Cool videos of The Midwest Mopars in the Park. It is recognized as the largest all-Mopar car show in the Midwest, attracting enthusiasts from across the region. The 2026 event marks the 42nd annual show, featuring a three-day celebration of classic and modern Mopar vehicles, including muscle cars, C-bodies, and other Chrysler, Dodge, and Plymouth models.

Thanks for posting Tom. In my 68th year I find my tastes have changed considerably and now view so much from this time period as too large and unrefined with some exceptions. Having said that, many from this time period are some of the best canvases for major customization. Curious about yours and others thoughts?

I love the late 60s/early 70s muscle car era. When I was 15, I started reading all of the auto mags, like Car Craft, Car & Driver, Popular Hot Rodding, etc. and going to the local dragstrip.

Since my first car was a 1963 Plymouth Belvedere, I became a MOPAR fan and started following Ronnie Sox and his HEMI cars. That's why my first muscle car was a 1971 'Cuda 340. My younger brother also liked MOPARS and his first car was a 1968 Charger (383).

While I love my 2009 Challenger SRT, I would gladly trade it for a classic muscle car.
