A Local MoPar guy has some of his cars sitting out. I was hoping to see his '72 'Cuda (silver and black vinyl top, black interior 340 4-speed car 
), but he's either driving it or has it hidden inside.

He does love his Keystone Classics, doesn't he?
Not sure which one I like more...the '68 Barracuda notchback, or the '70/'71 Dart Swinger. Both are sharp lookin' rides!

He sure does. I think the 'Cuda also has some on it.
ON THIS DAY IN 1956, CHRYSLER INTRODUCED RECORD PLAYERS MOUNTED UNDER THE DASHBOARD
READ ABOUT THE INTRODUCTION HERE: https://www.mentalfloss.com/.../highway-hi-fi-chrysler...
On this date in 1956, the Chrysler Corporation introduced high fidelity record players for their 1956 line-up of cars (Oct 12, 1956).
The unit measured about four inches high and less than a foot wide and mounted under the instrument panel.
The seven inch discs spun at 16 2/3 rpm and required almost three times the number of grooves per inch as an LP.
A set of 35 classical recordings were available that provided between 45 and 60 minutes of uninterrupted music. The players would be discontinued in 1961.

I'm not at all a leather in cars person - but that is beautiful!
I love the '72 Torino and Ranchero. I owned a nice little yellow '72 Torino for a while. By '73...eh. Not a fan, really.
I had a newer Ranchero but LOVE the older ones more.
Ran those down in Nevada, just ouside of WInnemucca. Hycroft Gold Mine had a brand new fleet of them. 300 ton capacity.
They also had 2 Cat 330 ton trucks. Electric drive motors on each rear wheel with a HUGE Diesel Generator poweing them!!
