In 1971 the Dodge Challenger was the pace car at the Indy 500. The pace car crashed into a grandstand. This was one of the cars from the 1971 Indy 500

although they were only 6 cylinders they could pull a house off its foundation ! the granny gear was amazing and being 4x4 when you were behind the wheel you felt like you could conquer any landscape ahead of you ! i would love to own one.

Glad everyone enjoyed the pictures. I have more. My favorite pre-war car is the Cord 812. Also went to the Studebaker Museum. My Grandfather always drove a Studebaker until they went out of business. Since he was a farmer he also had a pickup. His choice was a 1948 International KB5. He owned it for 20 years. I really liked that truck. I will post some more photos in a day or two.

Thank you very much for sharing your pictures. I personally would love to see any other pictures you took. I love damn near every car.

Solly I am so with you on the early Dodge's. I love them too.

I saw that Futureliner auctioned off at Barrett Jackson, Really cool. It opens on the side to display Futurama cars
