This car got a ton of attention at the Nats!
« on: August 12, 2014 - 12:47:17 PM »
While at the Nats this year, this car got so much attention that every time I went by there would be a crowd surrounding it.  Tough to get pictures but I managed finally! 

Story was it was in a building that caught fire before the show, was pulled out while on fire and the owner still brought it to the show.   :2thumbs:

That car was also @ MOPARS at the STRIP (Union Grove) The scariest thing was when I saw a kid (maybe like 13-14??) hop in, fire it up and drive it away.  :faint:  I take it, it was the owners son (?????????)  But of he hits someone or somebodys car then what????  :nono:

Yes, that was his son.  However, the older we get, the younger a 16 year old looks to us.  I'll bet he was at least 16.

That is very sad, especially when you can see what it looked like in the pics on the board.

So would that car be known as a "Charracuda"

Sorry for the dark humor and honestly feel for the owner's loss.
It was just there for the take.
