I live near by and I drive to Harbor Freight on the weekends. So, tuff deal for the foreign Chinese shoppers. They are in my way. I will make it a point to drive an A body cuda by a few times. (Was making a joke, before.) It's getting rare around here, to have an old car event, or even see another Mopar, since the change of population in Santa Clara Co. They love foreign made cars, crowding and our no frost land, just not our auto manufactures. Hell, I'd buy a Maserati if I had the financial support of my native country, too. (Just for the pitch fork on the grill.)

Overcrowding and traffic is a problem around here...  I like getting out on late Sunday afternoons when the roads are relatively open.

I'll be there but my Cuda won't.

I took the rear carb apart and cleaned it, checked plugs and cleaned, checked for vacuum leaks, and it still runs like crap.

Frustrated!  :banghead:

Hi way 280 to  85 and .
It's too crowded on Saturday's to cruise the boulevards during the shopping hours.
Just take Hwy 85 to the next exit past De Anza exit, go to Stevens Creek blvd and you're right there...almost.
Where on the Campus Dr. is the site for spectator parking?

Last year I entered and parked in the lot closest to Stevens Creek.  I don't know whether or not its the same setup this year...

Didn't seem to be as many cars there as last year.
Or vendors.

Good meeting some of you there.

7212Mopar - Warren
72 Hemi - John
4speedfish - Bob
Fy1cuda - Owen
Wade Ogle

And the original 1st owner of a real 71' Hemi Cuda just recently pulled out of storage.

He had alot of attention on his car even though it wasn't a perfect condition car. Some good stories.
The triple black 71 Hemi Charger I thought was the nicest car there.

Good to see you Mike. Sorry your Cuda did not make this year. Did not run into anyone else from this site.

Nice day overall. Three of the owners started their race cars and rev their engines together around 1 pm, gathering a good size crowd. The sound pressure was incredible, just plain awesome. Here are some of the pictures I took today. I like the silver Cuda the most, very clean and beautiful car. Also, sublime must be the color of the year. I counted at least 7 of them.

Somehow I missed everyone too, unfortunately...  Agree it did seem a little smaller this year but still a good time and lots of interesting cars!  Picked up a couple parts as well :thumbsup:

By the looks of your pics you ran into my car, just not me...  That Charger with the supercharger was insane...
