Sam's (Mockingbird812) 71 440 Charger

This was a write up for Randy Bolig at Mopar Muscle magazine. I worked very closely with the original owner (Steve Cadalso) in putting this story together. It took me awhile to track him down. He was a tremendous help and we had fun. I thoroughly enjoy researching the history of these beautiful beasts. This R/T's story was just begging to be told. You can read the edited version in the May '05 edition of Mopar Muscle if you expand the 1st few pictures to the hi res versions in the link to my albums:

The video is completely over the top . It sends you right back to the day. Will give it a try to allow you to see video (am a bit dense in this arena). I will be working with a friend to set it up on my web page for the Charger:

Sam,

Your Charger is simply wonderful! Plus, you are a guy to boot!

In case the others who frequent this site haven't picked up on this already...Sam is one of the nicest, down to earth guys I've ever met. He is the epitome of being a muscle car enthusiast!

Here's to you, Sam and when we get together for that cookout...the are on me!

Sam,

Beautiful car! I live just outside of Albany, NY, so seeing your story was especially interesting to me.

Driving around I always wonder what classic cars are sitting in garages and barns...and have been untouched for years.

thanks for the story!

Paul
