The Cars fifth album was released in 1984 with this cool 1971 Duster 340 on the cover. According to Wikipedia the artwork was from a 1972 piece by Peter Phillips called “Art-O-Matic Loop di Loop.” You can see the full cover folded out after the jump!
What’s your favorite Mopar album cover?
This 2010 Dodge Challenger is downright evil with a supercharged 426 Hemi stroker kit and over $55,000 invested in upgrades. Seller claims 1,043 horsepower. Yours for just $69,999! More pics plus specs after the jump! Via Denver Craiglist
How cool is this? The Make-A-Wish Foundation just finished the restoration of this 1968 Dodge Charger for teenage cancer patient Matthew Wood in Canyon, Minnesota. Matthew was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma and he, his brother and father had not been able to make much progress on the Charger they had acquired ten years ago. Morrie’s Automotive Group took over, repainted the car and rebuilt the original 318 drivetrain. They completed the 600 man-hour job just two weeks ago and gave Matthew the keys. As you might imagine, Matthew was thrilled. Major props to everyone involved. One more pics after the jump! Via Hemmings
Can whitewalls look cool on a Mopar? The answer from the folks at Moparts seems to be yes! Tons of Mopars with whitewalls after the jump–I think this Challenger is my favorite.
Why not? It’s summer. (Or almost summer.) Makes perfect sense to drive that old Jeep Cherokee into the pool! Video after the jump! Via Jalopnik
Looks like the Chrysler Employee Motorsport Association had a good turnout for their annual show this past weekend on the grounds of the Walter P. Chrysler Museum in Auburn Hills, Michigan. One of the coolest cars was undoubtably Doug Schellinger’s 1970 Plymouth Superbird. You can see a bunch more pics at Mac’s Motor City Garage. 
I already showed you the ’69 Charger ad that Jalopnik thinks is the most sexist ad off all time. Well, this one isn’t sexist, but it’s definitely awesome. (And it doesn’t hurt that the ’67 GTX is an awesome car.) In fact, I think this is my all-time favorite Mopar ad. What’s yours?
We haven’t covered a lot of 80s cars so far. How about the Conquest, built by Mitsubishi and sold as a Dodge, Plymouth and Chrysler? They are becoming increasingly hard to find, especially in stock form. This one sold recently on eBay for $1,780 but it sounds like it had a blown motor. There is a good writeup on these increasingly rare cars over at Hemmings.
I think they should never have stopped making the Neon. The Caliber was a misstep. And honestly, the new Dart has a lot more in common with the Neon than it does with the original Dart. Nothing wrong with that, though–the Neon was cool. Like this one running Rally America. Pic via DodgeForums
I found this 1968 Dodge Charger burnout pic on the internet a while ago and saved it down to my desktop. I don’t know who’s car this is or who took the pic but it rules. I have the wallpaper size here. Have you found a better burnout pic?
