Hello all,

I spent a lot of quality hours at the Houston Mopar Show & Race this 
weekend. We had a brief rain delay on Saturday, but Sunday was clear.

Had a good visit with Clubhouse member Jimmy Peavy and saw his nice '63 
Polara 500 run high 12's in the 1/4. Missed seeing the race he had 
against a '63 Plymouth running in the 10's. Darn. That would have made a 
nice picture! 

There was a pretty good turnout of show cars and race cars. I think 
about 175 Mopars were entered in the car show, with quite a number of 
racers too. There  also were a lot a trucks, as the Dakota Club was a 
major show co-sponsor and brought out about 100 Dakota trucks from all 
over the country, and Canada. 

The top news is that the "Best of Show" was a 1962 Dart max wedge 413 
car, a 1 of 3 made car originally out of California, now residing in 
Missouri, I believe. I took a number of pictures of the '62 and will 
post a page about it asap.  

Meanwhile, you can see one picture of the '62 Dart online, along with 
several '62 to '65's, and some of the more offbeat vehicles that showed 
up at the Houston Mopar Show & Race, here:

Enjoy!

P.s., There were, of course, dozens of other nice later 60's and early 
70's  Mopars at the show and race, along with PT's and FWD turbo cars, 
like 13 second Neons. Photos of these will show up on the Houston site 
over the next month as people submit the photos for posting.
