Title: Spring Fling 2018 E-body pics
Post by: nsmall on April 15, 2018, 02:38:46 PM
I snagged a couple of e-body pics today.  These were the only e-bodies I saw.

I convinced Mike to stand by his car.  I forget his name here.

Really just two ebody sections.  The pink section and then everyone else.

I really liked the RT below.

There was a T/A and AAR section.  I took an extra picture of the yellow one as I thought for some reason Brad might like that one.

And this black Cuda was out chilling like a stranger to the rest of the ebody line

It was cool meeting Mike.  A real kind, humble man!

"nsmall" great photo coverage! I saw them all also, fantastic show, loved it. I left after I talked to you. Loved the swap, loved the cars. Mopars in May will be a real treat also, next month here in Riverside. I was pretty much wiped out by the end of the day, but it was great.   Thanks,   Al

Great successful show with over 500 show cars, over 200 swappers, 50+ cars on Malibu Cruise, 50+ cars at Saturday Night Cruise In.

Weather was mid 70's partly cloudy on Sunday, mid 80's on Saturday, and high 70's on Friday.

Part of the Sunday Show Fileld

E-body parts...

Those are original E-60's and G-60's. They sold Saturday and Sunday.

Nice indeed! :twothumbsup:

Funny thing with FM3 is that I use to HATE it back in the day ... thought it looked like Pepto Bismol  :barf:

Now it's one of my top four favorite Mopar colors  :drooling:

Go figure?  :notsure:

Just got back from the Spring Fling. Had a great time. I ran into people I hadn't seen in 30 years. It was good running into nsmall. You took some great pics. We were only there for one day but was worth it. Had one of the best days at a show in a long time. It was cool being in the "Pink" display. It was the first outing for the other pink T/A in the display. Only been finished about a week or two. He won a well deserved first place in the stock class. I was able to take second place with mine. Mopar ally car show next. Hope to see some of you there.

Mike

Yes, participants have a great time and enjoy coming back year after year.

But don't forget those pictures are just from Sunday. Saturday 50% different cars as a whole than Sunday.

None of the 3 pink E-bodies under the tent have ever been to a Spring or Fall Fling. Nor the Playmate AMX. Same for the green AAR and brown T/A and the custom purple 70 Cuda w/cragers.

The red/red/red 440-6 4-speed has never been to a Fling either. That's a pretty fresh resto. Don't know how many public events it's been too. More on that exceptionally restored cars later. It was 1st place E-body stock.

So about 25% of the E-bodies on Sunday are new to a Spring or Fall Fling.

I didn't get many pics of the Saturday show field.

Correct.

I'm not sure he bought it directly, but that's were it came from.

Saturday E-body pics

@autoxcuda (https://forum.e-bodies.org/mlist/autoxcuda_120) Not sure if its showing up, but that orange challenger for sale for 31k, I know it had a big block, I thought that was a real nice clean car for 31k, but I dont know challenger prices and maybe I am just a sucker.  It was still for sale on Sunday afternoon when I left. 

Autoxcuda, do you have any other pics of that car and/or the contact info on that one?  Maybe someone might be interested in it.  The interior looked good.  Looked like a real nice driver.

Just opened this again, the orange challenger didnt show up.  Its on page 2 of this thread.
