BBTR #09 - what a record-setting blast!

[Georg/BBTR]

Hi everybody,

Just wanted to share some photos from last weekend's BBTR #09. We had a whopping 64 (!) Fuselage C-Bodies on site, with three Hursts and one Sport Fury GT plus other rarities. I will post some more atmospheric images and pictures of the cruise later. Hope to see you all there next year for the 10th anniversary! The date is July 4th to 6th, 2025.

We counted 12 Plymouth's, 9 Dodges, 7 Imperials and 36 Chryslers.

Thank you for posting and sorting by make! What a great turnout.

Also good to see one 1970 and two 1969 ´verts. I think I’ve seen that DR8 1879 300 before — at least if the front splitter is a new addition. @fc7_plumcrazy am I correct?

The car evolved quite a lot. That's how it looked like eight years ago:

Is that it before it crossed the pond, or is that another burgundy vert also in Germany? @ceebuddy

Are we talking this car, @ayilar? That's the same 300 convertible in 2020 (above) and 2024 (below).

Incredible show.

I'm embarrassed that we can't seem to get that many of ALL years C bodies together here in the states, let alone, fuselage cars specifically.

I'm determined to change that.

 

[Georg/BBTR]

Good luck with the implementation, @71Polara383! Fingers crossed! And don't worry when it takes some time to grow. BBTR started eight years ago with just 26 cars...

It looks like attendance will be down for Carlisle but on average there is a hundred or more Cbodies at Carlisle. The fact that they get spread out hurts the appearance. Some years wagons and convertibles get attention and have their own category. 300s always get their own category so they're seperate. Imperials , also their own section.
Carlisle has not said ok, all Cs go here in 30 years.

But that's a giant car show that attracts everything mopar, and that covers ALOT of ground.

I'd much rather start/attend/grow a C body specific show and swap. We have the numbers. So many are set into their routines with existing shows it makes it hard to fit something new into their schedule.

BBTR - USA is something that great minds/planners should start considering.

Yeah, you're right. I do recall that the Imps were elsewhere, etc, etc.

Which takes nothing away from the amazing BBTR!
