I was just wondering if there are any mopar clubs around the northeastern part of ohio. I have been attending a lot of events and would like to have some cool mopar guys to cruise with. Anybody know of a car club around here? or is anybody interested in getting together to go to events around here??

There is the Mid-Ohio Mopars out of Wooster. I used to be an active member, but with home and work life don't do much with them any more. Their annual show and swap meet is the 29th and 30th at Dragway42.

i used to belong to the Ohio Mopar Association in
Columbus,Ohio.
a very good club, i don't know if they still exist
as i no long am a member, its been along time.
there used to be a cruise strip on Brice Rd.
it was stopped for a time, they were instrimental in
getting it started again as a car show.
this was in the mid 90's.
it was an outstanding club, they had everything from
antiques to full out drag racers.
there was a guy who ran a exibition mid-engine wheelie truck.
i hope their still a club and you can find them. :thumbup:

I am from Macedonia, Ohio. I am also a former member of The Mid-Ohio Mopars. I attended the the annual show, swap meet and drag race this
year. The Solon Cruise is 6.5 miles from my house. They routinely have 750-800 cars on a Tuesday night. It's the biggest cruise in Ohio.

Nice Demon... Which hemi is that? Is it a crate-motor? Kinda looks like an older intake style..

I think we need something around here. There is a pretty good Mopar presence around here. Maybe we need to organize a Mopar only show and get everyone together and go from there. I know Summit has several shows, do they do a Mopar only???

There is a Cruise in every friday night in the dayton area at Quaker Steak in Fairborn Its nothing major just guys getting together to hang out. I believe it starts either this friday or next But I will most likely always be there on friday nights anyone in the area should swing by. My Dart and my buddies Challenger are usually the only Mopars there it would be nice to have a few more.

Hey everyone in Ohio,
My brother has a 73 Duster Dragcar for sale in Atwater, Ohio. It has a 440, tubbed ,linelock, fiberglass hood and front bumper. If some of you used to go to Thompson Drag raceway the car was a gold color car called B.C. Then my brother got it and painted it red and named it Daddy's Toy and used to race it at Quaker City. and now he has it for sale for $6,800 or Best Offer It is race ready 11:20's in 1/4.

I would be interested in meeting up w/ some people in the Dayton area this summer. I am just North of Dayton in the Fairborn area. Usually the only meets I ever see are the Quaker Steak meets which everyone had started going to the BW3's in Beavercreek which has some decent turnouts in all classes and there is a car meet @ BW3's in Huber Heights on Saturdays but is mostly tuners. I won't be ready for a little bit we're going to get her ready for paint in the next couple of weeks.
Also the Fairborn car show is a diamond in the rough. I know one of the guys that hold it and he has a sweet Hemi Cuda and some other really nice muscle cars as do some other people in the area. I will try to find out the date but I think it is usually around July or August.

Dayton is a little far from me! but hope u get some responses

lawndart360
04-12-2007, 02:43 PM
Dayton is a haul for me too! Someone mentioned the tuesday evening cruise in Solon, does that take off as soon as the weather breaks???

I'll have to check Summit, i'm almost certain they have a Mopar only show, would be a good excuse to get together.

Anyone going to Canfield in a couple weeks?

twisted340
04-12-2007, 05:00 PM
ya most likely..going to canfield...what date is that swap meet?never very much mopar stuff up there... I think they are all stashed (MOPARS) in the local barns...

lawndart360
04-12-2007, 06:49 PM
4/27-4/29 - and your right, not much Mopar, but it only takes me finding one thing i'm looking for to make me happy. There was a guy there last year with great prices on weatherstrip. I also get a lot of body supplies there, and a lot of junk food!!!

340dartswinger
04-13-2007, 07:03 AM
i was at the Summit show last year seeing as how its 5 mins from my house. good turn out- i havent seen it on summits calender yet this year, so i hope they do it again. if they do i will be there

I still cruise with a good friend with his 72 340 Demon. we go to shows together, Us in my 72 340 Duster. Will be at the Nats This Sat be not bringing the car. My buddy will be judging his Hemi Orange Demon.
