In car video

I'll probably get some ribbing for the Ford that drove around me, but don't get too excited, it wasn't a FE. LOL. Anyways for the stick shift fans here is a video from this last weekend.

Sounded and looked pretty good. I'll admit to being a closet fan of some of the '60s Mopar stuff. A friend in highschool had a '68 383 Roadrunner that I loved. He traded that for a '69 Challenger that he stuck a 440 in and stuffed some 2.75 gears in. That car was scary as hell! It wasn't bad till he'd hit about 150, then you started getting visions of the afterlife. Both were 3 pedal cars.

That's one of the fun things about that era, even just going straight got deadly.  Forget stopping or turning, sissy stuff :)

When I was 16  had to go to driver dumdum school because of tickets. There was guy I knew from sunday school there, his name was howard. He got busted for 150 mph on highway 100 in a GTX.

It's a Mopar. It was probably 1 of 10  ;D ;D

I remember that it was a Challenger, so it must have been a '70 or maybe even a '71. What can I say, I'm a Ford guy ::)

Gee, next thing somebody will say is that they knew someone with a '65 Dodge Charger.

Um, doesn't MOPAR stand for Most Of Parts Are Recycled? I'm sure I read that in an official Chrysler Tech release. What can I say, I'm a Mercury guy.  8)
