tangled up in BLUE Prowler Junkie Posts: 11086 From: New Castle, Ind Registered: DEC 2000	posted 11-21-2005 10:41 AM HEMI Challenger RT/SE... the guy I sold it to still owns it....it is in Pawley Island, SC.....it was beyond perfect when I sold it, and it is even better now... I also owned the first 69 Dodge Daytona shipped in the USA, the only triple black T/A Challenger 4sp known to exist(had 3K miles) ....sold him both of those too.....also sold him a red/red/ 70 Challenger T/A, a lime 70 CUDA 440 SIX BBL and a Plum Crazy 70 Challenger RT convertible with a 440....sold him all six cars in 10 days.....the Daytona was advertised recently in Hemmings for $395K.... the Daytona after a mild resto....it had 6K miles on it...pictured here with black wheels for a foto...usually wore Rally Wheels.. red/red Challenger T/A 4spd....car was bought new by Sidney Bonnecarre, a drag racer from Houma La. triple black 70 Challenger T/A 4spd....3K miles when I owned it...long interesting story came with the car...in short, it spent many years stored in the woods in a small shed and used to store drugs and money...it was also a "Mr Norm Grand Spaulding Dodge"...fully doccumented by Norm...of all the MOPARS I ever owned, more people still ask about this car than all the others put together....it was a beautiful car...in its early days the car was painted a gold metalflake and drag raced for money in Chicago....it won thousands of $$$ for the owner during it's reign on the street... no pix of the other two cars.....they just passed thru my hands for a couple of days and were on their way to the new owner...

meandmykitty unregistered Posts: 2723 From: Denver, Colorado, USA Registered: DEC 2000	posted 11-21-2005 04:55 PM I THINK THE CHARGER LOOKS GREAT. I ALMOST BOUGHT THE DAYTONA IN ORANGE ON FRIDAY, BUT MY WIFE WANTED THE H3 HUMMER SO WE GOT THAT INSTEAD. I MAY WAIT FOR THE CHALLENGER IT'S A 2 DOOR MORE SPORTY, I HEARD THE PRICE WILL BE THE SAME AS THE CHARGER. JMO. RICK

MDProwler Prowler Junkie Posts: 5250 From: Fallston,MD USA Registered: JUL 2003	posted 11-21-2005 07:05 PM The more I look at the pictures the more it looks like a customized 70's challenger. Front window pillars, roofline, body lines, door handles? Can it really be true? This message has been edited by MDProwler on 11-21-2005 at 07:06 PM

I have talked to my wife, and we are happy to park our minivan out on the street. Hence we are pleased to offer a space in our garage for your Ford GT. And, because you are an esteemed POA member, I will even offer to come to NJ and personally drive the GT to my home to ensure safe delivery. Your thanks is not necessary. It's the least I can do for a colleague. Yours, Kevin
