Looks familiar

Post by CtownRunner » Sun Nov 05, 2006 10:06 pm

I seem to think that car looks familiar. Like a Mopar mag (pic one) ran a picture of it in the past 2-3 yrs. Don't ask me which one or when but I swear I saw that car in a Magazine. I only get Mopar car magazines so it narrows it down a little. Most likely Mopar Muscle or Mopar Action. I've only been gettin Mopar Collectors Guide for about 1 yr now.

I could be day dreaming again. The flames really look familiar.

Maybe I saw it on some other Mopar board. I swear I have seen that car's picture and not from 1983.

As a kid I had that issue, but would rather doubt still having it....

I you can read the artical...in the last paragraph...he was at the track with
his "13.78" quarter mile car and totally btoke his DANA REAR END???
what..

Also check out how detailed the stats are....everything is there even how
tall the tires were...exactly how much the rear end was narrowed......
Mags today just gloss over this stuff.

Not sure how long these will be up...."I'm maxing my upload"
