And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Nope on the white also. I had a 9 year old Cuda w/ a 440 base model 4-speed as a senior in HS in 1979. My best friend had a deep green 70 Charger that was loaded but it had a 318 he got when he was a junior in HS. It was a much nicer car. When he drove it to school our senior year it had a worked 392 Hemi with a rebuilt Powerglide. In a drag race I would lead most of the way but at the quarter mile marker he was 2 car lengths ahead and pulling away. I topped out about 110 and Dan said he had it up to 140 where it had more petal. He was running a 338 gear and I had a 410. My guess is he had about 100 HP on me. He also got better fuel mileage.
1969 I say, because of the sidemarker type. These 68-69 Chargers are still about the most beautiful cars from MoPar. At least in my lifetime. I do not think I have ever seen a white one. Bonus for NO vinyl top. Oops, just saw the front plate.
I think the trim strip is there, but I don't think the vinyl is. The roof profile looks like metal. That white is probably not factory. Never saw a white one. Possible they left the trim pieces to avoid having to fill the holes?
I am not one to complain but white is not a color.

ReplyDeleteMy bad again, I see trim at the base of the C-pillar, so it has a white vinyl top. Doggone.
ReplyDeleteAnd if the pic was higher resolution I could probable see the trim at the bottom of the A-Pillar. Just sayin.....
