What's going on here? Some surprise big live announcement from Stellantis or nothing? We'll see in a few minutes ...

Yeah, but while the motor had decent torque, the horsepower was horrible by our current standards...

Face it...by any standard...they were slugs...

is there an interpreter in house

He's out of booze that he was drinking for the reveal. He crashed a Plymouth and has a piece of steel lodged in his back????

You guys made me read three pages.
I am going to check the educational thread.

Yep slug was very fitting name, but throw that all aluminum light Helephant crate In that’s designed for pre 76 vehicle and weighs a lot less than Re or Hellcat. I would say Bulls car in the pic is 3500 lbs maybe 3700 LBS with large B body rear wheel wells for larger skins out back, and would be an absolute terror. The front shoes on that bumper has to go.

My favorite was,,,, do I have to comment on this?? Ok, favorite was the Vega early 70s time bomb with a very un orchestrated gas tank. On the info tank of decommissioned Plymouth products my family owned and destroyed was wide spread. My brother put me thru the windshield of a brand new 64 Barracuda on the top of Lookout Mt Tenn and over a 400 ft plus bluff was hanging by 1 cable. The car was 1 cable out of going over and I was trapped in the windshield with dash stuck up my ass. Not where you want to be on Sat night. I picked glass out of my____----- face for 6 months. Being to be picked for the Olympics for swimming at McCallie School, not good. It was a military school and did not look at this intervention with traffic court lightly. I am a brief reflection of my child hood.

That was a rocket compound to the ‘69 Karman Ghia I was driving in ‘73. It’s quarter mile time was quicker than its 0-60. (27 seconds) 53 hp.

Speaking of/// I grew up on Goats Hill in Chattanooga, Tenn with a very shady past, From the 1860's and is very strange. Look it up on U Fing Tube. The Outlaws moved their club house there due to no one will mess with them, and not there. It is very haunted by the American Indians. Unfortunately during construction in the 40's grand dad, a lot of bones were discovered. They built a log house, 3,700 sf, and the land was never the same. Still have steel in my back.

The plymouth was back in my time in Vermont, so studded tires were a thing...

 

[Magnified]

Yes sir. Had a souped up Pontiac 400 in a ‘78 TA, and waisted a new set in a couple of months in Des Moines back then. They got good traction. Slowing down was a bitch.

New flavor this week Sugarland Shine American Peach. Shine in the freezer for 2 hours and a quart jar in the same. No need to mix with another beverage, great and smooth. Sippin stuff.

 

[Magnified]

For a Plymouth???.....Plymouth was my first car...and I still have one...(1200..original miles...)

Damn, it was broken a lot!
