I love these old pics of the cars.
They have so much history and really we’re not meant to be around still. As blue says, age related plate changes, paint, etc…
I mean I k ow mine was in a ‘79T plate and was gold from factory, then blue, then grey… it’s at least 2 cars haha - triggers broom rolls on …

The hood stripe on Steve's was Matt black and it had a 727 which he blew up resulting in a hole in the trans tunnel, I think it bruised his foot as well. I've got a picture of the hole somewhere.

Yes I remember it well, when we took the trans out it was in about 4 pieces. Steve was lucky not to have been badly hurt, front drum explosions can be proper nasty.

Yes, I bought a trans shield after that

I still don’t run one but 904’s are less prone to exploding than 727’s.

I don't remember their being much room in an A body for one either.

There's more, starting with Richard Eaton's Roadrunner. The names of the owners of the next two pics elude me. Some more of Blues Barracuda, Jason on the right. My Dart Bob Browns Daytona

Dunno about the red 71 but the black 71 roadrunner was owned by the Peach Brothers from down Brighton way.
The green 69 Charger was Neil Crozier's - not sure where it is now (as said before, prob on an age-related plate) but he's now got a nice white 70 Challenger with a stroked small block

Yes I remember it well, when we took the trans out it was in about 4 pieces. Steve was lucky not to have been badly hurt, front drum explosions can be proper nasty.

Here's the picture of Steve's car after the trans explosion. The gas pedel isn't where it used to be.

Pretty sure the red 71 belonged to Pete Jordan

Blimey, that was a close call !

Blues newly aquired Duster. 68 Hemi Dart from Sweden, I think this was a genuine car looking at the vin plate, it was a bit rough round the edges though. And a Hemi Barracuda from Norway, it did a huge wheelstand and came crashing back to earth and that was the last I saw of it.

Two from the Chelsea Cruise.
Nice 70 Duster with a couple of Superbirds behind Another Superbird on the opposire side of the road. Not sure who owned this Cuda even though it is parked outside where I used to live. Richard Eatons Duster. Swedish Hemi powered Challenger. Hemi Cuda. Here racing a Dart.

The yellow Duster had a 383 in it, the son of the guy that owned it then is currently looking for it. The Red Barracuda belonged to Steve and Lorraine from Edmonton.

The red Superbird was John Castleman’s, original petty blue car it ended up with Pete Wiseman before going back to the States.
