ANTIQUE CAR SHOW PT5

MOPAR fans were not disappointed. This is a rare, 1969 Dodge Challenger Daytona, specially built to qualify the car for use in NASCAR. Richard Petty drove one on the track.


Another rare MOPAR is this 1971 Plymouth Barracuda convertible. 1971 was the last year of the 'Cuda, and only 374 of them were convertibles.


The window sheet says that this is one of only eight cars built with the 383 high-performance engine and 3-speed transmission! It also says that it's still wearing its factory paint, 40 years later!


The lettering on the hood confirms that is does, indeed, have the 383 engine.


To finish the MOPAR section, towing one of the cars to the show in the trailer behind it was this Dodge Ram Mega-Cab with patriotic door handles!
