Legendary Mopars | The Ultimate Compilation

[@22cudaman]

Nice to see my 71 Cuda in this video. That was a Great Day. Thanks Dennis

[@rickdee67]

Mopar is king of the hill! Other brands made cool, fast muscle but nothing as iconic as the Hemi, pistol grip or that WING! And the colors!

[@MrTurboRotary]

OMG! This was an awesome dream car show. Thank you Dennis! 👍👍👍

Great tribute to Virgil Exner, thanks for all the hard work done by you and your crew

[@michaelmartinez1345]

What a great episode!!! The coolest cars on the planet!!! That '58 Chrysler 300 D was just beautiful !!! The Turbine car was amazing!!! It was such a treat to hear from and about, So many of these people.. Like Don Garlits, Tom Hoover, Bill Wertman, Norm Krause, Virgil Exner, Jay Leno, and several of the MOPAR enthusiasts!!!! Great show!!! Keep them going Dennis !!!!

[@elcapo8596]

First dude cool as hell man talk with such confidence, an absolute legend with a legendary mopar

[@Mark-m9z4q]

Your videos are excellent. Thank you very much. During the 1960s my uncle worked for Chrysler in Detroit. Years later my older brother told me that when he once visited my uncle that he had a turbine car at his house for evaluation purposes. God Bless.

[@V8AmericanMuscleCar]

I have watched some of these videos many times before and now they are no less interesting. Thanks for sharing Dennis! 🙋🏻‍♂️

[@manuelmaldonadojr.306]

Awesome collection of content Dennis and your team. As a Mopar Fan I wish I had the opportunity to see and be able to drive some of these iconic Mopars!

[@luisponce5047]

This is a very good compilation and a very good show, I'm a mopar guy and I really enjoy this episode. Thanks for your show Dannis 👍👍

[@SuspenseESCAPEremastered]

I was fortunate enough that my brother took me to NASCAR races in '69 and '70 - I got to see the good old boys and the Ford/Mercury vs Dodge/Plymouth wars! - the fact is that Dodge/ Plymouth did win a few more races than Ford/ Mercury during that time, but they didn't "dominate." The wings only had the advantage on the super speedways.

[@davidthayer6969]

the videos are out there......you can watch them, the winged cars had NOTHING for Cales Mercury. There are TWO reasons why the winged cars won any races in 1970.......#1 Ford pulled all NASCAR funding after Daytona and the MOST important reason was the Mopars got to run the new 4500 Holley in 1970.

[@prepperjonpnw6482]

I remember when I was a kid my mum drove a 1964 dodge and the transmission was a push button thing on the dash to the left of the steering column. You had to move the “Park” lever down and be in neutral to start the car lol then you lifted the lever up and pushed the “Drive” button to get going lol. Loved that car as a kid and I remember using it for dates when I was a teenager lol Cheers

[@plymouthdie-castreplicas]

Amazing! I proudly add this video to my playlist. Great job and thumbs up!

[@prepperjonpnw6482]

Hey There - I just subscribed to your channel. It looks like you have quite a bit of content that I will enjoy. May I ask where you are located? Based on what I saw on your channel I’m guessing eastern europe. Cheers

[@plymouthdie-castreplicas]

@@prepperjonpnw6482 My pleasure. I'm glad you like my channel. The Czech Republic, Central Europe:-) Thanks so much for subscribing my channel. Appreciate it!

[@Duececoupe]

That moustache is as legendary as those Mopar cars! Love the this and your other videos Dennis.... One of my best friends back in the old country (Sweden) owns a '57 Chrysler 300, one of 18, if I remember correctly, in brown.... man, does it move! 😳😲😎

[@LITTLE1994]

Those are indeed some of the greatest muscle cars in existence, especially the Daytona and Superbird.

[@zohaib876]

God that Turbine is soo out of this world & beautiful. Also the Sublime Green Challenger is awesome! Mopar or...well, y'know the rest. Thanks Dennis :-), God bless you. You always post such amazing content. I love your channel brother

[@MyClassicCarTV]

Thanks man!

[@prepperjonpnw6482]

You should watch the compilation show he did for Chevy’s. I just finished watching it and it was fantastic! I will definitely be watching it again! lol I shared it with my son and a couple of my friends that are into cars and of course I shared it with my neighbour who is into hot rods and street rods. He’s really into the paint jobs and detailing with pinstripes and ghost flames. He does amazing work all free hand and how he can do a mirror image is like magic! He helps me keep my vehicles looking good because I seem to accumulate scratches with no effort on my part at all lol

[@Friedbrain11]

Nascar needs to change its name to Nacar. It is no longer a stock car racing association and hasn't been for a long time. One of a few reasons I quit watching it a long time ago. I always wanted a Plymouth Superbird. Between the Challenger and the Cuda, I vote Challenger. That '64 Belvedere is gorgeous.

[@457rick]

They don't make cars capable of 500 miles of wide open racing anymore, let's face it. It's not the fault of nascar

A car that needs mentioning is the Formula S Barracuda. I had a Turquoise 1967, 383 with 335 h.p. It had Sure Grip rear, and non-power front disc brakes. Just a great car of it's day, with performance on par with some of the big boys. Sadly it was destroyed by a van who T-boned me, pulling out from a re-hab facility. T.S. RACING

[@bradcarroll3719]

I love all of your videos, the longer the better in my opinion. Thnk you!

[@timcoe536]

Dave, I was one of the kids that used to stop by and dream over your Hemi cars! Good to see you!

[@AverageMichaelJordans]

I don't see a lot of people talk about it, but I love the "old" video quality look paired with 60 fps and high quality audio a lot of the older recorded films/episodes/videos had.

[@prepperjonpnw6482]

You’re not alone my friend lol. That’s part of the reason I love to watch these compilation episodes. Also, as we all get older there seems to be fewer and fewer of these shows with the fantastic cars of the 50’s, 60’s, and early 70’s. My son is only in his early 30’s and his friends had no idea that any of these cars even existed until I started bringing them to events like you see in this video. I have successfully created almost a dozen “youngsters” into HEMI-Heads lol Now all they talk about is which car are they going to restore! Lol Long live Mopar!! Lol Cheers

[@THRASHMETALFUNRIFFS]

Wow!! this was just like kicking back watching the coolest movie ever!

[@frankiedosty9330]

1968 Dodge charger R/T 440 Magnum. My Dad purchased one when I was kid. I still love this car to this very day. In Elementary school my nick name was Dodge charger.

[@doubledrats235]

My ‘67 Fury III 2-door with the 383 came with full size wheel covers that were difficult to put on even with a rubber hammer. I replaced them with the same red line dog dish hubcaps on that Charger Daytona. Got them from a local junkyard for $5 each in 1980. Years later and that car is long gone but I wish I saved those hubcaps.

[@JohnSmith-vo9ll]

What a legend is Don. I love this man.

[@manuelmaldonadojr.306]

Dennis and all the team at My Classic car. I absolutely love your shows. I am a fan of all types of cars. But being the Mopar fanatic, that I am, this is hands down my absolute favorite episode of all of your episodes. Thank you for putting together this awesome video! Keep up the great work and I hope to one day join you at one of your hosted shows. Hopefully at the Don Garlitts museum. Since its right down the road from me. Hint I'm building a what if dodge made a winged warrior out of a car that packed a sting! You all take care, I look forward to more content! I will most definitely be sharing this video with everyone I know!

[@wrongwayray1976]

Great video, thank you for uploading all this to one long episode.

[@Hot80s]

Mopars are great. I wish they didn't cost so much now. A 383/440 Road or Bee in the mid-80s cost half of what you'd pay for a equivalent chevelle ss not only making it a great car but a good deal too. Man times have changed and all those gm guys that jumped ship just to be cool.

[@prepperjonpnw6482]

I agree with you about the cost of vehicles now. In 2015 I bought a RAM 1500 that cost more than my parents first house lol. A lot of the cars now literally cost 10-15 times more than they did in the late 60’s. You can very easily find a new truck for $60k-$80k! That’s insane! Lol Cheers

[@easygoing2479]

Love the Daytona part, I had a Superbird, but that part at 27:16 was the real highlight... who doesn't love a '64 Hemi car, even if it's a replicar? I had a 4-dr Belvidere, 318 Poly Torqueflite push-button (no reverse valve body!), white and red just like this car shown . I'd give your right arm to own it again.

[@prepperjonpnw6482]

Lol you’d give HIS right arm! Lol I seriously laughed hard when I read that! Lol Cheers

[@jimmyhuesandthehouserocker1069]

From 1975 until 2002, I owned a 1971 Dodge Demon 340 with factory ralley wheels, pistol grip 4 speed and posi rear end. In 1984, I did an engine rebuild and restored the rest of the car with new paint. As a hobbyist, I did all my own work. Nobody else does that, money is no object to them and they always hire everything out. I kept the car factory stock, original size F70 tires, no engine mods except Chrysler electronic ignition. I sold the Demon because my new wife had no feelings or understanding of old cars, but I have serious regrets today

[@jamieminshull9269]

In1985 I was 18.ibought a70 impala custom one owner from the original lot it was ordered from.light metallic green,factory tinted green glass,corvette rally wheels,mint green interior,even had factory eight track under dash.350cu.inch 3spd auto..what a beautiful car.ended up parking my 75 cutlass s 350 bibblock 4brl.very fast.

[@matrox]

37:00 Most people don't realize this but the Challenger had a longer wheel base than the Barracuda. The Super Bee's had longer Wheel bases than the Road Runners. Most think they are the same car except for badging and trims....WRONG.

[@paw45]

I love those chrysler wheels, My black on black 1974 Charger SE had those wheels. In 1979 at age 16 it was my first car. I paid cash for it from money I had saved from age 10 cutting laws and other jobs as I became a teen. I was always hustling up jobs as a kid. I paid my own gas, insurance everything, mom and pops had a tight budget. They did the best they could.

The Chevy corvettes left room for the air to go over the windshield instead of hitting the fire wall and going down underneath the fire wall. Seconds drop off in the weirdest ways. Duel points helped and learning how to set them up to get them to matching the timing. Especially running a full cam with pop up pistons. Big Daddy Don knew all the tricks. With cheater tread tires running cold with no burn outs was another trick he had me do. He said the sticky track would work for me. The man was always right. I never questioned his words. I bought a 1970 Cuda 442 manual four speed. Off of a Major for three thousand dollars. Eleven thousand miles on odometer. And sold it for thirty five thousand dollars in 1994. It had fifty one thousand miles on the odometer. It was a sleeper with the rally wheels with small caps and spinners. Just two crome Cuda on each side front fenders and crome large Cuda on tail below trunk lid. Metal flake blue with blue bucket seats and rear seats all leather. AC, am/fm caset player. No rust. Shinny metal and paint job under carriage like just rolled off factory floor. Banker in OKC.Ok. Sent man for two hundred dollars to inspect it. Told me I could have gotten more for the Cuda at a auction it would have been well over fifty thousand. I had already told the banker the price and I stood on my word. SEMPER FIDELIS

[@matrox]

Anyone remember the "Top Banana" yellow that mopar had out?😁

[@grantr5417]

Top Banana and Lemon Twist yellow were the same color. Code FY1. Top Banana was Dodge, Lemon Twist was Plymouth. The 'Cuda at the beginning is this color 😉

[@bradphillips6081]

I do a matter of fact I have a fender on my 69 Dodge Charger that's at color underneath the primer

[@Z_732]

Ya thanks ish. Im a mopar kid and already lost interest. But its cool you took the time to make this.

[@davidmiller9485]

So a couple of things about that 440 six pack cuda at the start... The 426 Hemi was de-tuned for the street. Return that tune and no the 440 wouldn't have kept up. Second the six pack is based of both the ford and chevy six pack systems. In this case the carbs are based on the ford and the linkage is based off the chevy.

[@matrox]

At 1:27:06 while they are driving the 1958 Chrysler 300D they are talking about how expensive it was at $6,000 new. The driver says that a 3 bedroom house was going for $15,000 in 1958. My neighbour when I was a teenager came home one day in 1982 in a brand new car. He seemed a bit worked up about something so I asked him about it. He said he paid more for the car than he had his house lol. In 1957 he bought his 3 bedroom/2 bath home in a really good neighbourhood for $11,500! and his new car was around $14,000. How I long for those days to return lol. He never refinanced his home, he simply made the same payment every month for 30 years lol I think his house payment was less than $100 per month lol My first house back in the late 1980’s was $800 per month! That’s more than he paid in 6 months lol. No wonder life takes 2 incomes per home now. I was fortunate enough to become an electrician and made enough $$$ to support my wife and children on one income and we lived well. Definitely in the upper middle class. Now its the end of 2021 and these young people can’t make it on their own anymore. My son is married and has 2 boys. I wanted them to not have to worry so much about money and I didn’t want him to have to wait for me to die before getting his inheritance lol. So I bought them a house that they could make into their home and not worry about making a mortgage payment. It also helps them not stress over every little thing like most of their friends do. It also means they don’t have to work long hours just to make ends meet which means they get to spend more time with my grandsons and so do I lol Cheers

[@jarheadjake503]

I started with a Chevy 396 rebored to a 402. Pop up pistons. Ground and policed heads w/heavy duty vale’s and springs. Muncie four speed with cut linkage. In a 66 super sports S/S. Hooker headers, cut-outs between front axle and door. 15 inch tires hosier cheater slicks. Two gallon tank where battery was. Moving battery to rear trunk. Removing rear seats, hood, and jack & spear tire. I had a bum or so I thought who I met at the track in Anaheim California. Later to find out his name was Big Daddy Don Garlet. He had my car set to run low nines. When I started running twelve’s he took me down to low nines. He had me go to a holly eight fifty carb. Remove inside front finders wells & and pull windshield wipers off. Back then he was working with Shirley Muldowney and John Force. Early seventies. I was in the Marine Corps stationed at El Toro Marine Air Base. I ran APO fuel from the base in my two gallon tank up front in battery place. Draining my gas tank when I got to the track. Big Daddy even had me pull my ajr conditioner out and the cooler. When I ran he would set up the races and I would make quite a bit of money, winning. My car was stolen right before I got discharged. It was the end of my racing days. IT was insured but I did miss it. SEMPER FIDELIS

There was another aspect to Petty switching to Ford- and that was the Boss 429. With the Talladega's slippery shape and the 429 power the Ford was a winner. Petty switched back- at least partly- because Ford pulled out of racing.

[@davidthayer6969]

that more the factor than anything else. When Ford cut almost all NASCAR Funding at the end of 1969 and they were not going to renew Petty for 1970.

[@chriswalshe499]

Those scoops on the quarter panels- they SAID it was fr tyre clearance but it was really to cool the brakes. It was a way of getting around the rules that said you couldn't cut panels to help cool the brakes. Think about it- those scoops are thin as but the nascar tyres were huge. It would have helped clearance at all, it was about the brakes.

Mopar muscle styling didn't start to look good until 68' with the 68' B body cars. Before that they still had that Stodgy Virgil Exner styling. The 67' Barracuda was a big improvement over the old Valiant Barracuda body. But I will admit just by adding some fat tires to a pre 68' model can drastically improve the looks.

[@billmagorian490]

The big question is why a coiumn shifter when you have a 440 6 pak motor??

[@tillivanilli6481]

About the both Clones: Doesn´t Plymouth painted the Body parts behind the Grill in matt black out of the stock??? That´s anything what i´m asking me often, when i see such cars like these on the screen or also sometimes in real, and even not mopars only, but in this case it is really in sight with the shiny colors of the Cuda for example. It was looking so much better if the area behind the grill was painted in matt black, that the thinking of the Designer/Stylists back in the days would come more right about these nice, wide grills what are like a black out. When there shins the color of the car body through the grill, especially when it is such a shiny color it looks odd or even not ready.I´m very sure about that Chrysler let do a little after paint job with matt black in this area at the assembly lines back then, even to make it all right about the whole styling of these examples...??? I saw something like a little matt black paint job done at the assembly lines after the body of the car was painted in the body color, but i don´t remember which car, make or model it was still in the moment, sorry...But so it is even more interesting if this little detail would be forgotten so often when people restore such beautyful cars & i think it was also very interesting for the owners of such examples, if this was done back then in the factory.... :) Cheers Till ( If not, i´m sorry i´m a Auto stylist/designer, what is looking very very carefully & detailed about a design/styling of an Automobile...what let me allways think & ask, how the designers/Stylists was thinking about any design/styling when they did that at any car wht i´m looking at.... :))
