I have to say, just based on the small pics he posted, it looks like he did a good technical job.  I wouldn't want to own it, but the "conversion" looks well done. 

Just looked again.  Did he put a Cobrajet scoop on it?

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.

I won't bash it. The guy has a good imagination. At least he didn't put any Chebby of Ferd stuff on it.

For the most part I agree with Mike.  But I sweat that looks like a Cobrajet scoop to me.

In my mind, I'm hoping that is a Cuda scoop.   :smilielol:

I wont knock him for it,I thought about doing the gills on my 69 barracuda.Can't bring myself to cutting up a perfect set of fenders though.Imagination is one thing,but making it happen is another.The car is getting a bashing all over the net,I hope he gets great money for it.

Overall the car looks pretty nice to me. The scoop needs to go and the gills don't look good on anything except real 1971 'CUDAs IMO. He took too many of the same picture. He needed to show a pic of the interior and the engine.
