1970 Dodge Charger
1970 DODGE CHARGER 500 ON PICTURE DAY
This car was shown at the Good Guys Car Show in Pleasanton CA in March 2014. The owner opened the hood part way to show the engine off. Unfortunately, in my rounds of picture-taking, when I got to this beauty, the owner was nowhere in sight, and I DO NOT touch other peoples’ cars without their permission. So, this is what we’ve got. (Maybe I should say “No muscle cars were injured in the making of this site!”

That’s a 440 Magnum peaking out from under the hood. Again, unfortunately, the owner of this car was nowhere in site at the recent Good Guys Car Show in Pleasanton CA. So, with the hood only half-opened, both the exterior photos and the engine shots were compromised. Maybe next time.
