Anyone going to the Mopar car show in Florida?

Otherwise it's just going to be old folks Cubans and Disney fags....

 

[Stormer]

Can't make it, I'll be at Disney.

 

[commando1]

And I'm old. Who's Cuban here?

Carsten: I went up to Ocala once to check out a "14k" mile New Yorker.
I'll save the "14k" mile NYB for another day, but, two women who possessed
the car took me on a tour of their father's boarded up Chrylser dealership in a shabby run-down section of old downtown.
It was a time capsule of the sixties. The showroom, the service area.. Incredible.
A dark and dusty time-warp.

Is that building still intact? That would be great to see.
We're going Sunday.

This was five years ago so I don't know. It's all boarded up so you can't see anything from the outside. Just a sad, abandoned, onetime downtown dealership.

By the way, A Swede just left my house an hour ago. Visiting Florida. Staying up in Winter Park I think he said. He's here buying Moparts to take back. Sold him my 440.

 

[Stormer]

Now why would you do that? Got scared? ;)

 

[commando1]

Got what I wanted out of it, the 452 heads. I'm going to throw my stand and hoist on CL tomorrow. I'm pretty sure I'm done with transplants forever at this point.

How did he find you??

 

[commando1]

I had an ad on CL.
Evidently, this Swede, comes to the U.S. once a year. He stays a month. He's over to buy up Mopar stuff for friends back home.
He must stuff them in a container and bring the container back when he goes home.
His eyes are darting around 360 degrees at 120 mph while asking every 60 seconds "got any other Mopar stuff you want to sell?"
Someone must have a long-standing order in for a set of 1957 D-500 NOS emblems....

 

[65Fury440]

I have some parts I could get rid of.

That would be awesome. I live for old stuff in general and old Chrysler stuff more.

Went to the Garlits show, pretty good turn out.
Only seen one Sea body in the show though.
Got to get a pic taken with Mr. Garlits, I bought a signed ring and pinion.Good time, great museum.
