Mopars at The Red Barn

[Bad Sport]

If you haven't been, you need to attend. What an awesome facility, show, swap meet and on and on.

Went today and snagged up a manual steering column, some beautiful new in the box chrome exhaust tips, a recurved dizzy, some plug boot covers and a few other small items, all for right at 100 bucks.

The cars were spectacular, I would have to guess close to 300 anywhere from early 60's C bodies right up through modern muscle.

I snapped a few photos but I ran out of film.

Met HemiDenny and Old Man Mopar.

What an absolutely beautiful job Denny did on his Duster.

Got kind of a neat story with this one. Really made my day, my 4 year old Grandson is a pretty sharp little dude.

We were walking through looking at the cars and happened on this one.

Now, a few weeks ago we were sitting here and looking at cars online and I happened by a 66 Charger like the one above, and he asked me what it was and I told him.

Fast forward to today, we came up on this car and he stopped, looked at the car looked at me and said "Grandpa, that's a Charger isn't it?"

:tongue9: He's only FOUR!!

Looks like a nice show & thanks for posting the pics....

The story of your grandson recognizing the Charger is awesome..Maybe a future MoparMan 8)

Yes, good show. I made a pass through, and scored an original air grabber air cleaner and base for my 71 R/T charger. paid dearly, but they are pretty scarce. Lots of nice cars this year.

Gotta truck, might be able to get a cheap engine for the rest of the season.

I'm pondering whether or not to go. I've got a new 68 Hemi Charger that's been taking up most of my weekends fiddling with odds and ends.

I got the green light from the missus to bring the 360 over to Mike but we're waiting on some funds to come in first

I might keep an eye out for a factory high stall convertor or that passengers idea indicator lens

I should, but its just not going to be ready. I have the passenger exhaust manifold off trying to get the choke tubes rebuilt, a stripe going back on, and back to the original wheels and tires.

 

[Bad Sport]

OK guys, who all is going? It's tomorrow!!!

 

[diymirage]
