I’ve seen this car in person a few times at the Mopars Unlimited Spring Roundup and it’s very cool. But now it’s gotten featured by the Associated Press and has been picked up by a bunch of mainstream blogs. Read the full article at Komo News!
Hmmmm, that cut out in the hood doesn’t look quite big enough, does it..? Side shot after the jump! Via Reddit
This thing has all the goodies from modern 6.1 Hemi power to big Willwood brakes. Wheels are custom Boze Alloy with Yokohama Advan STs–235/55R18 front and 305/45R20 rear. External mods include a ’72 Road Runner grille and a tucked ’71 Road Runner bumper. I dig the fiberglass hood with the old school Air Grabber. See more pics after the jump and check out the auction at eBay!
Update: it got bid up to $35,300 but reserve not met. Is the pro touring thing played out?
Ok, here’s an obscure one. Most people who watched Dazed and Confused are gonna remember Matthew McConaughey’s 1970 Chevelle. But do you remember this black wing car? I sure don’t! Need to watch it again, I guess. We’ll come back to Ben Affleck’s 1973 Plymouth Duster later. Trailer after the jump! Pic via IMCDB
Turns out it was fairly rusty and missing the engine, but still very cool. Full story at Cars in Barns
Out of five stamps total, Ma Mopar scored two stamps on the new USPS Muscle Car Stamps: a 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona and a 1970 Plymouth Hemi ‘Cuda (which you can see after the jump). Not bad! Get them today before they’re gone! Via USPS
Talk about rare! They just made 203 of these–and most are gonna be either long gone or fully restored. This one looks like an awesome project, despite some obvious rust here and there (needs trunk and floors). A few more pics after the jump and you can see the rest on eBay!
Update: looks like it sold for $12,050!
Welcome to our first Movie Mopar of the Week! I’m gonna try to do one per week (and I’ll probably include TV cars as well).
When people think of Joe Dirt they usually think of the Superbird. We’ll get to that one later. My favorite Mopar in the movie is the ’67 GTX convertible. It’s most likely a ’67 Belvedere cloned to look vaguely like a GTX (though it has a bench seat, plus wrong paint and hood stripes). Anyway, watch the great video compilation with this car after the jump! Oh, and also be sure to check out this guy’s Joe Dirt GTX tribute car.
