The Mopar Hall of Fame event was in the evening at the Camp Hill Radisson. I thought that it might be pretty cool but I had no idea how cool! Totally mind blowing! This years inductees were the following;
The Golden Commandos Club Buddy Baker Roger Lindamood Bud Faubel Arlen Vanke Don Garlits Bill "Maverick" Golden William M. Brownlie (father of the first three generations of Chargers and designer of many top of the line models) Christine - movie car And a special Lifetime Achievement Award wet to Tom Hoover
Some of the speeches were really mind blowing and it seems that even if these people are almost like Gods to the average Mopar enthusiast they are really humble people who really appreciate being honored in this way. Truly one of the best evenings of my life. There is a dvd available from this event and I would urge anyone interested in Chrysler history to buy it.
Arnie Cunningham seemed to be in a hurry to the event...yes, that is one of the real movie cars.
Bud Faubel is a true showman;
Tom Hoover was recovering from some health issues, glad he is doing better. I wish everything he has seen and done at Chrysler could come out as a book...
