:faint:  Dang!!!!  You've got a lot of nice car!!!!!!!  :2thumbs:

Welcome, Bulldog!  :wave:

You cars are awesome looking!   :cooldancing:

Your '72 Challenger is the closest I've seen to my car!   :grinyes:  I have a '71 Go-Wing gull wing style for my car too!  I don't have the Rallye louvers though since my car came with the bodyside mouldings...  :walkaway:

The '72 RR looks wicked cool too!  I love the stance/rims on it!  The '69 Firebird looks great too!

BTW-Check out my model car in my signature... looks like your car, I now have a '71 Go-Wing on the model too!  ;)

Does yours have a six pack?

Only if I get it from the liquor store and throw it in the back seat!  :roflsmiley:  :smilielol:  Ha, actually I don't drink beer... :crazy:  Your car is in great shape!  I wish my paint was like that!

Nah, that would be too cool.  My car is pretty much stock.  Still has the Thermoquad on there, engines never been taken apart, about 106K miles.  I have to change out the vacuum hoses because I think there may be a leak, those are original too.  :faint:  Stock 8.5:1 compression but can still light up the tires pretty easy (No sure grip is probably the reason.  >:( )

My car actually came with steel wheels and hubcaps from the dealer, I have those in the garage.  The Magnum 500s came off a '70 Road Runner, got them with tires for $100, then I refinished them.

I have some fun bolt ons to give it a little more flair, Mr. Gasket Street Scoop, the afore mentioned Go-Wing, Keystone Klassics..... it has fog lights and trailer hitch from the original owner because he used to tow snow mobiles in New Hampshire with 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.

Sorry, I don't have any #s on them.  It seems to me that this blue is not as popular as other colors go...possibly since that this color was used in the "non-performace years" as some may say.  :(  I think from the factory it was used only '72-'73 on Challengers.  If it were not for Petty, who knows how much people would like this color.  I like it.  It's sort of like the Grabber Blue on Boss 302 Mustangs.  Odd that it isn't a High Impact color as IMO it would fall in line with the Sublimes and Panther Pinks etc...  I usually don't call it Petty Blue, usually call it Super Blue since that was the designation at the time, but people can relate better to Petty Blue.
