Doug’s 1958 Plymouth
Doug has recently gotten his old heap fired up again with a new engine and fresh coat of primer. I believe it is running a Chevy 383 stroker with a TH350. DONUT WHEEL in LIVERMORE!!! Nice shot at dusk. I was adding the old pictures I took of your car to the new version of my webpage, and it turns out those pictures were taken 6/24/03. Exactly six years to the day after I took those pictures we happen to go back out and take another batch of photos! Not sure if that is fate or coincidence...
Fresh Paint for Tony’s 1966 Plymouth Barracuda
Tony's Barracuda had been sitting in primer for years until Ian came along a month ago and started the heavy duty bodywork process. He was trying to get it finished for the Mopar Alley car show, but even though he missed that goal, the car is now painted. The paint is a 1971 Mopar color, "Sassy Grass Green". I would have been hard to have picked more eye-poppin' color for the car. They have some ideas for black stripes, so I'll have to snap some more pictures later! When I took these pictures that paint was only hours old!
Mopars North of the Gate 2009
Wine Country Mopars put on a show every year at Infineon Raceway. It's one of my favorites, because it combines all the popular elements us car guys like: Drag Racing, a Car Show, and a small Swap meet! This year I drove my Challenger up for a little drag racing. Kyle brought his Coronet, and we met Steve with his Belvedere there and Bill with his Coronet. This black on black 1970 Dodge Challenger 426 Hemi RT/SE was my favorite car of the show! This was the First Run in my 1970 Dodge Challenger. Ran a 14.1 at 97 ...
First Time Out! Drag Racing my 1970 Dodge Challenger!
Every summer the Wine Country Mopars host an event at Infineon Raceway. This year was the first year my Challenger was running and driving, so it took no encouragement from anyone to take it drag racing! This was the First Run in my 1970 Dodge Challenger. Ran a 14.1 at 97 mph with a stock 440 w/ headers, intake, and 750 dbl pumper. No slicks. This was the second run in my 1970 Dodge Challenger. They had started the bracket racing, so both Kyle and I dialed in with a 14.00. I ran a 13.9 at 99 mph, so ...

My Cars
Finally a chance to snap a decent shot of my 1940 Dodge Coupe. I’ve been bolting parts together randomly, just to see what it looks like and what I need.
The front frame is constructed of 2×3 tubing C-clamped to the old frame section, resting upon a 1948 Ford I-beam axle. Not permanent by any means. I’m probably going to be using a Dodge Dakota front frame section, just because so many other hot rodder’s good words. I’d prefer to use a old original frame, but finding one would be next to impossible.
