honorable mention to 05 and 69 Mustang


As long as we're doing honorable mentions, I'll put forth ... are you ready ... drum roll please ...

A 401-powered Gremlin. Always wanted one.  :bigsmile:

 :scared:  Did they have those from the factory???
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.

Daytona has some more shopping to do, and a whole heck of lot of coin to earn, to fulfill that list.  Currently I only see 2 cars on the list he can check off. 

 :clueless: Only 2?  He's getting close to the level of "mere mortal" now.....  :dunno:  I would have thought at least 8 of those cars!  :faint:

None from the factory, at least to the best of my knowledge. The factory did offer 304- powered Gremlins, and the 401 (as well as the 290, 360 and 390) are all the same block and will bolt right in. If I recall correctly the 401 only weighs 65 pounds more than a 304.
