E bodies wanted for new book. UK based author.

Post by MattH »

Peter Grist, he of the old Chrysler Corporation Club that closed a few years ago continues to write books about Mopars, and has turned to us for help with the latest project. This is a nice chance to get some UK based Mopars into worldwide print for evermore. Please help Peter if you can.

I am working on my next book which is about Mopar pony cars. I am looking to photograph some clean original Challengers and Barracudas (70-74), ideally located down south. I haven't got the finances to pay the owners but they would of course get a copy of the book with their car in it. Do you know of anyone that would be interested? I will be going to the Nats so could get some shots there.

Also, is there a 70-74 expert in the club that I could check details with, who might be willing to check my work for accuracy? Thanks for your help, cheers, Pete

Please contact Pete on petergrist@neon.wanadoo.co.uk or landline 02380 445936

Dave Robson has to be close to top of list for counter - checking facts I would have thought.

There are people on my message board that know (and remember) much more about these cars than me. So I have sent him an email pointing him there.

I suggested Roydons 73 would fit the bill.
