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!
Check out Hot Rod for the story of Milburn Varner and his collection of Mopar cars that have sat untouched since he retired from the drag strip in the early seventies. He yanked the Hemi from a 1967 Belvedere GTX convertible to transplant to his race ‘Cuda! He still has both. He refuses to sell or restore, “I ain’t sellin’ this stuff–it’s all about braggin’ rights, and the money don’t mean as much as these old cars and all of the good memories they gave me.” That’s fine in my book but still, a bit of soap and water would do wonders.

After being in storage for the past 10 years, this 318 powered Challenger is on eBay with no reserve. Automatic transmission, power brakes, power steering, power windows and a/c would make this one sweet cruiser. Find it on Bring a Trailer and follow the auction here on eBay.

We just attended the Mopar Spring Fling car show on April 5th and 6th in Van Nuys, California. It was an awesome show as usual with a ton of parts and cars to see–it really is the biggest and best car show and swap west of the Mississippi. More pics after the jump!

This 1970 Barracuda was recently purchased by owner number two after sitting neglected for 15 years. The new owner is taking a rather unique approach to it’s restoration. “I’m taking donations for the restoration, every donor can have a ride when it’s done!” Good luck with that.

Finnish people love their Mopars too! Check out Street Legal TV for more info on this muscle meeting in Finland. Video after the jump!
It’s been 50 years since Plymouth rolled out the world’s first pony car, even before the term pony car was coined. It came into the world quietly, grew to intimidate the competition with big blocks, hemispherical combustion chambers and SCCA racing, then bowed out quietly just as the fuel crisis hit. Read a great recap of the Barracuda at Hemmings.
