Who ever own this car spends some money taking it from auction to auction. It was at both Texas auctions last year (Houston and Dallas Mecum). Pretty sure it was at St Louis Mecum also but not 100% sure.

I'm sure it's the same car....It was beautiful and sounded really healthy =P~ :)

I'd like to say thanks to C for the being so nice to me and Jim at the auction. It was a blast. Jim and I really enjoyed the cars, some really great cars of all makes.

I do appreciate Jim allowing me to stay at his place when in town! Thanks

CB......You're more than welcome and it was truly MY pleasure!! I wish I had more time to spend with you guys. It was great to meet Jim too :thumblef:

I must be crazy :rolleyes: LOL, but I passed up driving the SuperBird across the block for this one instead :D

I dunno, C, I think I might have been tempted to flip the ignition on and fire that Hemi up! Would've given that guy towing it a heart attack.

Great pics! Thanks for sharing. See you at MATS in a month?

I know what you're saying OC, but I didn't want to get fired LOL. It was an honor to just be IN the car knowing who owned it and the history behind it!! Herb gave me a really nice card that he signed. I need to get a picture of that for Keith's thread on famous Mopar autographs.

Thanks for the comments and Yep, see you again in March @ the MATS :cheers:
 
Hi C. Do you happen to have anymore pics of the Lime Green with yellow bumble bee stripe 70 Challenger R/T on the 1st page of this thread. My brother-in-law is restoring for a customer, the exact same car and original color combo. BTW, that combo, lime green w/yellow rump stripe? 7 were ordered that way. The owner of the car is dead set on the black longitudinal stripe rather than the original yellow rump stripe. We are trying to convince him to put the yellow rump stripe back on due to it's rarity.

Those posted are the only ones I took. I tried to copy/paste add'l pics from the website, but they won't work. I can understand the owner's frustration with the color combo. It's definately different.......

See if this page comes thru for you. Lemme know & good to hear from 'ya :cheers:

Lookin' as beautiful as ever, C! Thanks for sharing the pics with us. Some nice iron there.

Don't worry about the little embarrassment with the Edsel. I had to work on a '31 Chevy coupe one time. Bone stock. I knew the key didn't crank the car and it had a starter button. But it took me about fifteen minutes to find it and that was by accident. I happened to be looking around the dash and glanced down at the pedals when I had to stop and count 'em. 1...2...3...4... 4? Yup! There it is! By the clutch! :D

WOW........Thank you ramenth. Good to hear from you & glad you like the pics. Yes, nice iron is right 8) I was definately in my element for over a week :D

I can totally relate to your story of looking around on some of these old cars. This 1920 Buick was my 1st job on Sunday morning. What a doozy to start & drive.......:rolleyes: The gas & starter pedal were really close to each other. Good thing I had narrow shoes on........Not exactly MY kinda car, but I managed ROFL
