DOTS: Interstate 95

[aremmes]

Yay, first proper post on the Hyphen!

I drove to Bal'more on Saturday, with part of the route took me through I-95. Most of the traffic consisted of the usual standard Northeast fare, but a couple of things caught my eye.

I'm not a fan of muscle cars, but this guy in a 1969+ Super Bee was winning all the way on the southbound side. Meaty, but not oversized tires on the back, and twin Ramcharger scoops on the hood. The driver was taking it easy, presumably because no overdrive.

The northbound side featured this nifty Montero with North Carolina temp tags, probably making its way to its new home of cold weather and salted roads.

Bonus roadside find:

I found this multitester while on a walk around the lake near my house. It came complete with current and temperatue probes and user manual in the black nylon bag in the background, although that manual was starting to decompose by the time I happened upon it. Sucks for whoever dropped it and had to shell out for a new one, but then again nobody needs this kind of instrument to go paddling or fishing.

Glad you found your way over! What color was that Bee? I can kinda imagine it’s dark green, but then I can see black instead.

I like the Super Bee a lot. Don't see too many of them on the roads. Well, I saw a Charger Daytona on the road once, but I don't feel like I see classic Mopar stuff with as much frequency as classic GM and Ford muscle cars.

@chariotoflove This one was black with a gray 'Bee stripe on the rear flanks.

@aremmes

Indeed a 69 Bee wearing 70+ Rallye wheels. Maybe a Dana underneath and also has slapper bars, which is normally not-a-Mopar thing.

@looseonexit it was fairly common to bolt Lakewood Traction bars on anything in the ‘80’s.

@aremmes Nice score!

[Chariotoflove]

@aremmes I like that.

No doubt. Mopar folks are only supposed to use pinion snubbers, Mopar Perf SS springs, and/or Cal-tracs only. It's an unwritten rule lol.

@looseonexit oh, my 318 Satellite had Hemi springs with the added launch spring.....because Hemi.

Hey, glad to have you with us!

@aremmes Interstate 95. Oh, you mean the Virginia Motor Speedway?
