[Devil]

Well you will need to pick up the current issue of Hot Rod Magazine for the adventure. But I'll show you some pictures.

1969 Charger 500, Hemi car with a 4-speed. B5 blue, blue interior.








There was also the 67 Hemi GTX 4-speed car in front of it.





He also had rows of Mopars... including a 64 Fury Max Wedge Car.







In the first trailer... he had is dual 4-bbl collection





Then he showed me his 1st Gen Hemi collection....





AND then we entered the barn that he boarded up in 1994 because someone broke in.













Some Uber rare NASCAR early 426 Hemi Stuff

Hmmmmmm, I can't IMAGINE why anyone would have wanted to break into that barn in 1994 [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/shocked.gif[/img] Man, that is some chunk of Mopar heaven there. Wonder what that radiator shell is with the word &quot;CHRYSLER&quot; vertically in raised letters on the side.....some type of industrial engine setup? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/confused.gif[/img]

That was a Hemi powered irrigation pump from the 50's. He had 2 of them!

Indeed, it was a cool place to see.

there used to be several hemi powered irrigation pumps in the local farm fields, many still operational into the 80's

Would be a nice collection if it were being stored and cared for ..Just looks like rare cars and parts being turned to scrap iron by a hoarder .Sad very sad ...

I remember visiting Hugo Auto Salvage in Hugo, MN around 1979-80. They had a 426 Hemi running the body crusher the day I stopped by. I asked the salvage owner if he would sell the motor. Not a chance! He said it was the best one he ever used to run the crusher.
