Hey, I heard that from all the way over the pond!!! :biggrin:

I know Dave but man what a car! They make powerwashers you know! :mrgreen:

The man that built it is an engineer for Hewlett Packard, wonder what division he works in? :biggrin:

Thanks for backin me up Wayne. Panther Pink was a Hi-Impact MoPar colour ya know.

Dave is really going to think stranger things than he already does about me :lol:

but,(I hate to admit it), that freaking pink car "inspired me" to use the suspension components I chose at the time my car was "coming together" I came within a c**t's hair of having welded subframe connectors, but the shops owner John B. talked me out of it,(The damned bastard :mrgreen:

)! it states in the article that he used a specially made "boxed" connector that "bolts" in. I dont know if he meant that specifically or was just using a different term to describe attaching it properly,(Welded).

Here Dave. Check this fish out. I really LOVE the colour of this one and the way it "sets"(Stance). See Dave I'm not a flaming uphill gardening Cheeky Monkey afterall! :biggrin:

2 It's chassis is similar to the Challenger above. it's built to turn also.

by **Eddie** » 12 Oct 2007 19:39

These cars would give Drew a woody! :mrgreen:

I have one just like it. Panther Pink 340 T/A :thumbsup:

Oh,

It's 1/24th Scale. Love that car though Eddie. Mopar's can wear that color with Machoism. Some Chevy's and Ford's are unsure about their sexuality. Hot Mopar's love Plum Crazy Purple too!!! :s003:

I agree Pat. We dont need no steenking badges, err colours! :mrgreen:

At the recent Mopar show there was one of those ten reasons tee shirts. One of the reasons was something to the effect of Mopar guys aren't afraid to drive a pink car.

Wow, I never really liked those cars until now! Thats really sweet Ian! How did those cars handle around the turns? I know they were pretty fast on the dragstrip besting many V-8 cars in the process. Were they built to turn? What suspension options /brakes did they equip the top line with? Thanks for posting that car, it's beautiful/unique,(I really like those slots on her are they stock)

by **ianandjess** » 17 Oct 2007 13:00

gday eddie they did handle quite well they were more effective on the smaller tighter circuits of new zealand than they were on our larger circuits they came with disc brakes on the front ,finned drums on the rear heavier torsion bars than the std models & the front rear spring hanger had 2 mounting positions so it could be set up for different situations
cheers ian

by **dave-r** » 17 Oct 2007 13:18

by **Eddie** » 17 Oct 2007 13:45
