Anyone from the Canfield, OH area remember the 'Bird on the left? The second owner was Cas Rock. He owned the Sky Jet (?) restuarant and has quite a collection of cars (mostly brand x). He had owned it from the early/mid 70s until my brother bought it in '85. What we do know is that the original owners beat the snot out of it, ending up crashing it very hard requiring it to basically have the front clip replaced. The odd thing that the replacement nose has is a Daytona hood sealing strip attached to the nosecone. Any early info would be great to get as the guy who did the crushed velvet inserts in the seats was nice enough to throw out that tattered piece of paper in the seat springs
The car on the right is my Dads' 'bird

It may just be my computer but the last picture that you posted as attached didn't load. It comes up as like the top 15% of a picture and then that is it.
On the hunt for my dad's old cars. They include 5 Daytona's, 2 superbirds, and 2 500's. Very interested in finding the Red on Red Daytona, and Q5 Charger 500, and have found both cars.

Platinum, way cool pics from the Chrysler Proving Grounds in Chelsea. Was that the 1985 Mopar Nationals? Oh yeah, 69SE's right, the top part of the last pic was all that loaded.
Danny, send away, I'll be gone most of the day but as soon as I get back, I'll start posting em. Include a sentence or two about each car so I can include that as well.

I believe this one went to the dogs! It looks like in my original that there is a dog on the front seat.

That car was built by a guy named Jeff Johnston (not Jeff Johnson) of southern Michigan. He traded it to a Dodge dealership in northern Michigan for a brand new Dodge Dakota pickup sometime in 1992. It was purchased from the Dodge dealership by Mark Marougi and I towed it home from up north for Mark. Mark kept it a couple years and sold it to Bob and Sharon Malcom who still own it to this day.

OK, here we go with some more pictures from the archives of 69SESunroof. This first picture is of a '69 Charger R/T that was owned by 69SESunroof's (Danny) dad. This car was sold in 1986 to pay for the airline tickets to move their family to Thailand. It's a 440 automatic console shift car with stripe delete.

This next picture is from 1985. It's an orange Superbird owned by Mike Atkins of Tennessee. Mike still owns this Bird to this day.

This one is of a B5 Blue Superbird going down the track at Milan Dragway at what I believe is the 1985 Mopar Nationals.

Here's another one from Milan Dragway and the 1985 Mopar Nationals. Nice looking black Daytona with Cragars. Where is this car today?
