True, i thought the same after seeing them over and over again. Personally, i feel the round-hole-design compliments an E-body really nice. However not many different types and brands of such wheels are available here in Europe. For example i had to order my Weld Draglites directly from the states (and i'm really happy with that decision). Cragars seem to be distributed here in Europe, that's why a lot of people prefer to go the easy way and get what their dealer already stocks.

So far, i've only seen one other Challenger running Draglites.

I was thinking it might have something to do with availability. Don't get me wrong, I think they're good looking rims, its just interesting to see so many of the same kind all at one show...

Alot of very nice cars there!  Helping me decide on a color for mine.  :clueless: I do have a question since I'm not as familiar with challengers as I am cudas......  In my consideration of a vinyl roof, I noticed in the first pic, the back window seems small.  I thought, maybe it has something to do with the vinyl.  But then I could see from the second pic looking through the windows, the rear window seems the normal size.  And its a vinyl car too.  Could someone explain this?


nevermind. I figured it out looking in my parts interchange book. It is a formal roof package available on 71 models, or on 70 SE models. Please feel free to Correct me if I'm wrong. Thats just what I concluded from the book.

Nice cars! Also noticed many had silver painted hoodscoops. Probably a trend. Here in Norway "everybody" has American Racing TT2's. E-bodys are few and far between here in Norway, usualy 4-5 cars on big meetings.

The event is called "American Live Oensingen" and as the name says it takes place in Oensingen (SO), about half an hour from Basel. With over 2500 cars per day it's the biggest meeting of American Cars in Switzerland, organized by the local "Friday Night Cruisers". One hell of a cool show!  :ylsuper:
