Looks like they have made it out of a 1970 Challenger SE. :22yikes:

I was born in 1971, And i have made my own transition into cars, as i grew up without the influence of a Father figure for guidance.   I got into hot rodding at an early age and have developed from their.  Mopars are my number one passion and i have a deep respect for what happened in the 60's and 70's, this car has its place and should be respected for what it is.

For what it is worth :2cents: I like it. :2thumbs:

I pay homage to the best Mopars ever built.

I guess we`re lucky people got different tastes. Otherwise we`d all be driving ricers, and all lock the same.
But G-man tell us how you really..really feel









































Sorry, just kidding

You would have to look like Ronald McDonald to drive this thing. Dont forget to add the little squeeze Horn in the corner of the front-side window
 :roflsmiley: :roflsmiley: :roflsmiley: :roflsmiley:
That visual nearly made me p!ss myself  :smilielol:


SOrry but, ppl talk about ricers and how they add exhausts and think they got 1000HP, well NO Ricer looks this bad. If you guys saw something like this on a Jap car you would laugh your as5 off at them but because its a "Challenger" you would actually drive it?
Talk about Closing your eyes to reality. :eek7:


 I'm sorry G-man, but I would have to disagree about your statement that "NO ricer looks this bad"
A few examples if you would indulge me for a minute  :smilielol:

(thank you to the rice haters club for these pics  :cheers:)

 What a ricer does, and what that Challenger represents I feel are two completely different things.
Just my  :2cents:

P.S. sorry to subject you all to this type of abuse, but I feel in this instant it was appropriate to post these pics  :rofl:

I like it if just for the memory flashes of when I was a kid with musclecars getting wild paint jobs and the van craze just starting up. I remember a Barracuda that had a Molly Hatchet album mural on the flat hood, it was cool. My brother in law has a 70 R/T SE in his garage with that same style of paint job on it although it is much more understated. Lose the grille and put some chrome bumpers on it and it would look pretty cool although I could never do that to my own car, as stated before I also like to fly under the radar as much as one can with an e-body.

Here's another one, you may have seen it in Mopar Muscle, it's actually a '71 with a '72 grill and tailpanel...
