went and checked out a Mopar goldmine

[69bronzeT5]

A buddy of mine took me to his dad's place on Saturday. First I went to his house and checked out his '70 440 'Cuda that I haven't seen for about a year. He also has a '03 Viper convertible and a '08 Viper convertible. Then we drove 25 minutes out to his dad's house. I couldn't believe the stuff his dad has there. In his garage, he's got a '68 GTX convertible with a 440 that he drives in the summer. I went down to the basement and he had 2 426 Hemi's sitting on the floor, one was complete. Pistol grip shifters on the wall, Coyote Duster air cleaners, grilles, headlight bezels, a Dana 60, vintage model car kits....just b-body parts galore! Then I went out back to the barn and there was a smashed up 2009 Charger sitting out back along with a bunch of smashed up 2009 Challenger sheetmetal. In the top part of the barn (it was built on a hill) was an orange 2009 Challenger SRT8 that was being fixed after a front end collision (hence the smashed sheetmetal outside). I went down to the lower part and sitting in the dust was a factory R code '70 Hemi Roadrunner project that he's owned since 1971. I went back outside and saw numerous B-body fenders and stuff like that and what caught my eye was a 340 Wedge '71 Duster hood. This guy has Mopar stuff galore, apperentley the loft of the barn is loaded with parts too but we were pressed for time so we didn't check that out. I'll post pictures in a little bit, I got to upload them from my cell phone.

How can he tell a story like that and leave us hangin with no pics! I mean, he would be the first to ask if someone else posted that story, wouldn't he!?

I believe it's from the Roadrunner but that's just my best guess considering the Roadrunner has no engine currently in it

Love those Coyote/Duster tin tops!    And 4spds. 

If I ever get my charger... a 70 cuda is next on the list. 

Thanks Cody!

Not that I know of. You mention it's a GTX that was the mule car, this car is a Roadrunner I do believe nothing is for sale....
