The car that was posted as the original Motec car and the white/rainbow car are actually the same car. That is the second car.

This is the first car.

I have a picture with John teddar when I was in High school at Milan way back in the day at the Highschool nationals. My dad and him new each other very well back then. then chrysler went and closed there welding school (weld-tec) and the automotive traing center (Mo-tec) I might add that car hauled A$$. Who owns it now??? thats a really big part of history for the technical side of things chrysler used to do.


Thank you

Im not sure if this is a clone or the original.
But it makes an annual appearance at the York 30 Nostalgic Nationals at Beaver Springs Dragway.

Several times in the 1980's Tedder came to the Vocational Center where I work recuiting students for MoTech. He brought a Hemi Cuda with him for show and tell and demonstrations (burnouts). I believe it was the car pictured in Defbob's post. So is that the original?
