This year Chrysler at Carlisle had a new system for the OE judging. Three very comptent jurys had got together and formed a new way of judging Mopars.

This year there were four cars running for OE. One super nice 71 Cuda, one 70 Hemi Superbird and the first 64 Plymouth Max wedge car and Ulf Andersons  Dodge. .

One of the judges:
While I will let Ulf tell you the results of the OE judging at Carlisle, I want to congratulate him on one of the finest restorations I have ever had the privilege to judge.
The effort, and parts, on this car are truly great. I hope that many of you get the chance to see it someday. 
Thank you for bringing this car to our country sir….

Ulf tells:

On Friday morning the three jury members were all over the my car for 3 hours! Inside, engine compartment, trunk and underside. Then meeting about date codes, paint splots, grease markings amd assembly line correctness.

The car scored OE Gold award and Best in Show!!

dodge1I would like to thank all FABO members who has helped me finding parts, assembly line procedures and answering all odd question about different thing over the years.

The Gold Award belongs to you as well! Without you this wouldn’t be possible! Thank you so much.

  1. Grattis Ulf.
    En fantastisk renovering, du har gjort dig väl förtjänt av utmärkelsen.
    Men jag tror ni har fått fel uppgift, Ulf bor i Tavelsjö utanför Umeå.

  2. Underbart att vi kan göra tidningen bättre tillsammans. Snabba nyheter är just snabba och ibland blir det fel.

    Tack för korrigering. Texten updaterad. Ännu en fördel med elektronisk tidning.
