    Default Remembering Darth Haul ...

    Since deciding to focus the search for a special interest car to a Dakota R/T, it has me going back though my the pictures of my original R/T. Thought I would start a thread to post some of these pictures. Which were probably originally post on Yahoo groups or the Delphi forum.

    First one I was both a proud but bittersweet moment. Photos' were taken at the second National meet and didn't post for nearly 2 years later after I had sold the truck after getting layed off. Photos were also taken by Mopar Muscle at the first National meet in Auburn Hills they were taken in the parking garage of the Chrysler Tech Center and if the exposure had turned out it would have looked awesome.

    Details of the article are mostly correct. Finer things not sure where they came from. Anyway. Sherman set the controls of the way back machine to 2004.

    It's hard to remember but I probably saw your truck at the Woodward Dream Cruise years ago.

    Made Woodward a few times with it. Whole Michigan group gathered at a Paint Store on the Loop in Pontiac. Probably 15 or more R/T's

    More remembrance. These are from the first addition of the Mopar Street Truck book. Looks like they part number now as an AB. Not sure if Darth made the cut still but was featured on two chapter title pages. These were shot at a car show and swap meet at the Mopar Centerline warehouse. Jim Bur, Rick Adams and Myself scored some awesome prototype 5.9 R/T puffy badges that never made it production.

    Thanks didn't see that one. Due to rust, I don't really look locally. Require a lot of work to get it where I would want it and limited on my time to spend doing it.
