I am not one to care about awards at car shows. I have plenty of dust collectors. I am all about the road trips and cruising. My collector car is for driving, not for showing. I was pleasantly surprised to get a 2nd place award in the Stock GTX class at the Carlisle Chrysler Show. So imagine...

Have to share a proud and humbling dad moment from Memorial Day. My son JT is a rising senior at West Point. Less than a year from now, he will be heading off into the Army. On Monday, he had the opportunity to lay a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier on behalf of the organization I...

Recently handed down my Durango GT to my son who will finally be able to take a car to college this spring. As a result, I have been looking for a new daily driver. This weekend, I went ahead and bought a 2023 Charger RT. Maybe not the most practical choice for a daily driver, but I wanted...

Wondering if there is a place that you can buy reproduction copies of the broadcast sheet, or any other documentation, for a classic car you own just based off of providing the VIN or fender tag? I wasn't able to get the previous owner of my car to find any of that paperwork, and I am not...

I am considering selling my 69 GTX. I didn't list it in the For Sale forum because I have not fully committed to the possibility yet. Unfortunately, home and life circumstances are starting to outweigh the luxury of having the car. I also don't have to let the car go, but it might be in my best...

I have been checking out a four door Satellite a few minutes from my house that a gentleman has just sitting in his back yard. It appears to be a 68 or 69 (just based on observation of body lines from the road). Anyone have any experience restoring or modding out a four door one of these cars...

Well the "X" and I made it home after a pretty outstanding Hot Rod Power Tour this week. The weather could not really have been more perfect for summer in the south. The only particularly tough day was the fourth day going into zMax Dragway in Charlotte. Lots of cars got punished by the heat and...

Went to one of the largest car shows in our region on Sunday - the "Coming Out" (not that type) Car Show hosted by the Southern Knights Car Club in Southern Maryland. There were somewhere in the neighborhood of 600-700 cars in the show. One of the rare occasions when I saw more than just a...

For Christmas this year, my wife and I got a fully remodeled master bathroom. The real question is - Why? On a rainy December Saturday night there was a convergence of stupidity, bad luck and mechanical failure that led me to drive my truck right through the side of my house (specifically our...

Took the GTX out on Saturday for a local county harvest festival. The harvest festival closes down the main street in the county seat and has vendors, bands and a big car show. Many of the show cars are lined up on the main street. It was an absolutely perfect day for the festival. The...

My son is a rising sophomore cadet at West Point. Last week, he graduated from Army Air Assault school - his first real deal Army school. My wife and I had the chance to go up and watch him and his classmates complete the Air Assault phase of the school, then complete the 12 mile road march on...

Took my GTX out for a car show for the first time this weekend. Run by the local region of the AACA in Fredericksburg, VA. Wanted to share some of the photos that I took during the show. The Super Bird parked next to me belongs to a good friend. It was a nut and bolt restoration from several...

Got my 69 GTX out of the shop today after having a paint correction and ceramic coat done. Everyone recommended this, particularly for a black car. It was definitely money well spent.

My 69 GTX code include J9A. I understand what the J and the 9 represent. Can anyone confirm whether the A means the car was built to ship to Canada? I saw on a list of production numbers for the 69 Hemi GTX that J9A showed 11 cars that were shipped to Canada. Would appreciate any insight. Thanks.

I have tried getting a good understanding of what little information is contained on the fender tag for my 69 GTX, but I have struggled along. The VIN number is easy to get that basic information, but that is pretty much as far as I have been able to get. Would appreciate some insight or point...

After going back and forth with the people for a month, I finally pulled the trigger on this 69 GTX. Some of you may have seen it for sale out of a dealer in Ohio. I was able to get them to come down on the list price some, which made it a little easier to swallow. The build on this car is a few...

I have been eyeing this car, along with the 69 Road Runner mentioned in a previous thread. I am having a third party inspection done on this car and going to look at it myself. But wondering if anyone on here has seen this car up close and has any thoughts/opinions? It appears to be a legit A12...

So I traveled yesterday to see and close the deal on the 69 Road Runner I have been eyeing to buy for awhile now. It was an experience that proved I should not have gotten my hopes up. Once I actually got to inspect it closely, it was quite a let down to discover all the "warts" on the car. You...

Curious how the jack assembly and spare tire are meant to be displayed in the trunk of this 69 Road Runner? It was clear to me with my 69 Dart exactly how everything was supposed to be stored in the trunk, but I am not as clear on that with the Road Runner. Would appreciate a few pictures if...

Curious if any of you guys are Hot Rod Power Tour people? My father, son and daughter and I did it back in 2019 as Long Haulers, but we missed the return last year. Looks like it is headed down south this year in June. Seriously considering my daughter and I making the trip in the Road Runner...
