How about a 1960 Dodge Matador?
Never saw one. Have to love the fin design on this!

Cool find; I always appreciated those Maserati Inspired convertibles, thought they were cool (they were high end expensive at the time)! :stayinlane:

A rarity; a 1960 Plymouth Fury Wagon HARDTOP. Can't be many that were built?

Found a cool website highlighting Ron Osborne's self described "Rarest of the Rare" Mopar Collection

I've never seen a Fury hardtop wagon. Lots of Chryslers and quite a few Dodges though.

In 1992 and 1993 Dodge built a grand total of 462 Daytona Iroc R/T's. At over 100 HP per liter this was the highest HP per CI ever achieved by Chrysler. At the time despite only being 2.2 liters, the Iroc R/T's  performance numbers equalled or surpassed  those of the Buick GN and 5.0 Mustangs. This car and the Viper were the last Mopar's that Carroll Shelby was involved with.

Would you believe I was driving behind one 2 days ago?

I didn't know what I was looking at. I knew it was a Chrysler from that era, but it didn't look like a LeBaron. It was a convertible with the top up. I was actually was tempted to follow the car until they stopped, but it was a woman driving it, and I don't need any stalking charges brought up against me.   :D

:wrenching: I know it's not a car but it's part of Mopar history that might be forgotten.

Don't forget as well the Ball Stud Hemi.
