I'm old and I guess Ijust don't like the newer cars.Just a matter of taste.
And I'm feeling just fine today.

Well Ed, I'm glad you're feeling just fine today, and I must agree with you on the wheels...they're way too big...what happened to 15" wheels being sufficient for most muscle cars (if not 14's)? I'll also agree that the cars should've been lighter too, but for looks that Challenger is still one cool looking ride!!!

I guess you can't get "Bimbo" brakes on them with 15" rims.

We have at current 2 of the 3 Challenger Body styles

I a 72, FC7 (not original of course soon to be twin turbo Hemi 6 speeed as soon as I get home and have a month to spend with her)

My old mans 70 FC7 Coupe, and 70 FC7 6Pak

Then the 2 new ones.

Now about a year ago, before the Orange one was striped, I parked next to an Orange Challenger at a Car show....

A bit later a Duster parked on the other side of me, it dawned on me , it looked like the Duster and the 70 (both orange) cars had a Baby.....the SRT8.....

My dad ordered the custom shoulder stripe right after, FULL length, with narrow pins around, really takes down the "slab side" first thing the dealer and about 19 other people who had seen and were familiar with the car....YOU LOWERED IT !?! Nope....all visual.

I really want a Panther Pink one.....If I had a white interior without stealing the one from my dads coupe, I would but I have an all new black interior, if youre gonna do pink gotta do white to.
