No it's The Barracuda Szabo had after the 'Cudas, might not have owned it at that point mind...

That silver Dart is back with Bish now.

And I think that's me in the leather jacket walking past the T/A in the first picture.

The Bronze 70 GTX is Jim Chandler's old car, now owned by my buddy Alan Letts.

I think you're right Blue. The motor was residing in a Barracuda, still in primer I think. Mike will remember.

Dave, I've got a soft spot for that Dart. Was the first seriously quick car I went in, when Mike owned it. Remember scaring the b'jesus out my mate Nige, when me and Mike swapped cars at about 2am on the way back from a club in Kingston. Worth it just to hear him scream!

The other memory is me doing my first run-wot-ya-brung, up against Mike, and him blowing the gearbox to shreds halfway down the strip. He still beat me by 3 seconds, running a 14. With seven of us in two cars, it meant everyone piling in mine for the journey home. Everyone had a seat though. Would've been ok if the four in the back hadn't tried to moon out the back window at the same time. Aussie Chargers get quite narrow above the body line. Nobbers.
