Default GRAND-SPAULDING DODGE - TODAY!

I hate stealing an entire thread from the HAMB, but you guys gotta see this current picture of Grand-Spaulding Dodge. Just click the link. It's amazing to think of the cars that rolled out of this facility: Hemi's, Altered Wheelbase early Funny Cars doing wheelies on the street in front on the place, 6-Pack, Challenger T/A's, etc. This photo just about sums up the decline of Western civilization. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/s...=1#post4170237

There are three brothers up north here in Sweden, who bought their Hemi-cars at Grand-Spaulding Dodge back in the day. The last time I read an article about them they still had the cars.

The 26,000 mile 1966 Hemi Charger (white/red 4 speed) that sold at Indy may be a Grand Spalding car. It would be nice to confirm that.

Too sad.


My first ride in a Hemi car was a 68 Charger purported to be a Norm car. Owned by a guy named Bob Horman in Chicago.
