The Dodge Scat Pack bee

The Steven Juliano Collection, I'm betting it's the best collection of Mopar stuff anywhere.

For dozens of photos of the rarest Mopar automobilia, look all through http://www.stevenjuliano.com/home.htm . He collected 3 of the Rapid Transit System Caravan concept cars too! They were a huge hit at the 2000 Chyrslers at Carlisle http://www.popularmechanics.com/automotive/reader_rides/1267096.html?page=2

Thanks to Nick for letting me repost some of his websites photos, I'm very appreciative!

I learned of this collection at http://carrosantigos.wordpress.com/ who has an incredible cool variety of stuff!
