someone just emailed me this little memorabilia.

hi guys....i rarely come out of my cave these days BUT this was fwd to me by a good friend (who is usually busy trying to convince bridge jumpers to use the gw bridge and not his). i have been in the memorabilia game for all eternity and its my opinion that the box, instructions. etc are all 100% real EXCEPT the inserts appear to me to be 100% bogus. my opinion is that someone took the ORIGINAL dodge boys inserts out and replaced them with that junk thats pictured in this thread. i dare any of you to prove me wrong. actually i hope you can.

why would you think those are junk knockoffs?
why would someone go to the trouble of taking out the ride with the dodge boys which are pretty rare also and put if fakes?

i do not know the circumstances of how your friend acquired them but if he purchased the discs then the answer is obvious. there has been foul play with discs going on for years. theres a guy in california who sells "real" ones every now and then that are bogus. putting fake parts in real boxes has been a mopar reality for a long long time. again i hope someone proves me wrong but with all my experience i am confident i would have heard of these or seen these in dealer pics, etc. plus i promise you if they existed i would have known about them and probaly found them. again, i hope im wrong.....

I do not know for sure one way or the other, but......

it seems odd that the discs appear to be perfectly white while the papers with them have marks & stains?

steve, hes not my friend, its someone who emailed me saying they googled one of my posts about dodge promo discs and said he thought i would think this is pretty cool, thats all.
its seems kind of odd, seeing original promo disc hardware and a bogus set of discs.

Chris,

The font used on those discs look too modern for 1969. They also look way too clean compared to the rest of the package and hardware.

BTW, I'll see you at Carlisle.

Hopefully the seller allows for what he'll term an honest mistake....and honestly return some funds.

Since the official order form only shows "Dodge Boys" wheel disc display, quantity and amount, one would think there would also be a column for "Put a Dodge in your garage" disc. How else would you order them if there is no box to check for them.

pretty sure the grease cap on the 4" BP drums uses a smaller cap than the rest of the fleet .

I think the discs look a bit too good to be originals. All the other stuff looks legit to me though, but I'm certianly no disc expert. I'd ask the guy that went them what the story is.
Very interesting. How come no one ever send me any cool Mopar stuff

I was thinking this too. However, reading the inserts that were posted with the contents of the box says that they were constructed out of aluminum. The same paperwork shows a different disk though.
