On tonights' show crazyman Mark was shown from the inside only of a car he proposes to get the 1000 hp 426 gen III Hemi he got from MOPAR at last years' SEMA. To me it looked like a 1957 Plymouth Belvedere. Anyone else have an idea?
That be close, I did see a 1/4 vent
My bet is on Christine... 58 Fury
Yea the 1/4 vent is flat on top and a sweeping rear window. Also, they remarked about a Christine car over the years.
That psycho car deserves a crazy engine! :banana:
Sounds like a really cool car! :bigthumb:
I can't believe people watch that show still :crazytalk:

I have attempted it with mute. NOPE still cannot tolerate him. :looney: enough to try again.
Maybe I'm in the minority, but I find Mark entertaining. That, in combo with his passion and knowledge makes me tune in.
No other car mfg has a show dedicated to restorations, so I watch it and deal with the TV drama and shenanigans. Yes sometimes it's a bit much, but they feature some cool Mopars.
As for the Sema car, the 1/4 vent window you see on the show looks like it matches the Christine car and he has mentioned wanting to build one too so that's my guess.
If this show was serious about content ie. Restorations it would not last one season. First of all it is a TV show. Humor, craziness, stupidity and what ever else you want to throw in. Personally I try not to miss it. And what ever little tidbit of information I can pic up makes it good.
I think it was last week Mark did a segment on a Hemi, I have built many engines over the years but never seen inside a Hemi, you can see why they are so bad a@@. So that was very good information.
Graveyard Carz . . . love it or hate it . . . :dunno:
I like most, do not care much for all of the ridiculousness that comes along with a television show in general. Trying to compete with other shows ratings and improving upon or trying to maintain your own ratings and time slot . . . however, it is the only show that is currently all Mopar and I always seem to pick up some tidbit of information which I do like.
I have no doubt that the car will be a '58 Plymouth Fury from the movie Christine . . . his, "Run, Moochie, Run" reference while sitting in the car was a dead giveaway . . . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrO8AQ4CrKk
For the lack of nothing better to watch last night on TV, I turned to motor-trend. they showed vary little Worman! I found it to be much better with out his shenanigans. :alan2cents:
Not sure why he picked Christine, May be keeping with the Graveyard car theme. It would be awesome if the Hellephant is in a light weight 68 Cuda.
a '68 would be cool. Wheelie bars a must.
What gave me a chuckle was that he just finished the wormobile (lil dead wagon) and had a 950hp motor built for it and then he gets a 1000hp motor for free. I'll bet he wish that happened a little earlier.
I was thinking a 68 Cuda would be ideal in terms of advertisement in preparation of the Cuda return in near future. Yes, I am keeping my hopes up on this one.
Building a vehicle with almost universal appeal will expand the viewers and interest more than any ebody would.
Guarantee we get to see a new wave of "barn find" Christines.
Might even get an updated movie...
Doesn't GYC's have customers cars to build.No wonder why all his builds are a year or 2 behind.

Too busy selling the name over selling the product.
