Re: 2015 MCACN Hemi Cuda and Challenger converts
In commemoration of this incredible happening, we will be producing a very special and <span style="font-weight: bold">VERY Limited Edition</span> hardcover book. This book will have several pages devoted to each of the participating cars and it is 100% devoted to them. The stories and history makes for some pretty interesting reading!
More on this later! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/3gears.gif[/img] Bashton MCACN Managing Member |
Re: 2015 MCACN Hemi Cuda and Challenger converts
smart move Bob. This'll be a keeper and likely not to ever be duplicated (getting so many in one spot at the same time). I suggest, when you get them all together, some outdoors pix to really show off these incredible rides in better lighting than inside the venue.

I am actually working on the book now, and it will be available at the show. Contributors include Wade Ogle and noted photographer/author Randy Leffingwell!

Re: 2015 MCACN Hemi Cuda and Challenger converts
Thanks. I have two, 2-inch-thick albums of photos of the yellow car in as-purchased condition, during disassembly/documentation process, and through the restoration.
And we have an attack-trained Jack-huahua (or is that a Chih-Russell?) [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img] guarding them. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...2-img_1239.jpg The albums really should be with the car. Back in 1987 when I sold the car to Otis Chandler, neither he nor Greg Joseph seemed all that interested in the photos. So I kept them to keep them from being thrown away. |

Ryan </div></div> Well, I do have a daughter in college who could use some help with her student loan. (and it's a state school so it wouldn't be that expensive) [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img] I even have an extra broadcast sheet! - the car had several of them. (this is a low-res black and white scan of the original color sheet so it doesn't get copied too easily) https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...7r1_bcast_.jpg |

LOL. Sadly, I don't think I can go this year due to the aforementioned smarty-pants daughter who wants to continue to attend college. I can't give her too much grief, though. She is double majoring with an additional minor - and she does have a 3.7 GPA going into her Junior year). And she plays rugby - quite a switch from her former HS cheerleading days! Anyone have a well-to-do, eligible bachelor son around here? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/wink.gif[/img] |
Re: 2015 MCACN Hemi Cuda and Challenger converts
Just read on the cuda Challenger FB page that one of the hemi convertibles won't be there and it is not in this bunch. It apparently is a Canadian 70 Challenger vert that still sits in Ontario...

Do you have a link to that FB page?
