He looks the same as always...a little older like all of us. :-\
Yep it looks like the guy Alan, if he's from Prairie du Chien  it wouldn't be that far a drive for him to go to the show. Personally I would never pay to have someone tell me what I had, but I'm not into car restoration for money either. I have my car to drive and beat the hell out of for fun and take to shows to talk to other Mopar guys. Everyone would like an original car but once it's restored it isn't original anymore no matter how much a person argues the point.  :burnout:

Most likely him.....he's still very involved in the hobby, if now only for personal interest...you can't get that stuff out of your blood.

I saw that tag on a 'cuda in Minneapolis at Mopars in the Park two years ago. It was a hemi cuda convertible clone.  That was the third tag on the fender if i remember right.

Boy, Has this ever been a long term love/hate relationship.
 There appears to be a lot anger out there surrounding this guy. Most of the knowledge needed to decode and document our cars and the degree of originality (if that's important to you) is out there on the web for free. 

Who really needs this guy, unless you need to sell a very high end car and the buyer without some knowledge of what he buying is looking for some assurances.

No one really wants to put up with the long term BS and lack of responsiveness that he seems to probogate.
Fame is fleeting and his actions only hurt him in the long run.

Such a joy to watch someone run over to your car when you are about 500 ft away, take a pic of your data plate and then run away like a child when approached.

What a class act.

Not!

Perhaps so, but he has also alienated a lot of the hobby. While someone can celebrate what they did in life, what you do now is just as important. Not saying he hasn't done anything or has always been hated, but his current status is of his own doing.

As you travel through life, you can't keep everybody happy. I know a lot of "big players" in the Mopar hobby and many of them still have Galen in their corner....As I've said, I've got nothing but nice things to say about him and his contributions to our hobby. :worshippy: :drunk:

Is there anyone else out there that can confirm numbers like GG?  Have a buddy with a 318 '71 Challenger survivor with the wide molding around the front end.  Probably pretty rare option, but how rare?  Factory A/C car with other unique options.  Buddy has contacted GG with no response since February this year.
