Challenger Mascot

[Madmax440]

I kind of liked the vanishing point concept, but don't have the challenger running away from everyone else. Turn the Car around facing the challenge. Picture this - A 318 Challenger in the horizon facing a group made up of a Mustang, Bowtie, Cuda and a Roadrunner laughing. Then the Challenger gets closer and now it is bearing a 383 Magnum and the group looks a little more curious. Then the Challenger gets close enough to be the same size and now its a 440 Six Pack and the group starts to tremble with fear. Then for the last shot the Challenger is a 426 Hemi, towers above the rest and they are all hauling ass - In fact the Mustang can become a Jackass, the the Cuda becomes a minnow, etc.

According to the good book this is how it all happened. I am taking this from actual events that occurred in 1970 - I was there.

As far a the animal that best represents the challenger to me would be a Wolverine or a Tasmanian Devil. Both are small in stature, but tough as hell. They will fight to the death.

  Tom 'Mongoose' McEwen raced a hemicuda for a short time in the early 70s The natural enemy of the mongoose is the snake. Think Ford Cobras. The visual could be reminiscent of the mongoose as the Challenger and at the same time represent a link to the 'cuda. True to the original concept that cuda-challenger.com encompasses all years of both models

One more of thr "Raptor" if that's what it is by itself....

The Snake is none other than Don Prudhomme

The mongoose would make a great mascot then, sort of pays homage to the era. Riki-Tiki-Tavi

I'm just thowin' 'em out there.

I think he's our "man" he's always ordering crappy stuff from acme. Always getting a visit from the big brown truck. Sometimes he's tryin' to catch the Roadrunners....

Makes ya think.

Sorry Carl, That was some d**n fine work there, I am glad that you have a firm grasp on the task at hand. Although, A dinosaur the Challenger ain't, but you have the right idea with the david and goliath concept. I will have to give you three gold stars.

[Carlwalski]

Thank you! 


Yeah, it's too bust too, cool but too much going on. I'm backing the Mongoose.
That orange Moongoose above looks good as is!

Maybe we need a kow?








As in Kowalski. 

[Madmax440]

As far as the Coyote I like everything up to the "trying to catch the road runner". The Road Runner, Stangs, Cudas, etc. don't stand a chance against the __________. We have to fill in the blanks. Not seen originally as a champion, but would put up a challenge against any and all oncomers. Would chew its own leg off and beat you with the bloody stump to win the battle. What or who is this    

[Madmax440]

Carl, That would be a good project for you tonight - The earlier scenario that I posted starting with the 318 Challenger on the Horizon. Then in the last scene where they are all hauling ass have kowalski get out of the car with the mongoose on a leash - of course he will be gnawling on the leash.
