Our Challenger was featured in the December 08 issue of Mopar Muscle in the rare finds section.

The car is also listed on Alaskan T/A's site:

Attached is a pic of the car that was in the magazine and an after picture.

...I love "Purple Haze"....it's "GROOVY TO THE MAX"  :cooldancing:

...even though it looks somewhat dated by todays standards, ya gotta realize how KOOL that would have been in 1969/70...I really love the old custom paint cars that have survived the decades of changes in our world, and have remained frozen in time

...another I spotted at the MOPAR Nats last summer

I wanted an AAR cuda since I was about 11 years old, dad bought me a die cast model of one that I still have, and my uncle had a 73 4spd that he used to take me in all the time.  When I was in 3rd year university, a black/black AAR  was being sold in Quebec out of an estate for $5500, I talked to the women who owned it and everything, but was short on the money to buy it, I would have had that car till my grave.    :walkaway:   Wasn't even that long ago, probably 1999 or 2000.

Not a magazine article but my Challenger was used to advertise the Playstation game "Driver2" in magazines all around the world with airbrushed alterations to the grille and rear lights to change its appearence slightly because of copywrite issues. It's computerised image and sound was also used in one section of the game.

If I finally get my car on the road next year it is going to be photographed for a feature in a UK magazine. But there is no way to know if they will actually use it. I will have to wait and see. I will be just happy to have it back on the street. :grinyes:

Never featured, but my orange 71 Cuda was in the October 1997 Mopar Muscle Readers Rides section.  And my 2007 Super Bee is in the issue of Mopar Collector Guide that just came out this week.  The pic is of me and the wife on the cruise from Phoenix to Mopars At The Strip.

My 71 Gunmetal Challenger RT was featured in the September 1994 issue of Mopar Collector's Guide. It made a few single shot pictures over the years and I spent 2 hours with Mopar Muscle Magazine taking pictures of the Challenger at the Mopar Nationals in Ohio but, it never made it to print the there magazine.

Rick Ehrenberg in Mopar Action made fun of my car when I ask if my car was a survivor....  :bricks1:   I'll scan it if I get a chance.
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.

Well, I'll be submitting pics and an article of my Viper acquisition to Viper Magazine.  I've already been told that they'll get it published.
