Read about our new project from the pages of Mopar Collectors Guide magazine March 2004 issue, page 15, written by Geoff Stunkard.
Reed Koeppe also told us he is launching a new website
www.RaceCarRegistry.com to help locate and register Mopar race car finds. While
there will be space for flip-top Funny Cars, the primary focus will be on door
cars - Stock, Super Stock, FX, Modified Production and 'match bash,' as the
mid-sixties early Funny Cars were nicknamed. This website will be for mixed marquee
vehicles, not just Chrysler stuff, with the primary years being 1962-1967. The
hope is twofold; to document both the existence or the demise of the cars from
this era, and to provide a reference location where one can help discover the
history of the cars. He realizes that this will be a fairly large undertaking,
but one which should reap good benefits for everyone involved. If you have info
you think would be of interest to this project, contact Reed at 308-236-5784 or
