Hi Guys
Just wondering, whats the survival rate for Challengers? any ideas?
Is 10% 20% 30% ? Or is it totally impossible to calculate?

We have a general idea of how many were produced, but we have no accurate number of how many are still around.

Great question. :thumbsup: I would guess less than 50% are left. I saw a lot of them in the southern California junk yards back in the 70-80's. I would hit them like garage sales. :mrgreen: Parts were plentiful. You just had to pick them a part in the bloody bone yard. :s003:

Hi again guys
Just the thougt of seeing a Challenger on the junkyard scares the hell out of me, you must be branded for life :(
No reason to be afraid of that to happen here in Norway, instead the import started here in the late 70s when they were almost worthless in the US.
When my 71 R/T was purchased in NYC in 78 they paid 1500$ for it.
( nice orig con with many options)

Keep them alive!!
