    Me too,I just picked up a low mileage but very weathered - not driven since 81 and parked behind a shed- ap5 push button auto and although its probably sacrilege to say it would have been a more advanced and probably better car than an XM Falcon or an EH looking at it now. 3 speed auto, 225 cube six, torsion bar front end, pretty snazzy in 64.

    Go the old AP5
    I think Chrysler was a little more adventurous in their styling and it wasnt to everyones tastes. I grew up with dads 67 VC.....that thing was a tank and it just wouldnt die......18 yrs of loyal service that gave us. Only in its last days it started blowing smoke.....cried like a baby when i saw that drive away :(
    Would really dig seeing some shots of the AP5

    My cousin basically cant enter his hardtop in mopar shows anymore.....he cleans up everything. Theyve politely asked him not to enter it for a while. It really is a thing of beauty. Has the design team autographs on the air cleaner too!!



    And here is his CL Charger, another stunning car......skip to 4:10 to check it out. Its a V8 killer that one

    Photo shows the old girl as found behind a farm shed in Gundagai, 1981 rego sticker, first 20 or so services written on the back of the owners manual. Grandson of the original owner had sold the place and was having a clean up.
