Default Steven Juliano Rapid Transit System Caravan Cars at MCACN

As most already know, we lost one of our finest Ambassadors of the Mopar (and Shelby) Community after a nearly ten year battle with pancreatic cancer. In addition to being an all around fun and awesome guy, Steven Juliano was a great personal friend of mine for nearly 30 years. We shared the same passion for all things Mopar, and I feel blessed to have known him and to have shared some great times.

As those who knew Steven can attest, it was never about him, but about preserving the history of the cars and all of the related elements. NOBODY did it better than Steven! What you also know is that Steven would not want his legacy to be in any way sad...

I am both thrilled, honored and incredibly humbled to say that Stevens three Rapid Transit System Caravan cars WILL BE ON DISPLAY AT THE UPCOMING MUSCLE CAR AND CORVETTE NATIONALS SHOW, November 17-18.

I had been working with Steven for close to two years preparing for the showing of his cars. As time went on and his health was changing, sometimes on a daily basis, Steven made sure that all aspects of this display would be handled exactly as he wished, and that is exactly what we will do.

Of course, all the "Experts" have been out there saying it will never happen, or the cars were sold or (insert your favorite comment) but Stevens response to that can not be posted here. Suffice it to say they are not true.

Stevens family is 100% on board and devoted to making sure that this display does Steven proud.

Every year when Steven joined us at MCACN, we always spent some time in the upstairs office looking over the show floor and having some laughs. Last year before he left, we hugged and he said "the cars will be here next year whether I'm here or not!" and true to his word, his family share his desire and commitment.

Honored, humbled, sad but excited. Words truly can not express the mix of emotions.

So with that being said, please plan on joining us Saturday, November 17 and Sunday, November 18. We have dedicated our show to the memory of Steven Juliano, with sincere appreciation to his family.

These cars have NEVER been shown together publicly anywhere or any time, even "back in the day" as they are 1970 and 1971's, with the Duster being updated for '71.

This truly is a once in a lifetime opportunity for ALL of us.

Please help us get the word out there to anyone and everyone who would be interested.

Thanks;

This will be one for the books when it comes to displays of unique cars. Thanks to Steve, his family and Bob for making it happen.

Sorry that I did not get to meet one of the fine ambassadors of the collector car hobby, but I believe we would have gotten along great.... A loss of this magnitude is definitely felt in our hobby.... bless the family for their grieving and pay attention to the efforts laid forth for this display!
