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.

Yeah that sucks but if you have a car like that, you should have  GPS.

At least the thieves are looking at a 9-13 year sentence  :grinyes:

Funny timing.  I just got a flyer in the mail for lojack for classic cars.  $295 one time fee, nothing else.

Anyone see this?

Wierd, I think for new cars it's $695 or so?  I wonder if it's the same unit?  For $295 it some good peace of mind.  :grinyes:  Along with securing you car with a locked garage, kill switches, 10 foot tall fence, removing the wheels, chaining the car to the garge floor and the 200lb Rotweiler...  :smilielol:

But seriously, looks like a good price...

Lojack I recommend.
The compamy reps hid a car with it. We went on the tracker Van to find it.
Took us less than 10 minutes to find it.

Sad about the GT. Was a very nice car.
