that is debatable and will likely never be resolved. However,<br />

when it comes to wild graphics and colors most<br />

folks agree that Chrysler vehicles win that battle hands<br />

a totally unrestored ’69 Barracuda that was literally<br />

dragged out of the woods to a well-preserved Survivor<br />

and several beautifully restored examples. We are<br />

also pleased to have at least one of each body style (A,<br />

B & E) on display this weekend.<br />

This gathering was made possible by the eff orts of<br />

Julie Moore and Dave Goodwin of the Mod Top Registry.<br />
