Mopar Nationals 2015

-
How could anyone say the Nats are no good. I went a couple years ago and it was the be collection of mopars I have ever seen! I think it could be organized a little better (car placement), but the whole thing was unreal.
 
Last year was my first year attending the Nats. I had an awesome time. I didn't have a car to take last year, but I'm definitely excited to drive my duster there this year. I'm going to try to make it to Carlisle too, but its about an eight hour drive from Indianapolis. It sure would be a fun journey though!
 
I'm actually looking forward to it. I'll be taking my little one to her first car show, mopar only of course. I went a few years back and had a blast. Just hoping it's not too hot.

WOW, I can't believe this line-up!
 
The bride and I will be there again this year!! Hope to meet more members this time!!!


FYI, there's also a good Mopar show in September in Nashville, TN. Not sure what the dates are yet. It's a Friday through Sunday event. See you all at the shows!

Tell me more! Tell me more!!
 
Last year was my first time to the Nats,,,,it was awesome! We are a 2000 miles one way and we are coming back this year. Like Denny said, you just have to be hangin with the right crowd and we definitely were! I also like the Nats because its more then just the car show.

Maybe we can get some of those Missile cars lined up on the dragstrip? .....for pics...or run em, whichever...lol.

And mostly I'm returning for more of the cheese sandwich joke :O

The guy ( HemiMark) owns a bar....damn good one too. .....always new material to keep us laughing (if only we were really just laughing at the joke)
 
I'm gonna have to make sure I stop by Denny's tent for sure. Planning on going, ive been before but never through the swap meet, any thoughts on that ? Looking to pick up some sheet metal and save on shipping costs.
 
Wish I could go but haven't hit the lottery yet. Had fun last year overall.
I'll be waiting at home for all the pictures.

Get a quote from Stephens Performance. They bring truck loads with them and get deliveries during the show.
 
I will be there,Staying at super 8 Brice road.Very impressive line up Ill have to stop by and say hi..............................................jeff
 
I'm going to be there. This will be my first time as well. I won't be driving my Duster, just want to check out this venue that everyone has been talking about.
 
Running sportsman with Dart.Son may run RT, rt still in pieces in my garage. He tore it down after May classic at trials.Not happy with 1/4 times. 13.6 out of dart. Only thing i am changing is adding frame ties.Need to check out the no chicken sandwich party.
 
As per a conversation I had today, I believe you can change that PENDING to ATTENDING on Ben Dunhoff's Mopar Missile Duster ! There are two of us that will be joining Ben in the festivities ! Looking forward to this !!

I'd like to say that too. Ben called me last night and related that he is 99 & 99/100% sure he will make it but
has to wait until the 23rd before knowing absolutely for sure. I hope he does; nicest guy you will ever meet.
 
On a sorry note it looks like Rodzilla had to make a last minute change due to his job and will
not be making it this year. I know that this hurts him as much as it hurts us.

Always a distinct pleasure to see Rod and Keila throughout the weekend. You will be missed!
