when was the aussie charger meet photo taken??

wonder how many of them ended their days with a chain welded into the roof a roll cage no interior and half a jag in a similar state rammed up their backend

I reckon it was about '88. I sold the car in '89 having owned it for 4 years, and I think the next owner killed it. Ran it deep into the ground. Can't even remember where the club meet was? I remember meeting up somewhere near Windsor I think? Still trying to remember who did all the organising back then... Jeez, it's terrible getting old.

I thought that meeting was a few years before that? Mid 80s I thought? I lost my Charger in 1989 and I am sure it was a few years before that.

Might have been a couple of years before that. Can't remember. Getting old, and the past is growing hazy...

It must have been a later meeting than the one I thought it was.
The one I was going to go to was the very first meeting. Possible the same location.
It was a one day only thing so not really accessible for me.

That meet must have been pre 88,both meets were on the thames embankment,between chelsea and albert bridge,think ian spencer ,club chairman at the time was probably responsible for organisation,biggest group of valiants ive ever scene together.

Dave I think this was the matt black 2 door from ebay that was in Redhill, Surrey - had supposedly been used in a German pop video, another one I missed as I was at the opposite end of the country...

Still on the computer so its not been officially scrapped
