Nice! I remember that Swedish Super Stock Dart....had a twin plug Hemi, pretty exotic back then, also did serious wheelstands IIRC :D

That 71 Challenger vert is interesting!! Not mine, I've seen very few in the UK over the years, any ideas on the story with that one??

In the mid 1970s I used to drive my 68 coronet every day to work from Walthamstow to Marble arch. You could park in the street all day then. That's how I met Graham Arno I was driving round Trafalgar Square and he jumped in front of the car and wanted to now all about it and where I bought it

So would I!

Blue: My AMC Javelin and I terrorised West London around '80 to '82 - I wonder if you caught us on your camera?

Dunn,
The orange Challenger was in the public parking field at the Pod.
The Red light Bandit Challenger is also at the Pod. They used to have 2 old buses joined together as seating for the VIP's before the grandstands went in :roll:
Gavin,
That convertible used to live on a side turning off the A10 in Enfield in about '75, the same guy had a couple of Mustangs before that, that's all I can tell you.

Thanks Blue, interesting. I looked on the DVLA site and seems to last have been taxed in '87!

Hmm, do you remember that customised gold convertible with the the Koffel motor that used to race at the pod in the '80's? wondering if it was that car? I've not seen it for many years now.

Yes, I do remember that, I have some photos somewhere. IIRC that was a '70, but it was so heavily modified it could have been anything - maybe it had the 70 rear lights....
