25th Annual Mopar w/ Big Daddy 2012 @ Don Garlits Museum of Drag Racing

Last November I took a trip to Marion Oaks, Florida which is north of me, and I attended the 25th Annual Mopar Convention at the Don Garlitz Museum of Drag Racing, which ran on November 3 and 4, 2012:

I was ready to post my own pictures here, and I'm still sorting them out two months later, but somebody else posted their own link:

Rest assured, I saw a lot of the same cars and trucks in this link, but I have other pictures of the ones here, and plenty that this person doesn't have.

To be honest, the first antique car at the show wasn't even a Mopar. It was a late-1950's GMC Suburban, but I'll get to that later. Right now, I'm going to show you a 1970 Dodge Coronet Super Bee with amber high-beam headlights.
More pics to come.

I could add more close-up shots of that '70 Super Bee, or I could show you that GMC Suburban.
I think I'll do the Suburban.
And I've got others to add.

This stupid library computer isn't letting me shrink my pictures. Actually it is, but it's not giving me access to the shrunken version, so I'm going to postpone the relevant pic to the quote I posted.
This is completely out of order. I've got a pair of 1964 Dodge light-duty trucks coming up next. One is a D-100 Custom pickup, and the other is a Town Panel.

Here's one of the seven pics I took of that 1964 D-100 Custom Pickup. Yes, the "100" logo was turned upside down.

With all the images I've taken, I'm going to have to make whole threads for single cars.
