    That's one sweet In-voilet '67 Plymouth Challenger 354 Hemi!!! ::)  Seriously, it's a national publication, so you'd think they would at least get car details correct.

    Even if they managed to get the cars year right, how in the world would you call an in-violet and white fully badged and striped Hemi Challenger RT a sleeper?  It is faster than I would expect a trailer queen to be, but is no sleeper in my book.

    A four door 73 valiant with a twin turboed 340 is a sleeper.  A Hemi Challenger is not.

    Makes me realize the person who wrote this feature must be very young or a brand X only person. They proof read this and no one caught it.
