I'll be visiting Bloomington tomorrow driving my low gas milage, smog belching, jewel of the 60s.

Does the movie "Bullet" bring a tear to your eye?

Nice ride. 68 Charger 500? Flat rear window?

 

[KJQ6945]

Love mopars, my dad had a couple.

57 plymouth fury with a 440, and a 70 hemi cuda.

He sold them both mid in the 70s.

Needless to say it makes him sick to watch barrett-jackson auctions.

 

[Leadeye]

Took best of show for non GM vehicles, lots of nice cars there. Was parked next to the best looking E Type Jaguar I've ever seen, a 1963.

 

[Kernal1984]

Congratulations!

Is that a DOHC inline 6 in the jag?

Dont know much about jaguar but that is real nice under the hood.

 

[Leadeye]

Inline DOC in the jag, what was remarkable were the engine parts that had been polished up and the detail that went into the entire car. While there were some non original features like an upgraded electrical system and car stereo it was very nicely done, sort of a mild resto mod of the car.

 

[Leo]

The original Jag six is a long stroke, high torque, commercial inline that was fitted with a twin cam 2 valve cylinder head. That was the only Jag engine ever used other than the ohc v-12 until the Ford years.

I am a mopar fan and old enough to have ridden in that car when it was new. That era of Detroit Muscle excited me when I first saw them. They still have that effect now. Nice ride.
