Found this today!
« on: February 20, 2011 - 04:22:11 PM »
Drove past a defunct Dodge dealership while we were house hunting today.  Thought I saw something through the glass, so we doubled back.



The shaker has a cuda383 emblem on it.  The car is billboard delete with a gullwing on the rear and rides on Magnum 500's.

The guy has a little of everything scattered around...drop-top Dakota Sport, 68 or 69 Superbee, late Dodge Charger (Cordoba body) and an early 60's Dodge limousine.

Talked to the owners son many years ago. Back then it sounded like they had alot of E bodies tucked away. Subway motors had been in the business for a long time till Chrysler shut them down.

 :droolingbounce:  WOW !!!   

That is some find.  Now if you can just get him to part with it for less than a fortune.

Where's all the parts cars?? 

Are you gonna try to talk with the owners some time?
