Replying to: Mr_Shiftright (Jul 26, 2008 11:48 am) They were talking about that same Magnum in my Mopar club. I think for the most part everyone concurred it was a horrible thing to do to a car, but one guy argued that at least this guy is keeping these things out of the junkyard! Still, I dunno. I love the '78-79 Magnum, but I wouldn't touch that one, so I guess to me it shouldn't matter if it ended up in the junkyard or not! Evidently the guy has a fetish for putting those wings on Magnums. I've heard that the same guy has a bunch of them that he's inflicted this treatment on. I wonder how big of a deal it would be to just take the wing off and fill in the holes? Then all you'd have to worry about is that loud, "ARREST ME" color that simply does not suit that car well at all. These things look much better in dark colors, like black, midnight blue, or even the lighter blues and greens they offered back then. Heck, even brown would look better on this car than that yellow! |

| I'd rather be driving my Volvo 850 than any mid-90s Toyota Supra. I'd get bored rather easily if I owned one of the latter. With the 850, I never get bored with it- it's such a great car to drive, even though the maintenance costs are a little above average. | |
You drove through Bennington, Vermont? Bennington is my hometown! I love it there- small world.

| Today I saw an MG Magnette of the type Magnette owns. Can't be many of those on the road on this continent. | |
