Thanks.
Lots of great memories.
It's a 69 non-R/T bondo special.
Limited teenager funds.
I moved up to the 69 Charger from my first car which was a 65 Chrysler 300 convertible.
The Charger had a 383 4bbl automatic with a 3.23 posi rear end.
I hopped it up with ET mags, glass pack mufflers and a Holly carb.
It was a heavy slug....Ran decent but by no means fast.
It looked good (from a distance) and sounded cool.
I was what they considered back then on Woodward Avenue a "stroke".
"Strokes" drove cars that the guys with the hot cars wouldn't waste their time on or consider racing.
You had to earn your way up the ladder by winning some races to get a shot at the hot cars.

It's a photo of a photo taken with a 35mm.
I no longer have the negative.
