That's what mine says too, go mango.
Here are a couple pictures of my promo set, the one picture is a few years old.  I had the red '73 with no box, but later sold it after I bought a yellow '73 with box and decals.
I wish I had a red '70, as my Challenger TA is FE5.
I keep my promos in bags in my display cabinet to keep them from getting dusty.
I always wonder why they never made a '74 promo, MPC had a '74 annual model Challenger?

WOW! I absolutely LOVE those promos! They were my dad's favorite thing to collect too. I could get rid of everything diecast related in my collection but could never let go of the promos. They hold a special place in my heart. When I was a kid, my dad used to let me play with his '68 and '69 Dodge Charger promos while watching Dukes of Hazzard. I don't know what happened to them after he passed away as I now have the rest of his collection. I'll have to save up some cash and hunt them down. :2thumbs:

I love promos too, but unfortunately, like most everything Mopar, they cost major money.  Since I am a Challenger guy, I concentrated on completing my collection of Challenger promos, and not pursued the others.  Late 60's B bodys bring a ton of money, cudas bring a ton of money.  At one time I saw desirable color cudas like purple and sassy grass green going for a grand if mint with box! :22yikes:
So I have my 5 Challengers ('70-'73 and the AMT 2008SRT), a '92 Viper, a '74 Charger, and a '92 Stealth in my promo collection.  I'll work on getting some other Mopar promos after I win mega millions!  :grinyes:

My friend scored this from a local warehouse. Needs some clean up and repair on the axles. Probably end up selling it due to the lack of room to keep it.

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.

Anyone ever seen one of these?
It's not a recent find, I think I got it off ebay around 5 years ago.
It's a "hemi dog" and it is sort of a bobble head type thing, the hemi engine bounces around.

It was used for Coors beer displays in stores. Just a body shell with a small tube frame and plastic wheels. I think it would look cool hanging from a wall in a garage or hobby room.
