In thinking along NZ's thought line....

HOw about a cheetah in full stride (I'm picturing he's heading to the right side of the page.  A little above and to the left the word "The" in the same script as Challenger, and under and just to the right the script "Challenger."  Nothing else just that simple image...

Anybody up for a little photoshop work as I konw I would butcher it up worse than a Ford small car designer.

Don't worry Gurragas will be up to the task I'm sure. Maybe half Challenger half Cheetah. The attached Challenger almost carries the exact colors, maybe a little lighter bronze. Have it transforming right before the windshield. It would almost look like the Challenger is popping a wheelie.

Sounds like you guys have settled on the 'SCAT CAT' as your logo.  I'm thinking you should stick with the cartoon style logo similar to the Scat Pack Bee or Roadrunner as this seems to be what Mopar thought best represented the '70s and muscle cars are meant to be fun anyway.

Alternatively, if you play on the R/T logo you could end up with 'SCAT RAT' although thats probably a bit Chevy.

this is the best image I could find
use just the blackout and the vents
then you overlay the challenger scriptcout add an r/t logo or tristar...

Yupe, fully agree with you.  :iagree:

I think what ever we end up choosing it must be a cartoon. "Real life" images just look to fake or modern.
If we stick to the cartoon style pictures we are half way there. Also, when people think Challenger, they think America. These cars were built when the Americans were miles a head of anyone else in the automotive market. Put some red, white and blue in there IMO. Check out the logo for the Chev Cheetah....it's almost what we want. lol

Just something cool from www.challengertalk.com

1972 Dodge Challenger Rallye 340, AT, Code TB3=Super Blue, SBD=8/17/1971.  Yes, a Rallye without the fender louvers from the factory because of the body side molding option.

Pic #2 and 3 of my ARII 1/24 scale model car 

Phil in New England-Massachusetts  Always thank God for what you have!

Cowboy .... that is what I was thinking... the hood black out... and black vents...

take an over head view of the whole thing and that would give you basicly a Black T with two lines under it.... use that as the base for the logo/emblem
