There's nothing greater than cruisin' around in a big ole' Chrysler.....and a convertable 300 would be at the very top.

I drove New Yorkers for years and years....I still miss them. They make nothing like it today.

She used to run 8.3's in the 1/8

Is just a stock stroke 440 with a set of ported 906's and a mopar .509 hyd cam.

Won street champion in 95 also won mopar nats burn out contest in 95. I drove it from Fort Wayne to Indy for the 95 nats with 6 of us in it and had tons of fun.

Beat about every fox body in town back in the early-mid 90's

Plans.........not sure yet but it will be way cool when I'm done with it. Thinking BB 572 blown?
Also paint her up plum crazy or something?

Love those C barges.

Last race at RT 66 there was a guy in Pro with a '66 300 with plates on it running 11:70's.

Used to see an older gentleman down at 41 with a '70 Newport that ran 12:0's on the hose.

I don't think this one had a cowl hood, but the paint scheme was similar. I'm sure the wheels were different too.
