1970 'Cuda or 1968 Charger?
« on: July 05, 2005 - 04:25:31 AM »
Wanting to know what you guys would own if you already had a 70 Challenger R/T in the garage, restored and ready to go.
I know this is an E-Body site but I know a lot of you also like you B-Bodies and as I've stated you already "have" a 70 Challenger.


Engine options, color, etc are what ever you choose, basically this poll is on looks and styling of that year.
(MY Charger color choices would only be black, The 'Cuda either Vitamin C Orange or Sublime.)  8)



So lets start the poll.......



Cheers,
Carl

is this just because you were bored, or have you come across these cars for sale?

Nope, it's what I am wanting. Not sure which. Just wanted the opinions of other board members.  :thumbs:



I failed to mention this is for a daily driver, BOTH will be clones.  ;)

That's tuff.  I would say for you... go with the Charger.  That leaves more 'Cudas for me.   ;D :grinyes: ;D :grinyes:

There is just something about a "Cuda.  And with the new "Charger" out now, I don't want to be telling people.... "no, not the new Charger, I have the good one.. you know the old one."
The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realize it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

The E-bods are the greatest!! - I would and do want a 'Cuda to say I have a "set" if you will.

Now don't get me wrong, Chargers are cool - but if I could only have one it would be one of each E-bod.

A 68 Charger has a look all it's own. My choice would always be between a Challenger and a Charger in that order.

Cuda all the way for me, no contest. My favorite Chargers are the 70's with the loop bumper, and the 71-2's

Thanks lads, looks as though it's pretty tight.  :-\ :D


CODY: Thats all good, we don't get the Chargers down here. When and if people ask I'll just make sure the year is ALWAYS included.

Example: "Do you own a MoPar, what?" "A 1968! Dodge Charger R/T"  ;D


Cheers lads keep those votes coming....... :wave:

I'll take the '68 Charger. Only because i've always like "B" bodies better that "E"'s. But my Favorite are still "A" Bodies.

So you voted Cuda eh Eric?  ;D I am totally in the middle, both are awesome.

One of the main reasons I would go Charger over the Cuda is because the interior in the Cuda is basically the same.
The Charger is a TOTALLY different style car, different interior and just looks bad. I am probably more with the Charger.  :grinyes:
