Don’t get too excited. There are no A12s, AARs or winged cars but there is an R/T–an Aspen R/T. The man obviously loved F-bodies. Find more info at Barn Finds of this unique Mopar collection that has hit Craigslist. More pics after the jump.
Did you want to go to the Lambrecht collection auction but live in the Northwest? Did you want to go but are only a Mopar fan? Well, here is your chance. The Charles Kee collection is going up for auction on May 8th and 9th in Brothers, Oregon. Where is Brothers, you ask? It’s in the middle of nowhere in Eastern Oregon, about an hour east of Bend, Oregon. It was a five hour drive for us from Olympia, Washington. Charles Kee was collecting cars to try to start a museum but unfortunately passed away before seeing his dreams come true.
This is an amazing collection of cars and parts but unfortunately a few years ago some Europeans came in and bought a bunch of the better cars from the collection. Most of what are left are C-bodies and 4-door Chryslers with a few scattered B- and A-bodies. Still some good projects in the bunch, however.
We got the opportunity to see the collection and have the scoop on the cars and parts that are going up for auction. Here are some general pictures and we are going to have more details on a few of the best cars. The auction is being run by James G. Murphy–here is a link to the preliminary catalog. Anyone want more info on any cars in particular?
Justin Bell does a quick review of the police version of the Charger, as found on CarBuzz. The police in my town wimped out and went for the Ford. Anybody see one of these beasts in their rear-view mirror? Video after the jump!
Patience can pay off. The new owner of this Challenger T/A waited 14 years for the car’s second owner (who bought it in 1973) to finally sell it. As they only made 2,400 of these cars, that’s one heck of a find. Find the story at Car in Barns. More pics after the jump!
Chrysler makes the best commercials, hands down. Got your eye on a Mopar, new or old? If you’ve got the means, get it! Dodge says so. Video after the jump!
Find more info on the new Challenger and Charger check out Allpar as they go into detail on the 2015 revisions. No word on the Hellcat release yet. More pics after the jump!
Motor Authority is among the first to reveal pictures of the new-for-2015 Challenger and Charger. Both cars get reworked noses and tails with the Challenger getting a much needed interior makeover. The 8 speed transmission now fits under it’s hump. I’ll reserve judgement on the Chargers front end until I see one in person. No pics of the SRT’s or the Hellcat just yet. More pics after the jump!
One has won first place in four judged shows in the last year. The other has won 2012 Playboy Emerald Eyes, 2012 Playboy Cat Eyes and 2013 Southern Vixens. One enjoys a 340 small block and 727. The other enjoys cooking and working out. Find more info at Street Legal TV.
After being purchased 16 years ago with the goal of restoring it, the owner is indicating that this B body, sitting in Michigan, may soon be for sale. Find it at Cars In Barns.
Are you in the market for a Charger or Challenger but are wondering if you should maybe wait for the new, refreshed 2015’s? It appears Dodge is fearing this trend. They are offering a one year lease on a 2014 Charger or Challenger that can then be converted to a 36 month lease on a new, similarly priced 2015 model with no penalties and for the same lease payment. Here’s to having your cake and eating it too! Find more info at Carscoops.
