I have a 69 triple black Charger R/T SE. No sooner do you get it washed and it's dusty again. When it comes time to go for a ride, I never choose the Charger. I always choose one of the other cars. The answer is simple. You obviously like general lee cars so buy the general and drive it until you're tired of looking at it and then remove the general lee stuff and paint it whatever color turns you on. It's cheaper than buying another car. I just changed my chal convert from vit c to yellow and I love it. I'm thinking about changing the color of my 71 cuda from red to sassy grass green just to have something different. I recently stripped the charger for repaint and can't make up my mind whether to return it to it's original black color or do something different this time. I would never sell any of my cars but I do get a little tired of the same old thing sometimes.

Now I know what's happening to all of our muscle cars...they're leaving the country.  lol

 :laughup: I could be to blame.........twice.  :laughing:


Yeah, I can't afford and nor do I want to re-paint it every few years.  :grinno: Basically one or the other and I'm leaning the triple blac 68 by a good margin now (80%). I prefer the 1968 year, the 69 would only keep me happy if it was a General Lee. Just my opinion.  :thumbs:


Thanks for your input.

Thanks Bronco, but I have seen Bullett. It was a 1968 Charger.  :drool:

Not a big fan of Bullett, never have been. A lot of pointless movie drama for a 3-4 minute car chase.  :yawn:


Thanks for your input though mate.  :beer:

 Great choice NZ!!! To me there's nothing nicer than a shiny black mopar!
 I drive my black Challenger to work every day, even though the paint is shot, I still like a clean car. Just keep one of those car dusters in your trunk and you'll be fine.
