I noticed that. Cool and a bit different with the painted grills in the nose. :thumbsup: Kinda shakes things up. Pun intended. I love those front spoilers too, I wish there was a non-intrusive way to mount them with out drilling into the sheetmetal, I really belive those work at speeds which I encounter on a "everytime I take my car out " basis :lol: It would look good on Waynes R/T with his 383 SixPack induction!(Just kiddin Wayne , you have enough bills already eh)

Cool cars, all three of them.

It is nice to see a ´72-´74 Challenger with the stroboscopic stripes.

The second photo reminds me of Dave´s car (except for some chrome of course.)

It looks like it has the wide sill mouldings that mine should have.

His 'glass' is coming off on that right corner. :lol: Cool car , I wonder if the AMC Javelin Rear spoiler influenced the rear spoiler mod on that 73/74? :thumbsup: Do you have anymore pics of that Challenger Drew? Are those sidemarkers factory? BTW, I cant wait to see your spoiler project! Bet it's gonna have a lot of 'push' for high speed plant eh!! :s003:

WOW! Is that a 34-37 DeSoto AirFlow? It's beautiful. All the cars are but that AF is historically significant for the Crysler Corp. It was a sales flop. It was much too advanced for the ignorant buying public at the time and featured both aerodynamics and strength with it's tubular frame welded construction with bolt/welded on panels. That roadster is incredible. He should be commended for his craftsmanship. I bet it's very quick and fast! :thumbsup:

I'm thinking Brock Yates "Cannonball Road Rally" Challenger, it kinda looks like it with the driving lamps in the grill area. Way Cool! :thumbsup:

A bit unusual with a 383 magnum below a shaker scoop, isn´t it?

Nice pic´s! :thumbsup:
