Am I right that the Mods were for aerodynamic reasons?
The Chargers were getting creamed by Ford with the Torinos and Mercury with the Cyclones, so they came out with the 500, which got creamed by Ford with the Talledega and Mercury with the Cyclone Spoiler 2.
We are living in a strange world when something like that Superbird for £45K is considered a bargain. To me it is £30k overpriced, and the 500 £15k overpriced.
The whole 'hobby' has got ridiculous.

Do you ever drive through Bolton or Rivington?
