    Looks like you were at the Papa's Dodge show? The black painted bumpers were added to the car years ago.

    The elastomaric bumpers were initially supposed to be available on the 1970 Challengers, but it did not happen for some reason. They did come available in 1971 and were a one year only deal. They do look great, I do not care for chrome much, so if I found a set I would gladly add them to my T/A as well.  :thumbsup:

    Ken Papa (Papa's Dodge) has owned that car for years, I am sure he found a pair of the bumpers someplace long ago.......

    I really liked the textured paint finish on the bumpers,seemed to be a little more texture than the organisol.

    Man, I cant agree more.  Too nice to drive during the day.  Must drive at night, very intimidating at night.    8) 

    Just imagine that thing pulling next to you at the stoplight, six pack sucking air at an idle.  I would sh!t my pants!

    Rumor has it that the only black T/A known so far with a white vinyl top and interior will be at Carlisle next month.  ;)

    Double-black T/A.  Can't get much tougher than that for a Chally! :2thumbs:

    However, I'm not a fan of elasto bumpers on Challys, unless they're on '72-'74s w/the painted grille and headlight surrounds and hood trim.
