News struck earlier last week that one of our own mopar members, Christopher Louden, had passed away. We were all sadden by the news as it came to a surprise to everyone. ‘Chris’ as everybody knew him as was an all-around awesome guy. His favorite hobby was cars – mopars in general. He was extremely knowledgeable in the mopar scene, and always offered a helping hand when needed.

I myself used to bug Chris all the time as we shared the same interest – Dukes and The General Lee. He always cracked up laughing when I mentioned “Hey, when are you going to start working on your 73′ Charger?” as he was always focused on getting his 1966 Charger pieced back together. Not to mention the countless times we swapped pics of our projects thru email.

According to Chris, one of his most beloved cars was the Dirty Mary Crazy Larry 1969 Charger…He always dreamed of one day being able to own a replica of that famous mopar. Well, as sad as it may seem down here to us, I’m sure he’s up there ripping and roaring in his new car. You will be truly missed, Chris, by both your family and friends. Hopefully we’ll meet again someday.
