It is an original 70 RT/SE 383 auto, fc7, with quite a few options a/c, pwr strng ,pwr disc ,speed cntrl, 6 way seat, blk leather trim, am/fm stereo,tuff wheel, luggage rack, longitude stripe. It is unrestored, fromwhat i can tell repainted once w/2stage. Vin js29nob 2534--

Challenger RT/SE's are my favorate cars.  My friends bought one of those after high school and they were incredible cars.  They could get down on the street and had all the luxuries of the day.  Very pretty car.

That's a really cool car.  A fine example of a 70 Challenger.

I just wanted to inform you though, that Tuff Wheels never came on E-bodies.

Do you have the fender tag?
The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realize it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

253476? If so, it was for sale in Pittsburg back in 2004.

The Tuff wheel was not a factory option for any year E-body, so you can assume that was added at some point.

Did you save the images to another file before printing? If not, try it. They would be too big to print right if you tried it directly from the email for sure.
