Tim Wellborn has amassed an incredible collection of muscle cars over the years. At Mecum’s Kissimmee auction in January, half of his 46 cars will be crossing the auction block. With his first taste of muscle cars being his father’s 1971 Dodge Charger, he has always held Mopars in high esteem. Of the 23 cars going to auction, 15 are Mopars! Find more info of these very special cars at Hemmngs. Pics of Tim’s Dodges and Plymouths that will be leaving his collection after the jump!

Nelson Racing Widebody 1968 Charger Returns to SEMA
We showed you this car last year. Now it’s back and badder than ever. But even with over 2,000 hours in that body–which is six inches wider than stock–it’s still not quite done… Oh, and regarding the motor: the 9.4 liter Hemi is rated at over 2,000 horsepower. More pics after the jump!

O.CT Tuning SRTs
So you can’t wait until the fall for a Hellcat or maybe you want similar power output from your Ram or Grand Cherokee? Give O.CT Tuning in Germany a call.
