Sometimes you’re just driving along when something catches your attention as you whiz past. Was that a… no, it couldn’t be. This happened to me as I headed home from the Tri-State Swap Meet at Denver’s Stock Show Complex on Saturday. So, we went back around the block and I took this blurry, Loch Ness Monster-style shot (rather than get out of the truck in a snowstorm). No, it’s not a factory-made Superbird or Daytona, but maybe it’s a super-rare Chrysler prototype from the depths height of the Malaise Era, just parked in some dude’s driveway!
