Sort of like a pic in the New Dodge Challenger ad that has a 73 facing the new one and it is called a 70!

 That mag sucks. You would think the year, make and model of the car would be the top priority when writing the article. At least they got two right. I'm surprised they didn't call it a Plymouth Charger.  :swear:

That might be a pre-pre-pre-production pilot car, which would make it very rare, since Carl Cameron's design hadn't even been chosen yet.

You would think these would be allowed to race in the super stock series with the 68 Hemi Darts and 68 Hemi Barracudas................. :burnout:

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.
