Great knowledgeable respected standup guy...

Hey is the rumor the character in Joe Dirt
was "loosely" based on Ron Jenkins ?
Not literally, not the scalp deal or abandoned at the
Grand Canyon of course, that's BS, just the obsession with
Mopars & the long hair etc.

just curious, I heard that

Watching now!

 

[Riverdawg]

It should be recording. Have to watch it later. Been looking forward to this one.

Didn't Gas Monkey already do this, just to a Challenger?

Yes, Gas Monkey cut up a really nice 340 4spd Challenger to do it though, what a waste. Mopar didn't have a plug and play kit for the engine conversion yet. At least Mark is using a base 318 Barracuda and not an original Cuda. Will be a nice project when done.

My point is Worman was playing this up like it was something new. He was saying this will be the most talked-about car in their history, and I was just shaking my head. There are a lot of old cars driving around with new Hemis in them.

I suspect this is just another of Worman's something for nothing deal. He's always hyping the crap out of something, from energy drinks to car lifts, to light bulbs to get free stuff, and I suspect that's what he's now doing with Mopar Performance.

Yep & IIRC the Diablo tuning guys did the ECM electronics

Never looked much into magnum force, looks like they have some nice products. Do we get a member discount through the forum?

 

[Riverdawg]

Finally getting a few minutes to watch the recording. Ron Jenkins was on the show "Wrecks to Riches" helping Barry's Speed Shop with a Satellite years ago and I believe a Dart too.
