The 'Bird looks like it's been on the faiground.

The 500 is cool although i'm not a big fan of the front end changes and the flush fitted rear window. But looks good in steelies and that colour I prefer black steelies to body colour.

Both bloody cheap tho

When l was out there in December, went to a cruise night and saw a Hemi Challenger, Plum Crazy, '71, in very good shape, this was for sale for $59,000.

I'd put up with the paint for the car at that price if I had the money. Paint can be changed. You wouldn't be put off the perfect house because the wallpaper was rubbish, would you?

or indeed....if it sells at all.

Im with Dunc love the 500.s rare and exclusive.
Am I right that the Mods were for aerodynamic reasons?

Yeh, worth a bleedin mint now

Snap on the change to bikes, we would all set off most Saturday mourning's to visit "Motor Sales" in Brum and pay another 10 bob off our
Scooters. But, on one of the visits there in the showroom on a turntable was a brand spanking new metallic blue Suzuki 250 Hustler

Direct oil injection

6-speed

and those pipes

and and and

that was it, I knew I had to have it, (I must have read the print off the sales brochure) didn't care how I was gonna pay for it

but I had it

All me mates went crazy at first but one by one they all switched

Great times back then.....

Yes

I heard origonal Charger stylin' created too much lift and they lost the steering @ 100+. The tunnelled rear window was an arodynamic failure too.
