Who here remembers all these NEHOA people?

Starting around 1987-88, Chandler bought up all the Hemi convertibles that he could find & I'd say that he was responsible for initiating the desirability of Hemi cars.

Desirability amongst the spoiled kids with too much money?? I would think you guys had established they were desirable by starting the Hemi club

I had me some hair in those days. This was my GLH in those days.
Now? Still got some hair and about 50 pounds more (thanks to thyroid cancer/removal).

Sweet 240. I've got an old one in my backyard.

240? That's a Dodge Omni GLH Turbo 1985.

Thanks y'all. Just to be clear, you're saying some of the members bought cars from him - or he from them?

Otis was buying. Mark thanks for the other cars.

My bad looked like the front end of a different car.

Omnis sure "borrowed" from several other cars (like the Rabbit) for sure.

Did you know Dave Quattromani?

Don't think so but i know the name.
Back then if I was working 4 days on 4 off, being low man on totumpole I work many holiday weekends. If schedule worked out might get one meet a year.

He owned a '70 Challenger T/A, a seriously nice one. Came from your neck of the woods.
Great guy. As we get old photos scanned and put on the cloud, you'll see it often on photos of meets.

Ok, back to the original question:
Consensus of those who would know (and RC, too!) is that this was taken in Bensalem, PA at the NeHOA meet,
9/2 thru 9/5 1983.
Almost 42 years ago, I looked like that fella kneeling at the far right bottom - in flip flops.
Add 50 pounds as a result of thyroid cancer/removal (plus the other dozen times shiyat tried to kill me) and you got
me today. Well, maybe a bit less hair...

Did you know Dave Quattromani?

Dave is still around and he still has his T/A Challenger. He lives in RI.

I'd like to know how many current and former NeHOA members we have here on FBBO?

 

[moparedtn]

Here is the link where my friend Tom K and myself (I move slower, don't have a fancy auto-feed scanner) are posting
up groups of pics we have by NeHOA meet. Please have a look and if you can identify either the location or the date,
we'd really appreciate it!

Obviously I wouldn't know any of the people, or even the cars, but THANK YOU for sharing these; I enjoyed looking at them!

More pics are posted on both Toms' and my own folders at that link now.
Many more to come and we've already had one group of pics identified as coming from the Butler, PA
meet in 1987. Progress!
Anyone else have a clue? Some of these groups of pics we're posting almost certainly are NOT NeHOA
meets, but others like the old Nats or even Englishtown events.
