The Juliano Collection!

[stevenjuliano]

hi charlie....richie in long island told me about this thread. as always, thank you for the kind words. i see that even freddie said something nice (still not going to stop me from choking him). it would be enlightening to see this "stuff" through the eyes of some non-mopar guys. so if a dozen or so guys (or gals) want to come down while i am in town it would be a blast to fire it all up. btw i read where some of the guys on this board made some references to values and costs of this collection. back 15 years ago i was considered the "weirdo who buys the signs" at all the shows. plus the hundreds and hundreds of dealerships REALLY thought ed and i were nuts for buying this "junk" (then again my mentor, ed meyer, IS nuts). those were the days!! with regards to the elusive piece....there is one for sure. its the 4 sided plymouth rapid transit display from 1970 and 1971. all i have is a small piece of it so i know it did exist. stay in touch charlie. best wishes always, steve

Hey Steve... where in NY are you?

[stevenjuliano]

raised in the low income bronx, curently in pelham.

hi steve...always nice to hear from you. love your chopper! soooo cool that you have it all these years. when i was a broke kid i dreamed of a schwinn krate but could only afford a sears bike. someday i hoped to get a schwinn so, in true complusive fashion, i bought the best set known. the sad thing is that i really would rather have my old sears bike. thats more representative of who i am. my kid brother did get a chopper like yours. it was a black 5speed. i was so excited that he let me use it. i rode it to the store. ran in to get him a yoohoo to thank him and came out and it was stolen. its been 35 years and hes still upset. steve you need to come out to socal one day.

One of these days I will make it out there. Tell you what: I'll race your Schwinn with my Chopper. Best 2 out of 3 gets the cuda!

Steven...awesome stuff. I think that it's great that someone had the foresight to start collecting "Way back when"...even if everyone thought that you two were "weird".

Thanks to Charley for the pics...and thanks to you for sharing! Awesome stuff!

Very impressive Collection of MOPAR Cars and items.I love Mopars also and have a 69 dart 340 that is black on black that originally had a Mod Top.So far I find it is one of one.Only black 69 Dart 340 with a Mod Top.Not quite as nice as your Mopars though,but a very respectable driver with a SCREAMING 340.I enjoyed seeing the pictures of your collection keep up the great work in preserving those great years!

Hey Steve, nice to see you on the board. Welcome.

Steve,

I'll be in San Clemente during the end of July and again in mid August. I would definitely take you up on that offer if those time frames work...
