Buddy Sent Me some Old Car Pictures

[Jeff Higgins]

I can't believe he found these. My '69 Super Bee, his '67 R/T, and another buddy's '68 Road Runner. This was about 1978 or '79. I had owned the Road Runner, and would eventually own the R/T.

How cool is that? Once reaching a certain age, memories become more important. I have a similar photo, a bit fuzzy because it was taken with an old Kodak Instamatic camera with a not the best lens. A now deceased buddy & I and my old '66 GTO...

We can't be the only ones here with USA muscle being our automotive roots..

Memories...... There is a special place in my heart for the Chargers and Road Runners of that era. Even the tuners today would likely giggle if they rode in one for a pass. Just a different sort of automotive animal. I remember how the dashboards would rise.

Hard to pick a favorite in that lineup. Roadrunners are cool because they're Roadrunners. The shape of the Super Bee - especially the shape of the rear flanks - is just gorgeous, and the R/T is stealth - Not for everyone, but a select few understand.

Where did the photos go? They were there this morning.

Freaky, refreshed the page and they are back

Mopar or no car!

Very nice, Jeff....thanks for sharing!

Many of us were lucky enough to have been around in that era.

Another aspect of the muscle car era that I like was the advertising.

Not just for muscle cars. All of them including Volkswagens, trucks/vans, motorcycles, and sports cars.

Also, I remember how fast the news traveled while I was in high school here in Florida in the early 70's when the decision was made for the Highway Patrol to start driving those 440's.....fastest cars on the road!

First ad Baz posted...Barbie Benton? If not, a lookalike.

I learned to drive in my dad's '66 Coronet 2-door coupe with the 383. That car is still in my mom's garage...

Joan Parker, Dodge Fever girl, smoking hot, but no Barbi Benton

I could have had Barbi as a babysitter as a lad. Wegot the anesthesiologist's daughter instead of the gynecologists's, too bad.
