The forum ad description stated that it was a 4-speed car with black leather interior. The only options that the ad stated (although it may have more that simply were not listed) were A34, A62, and C16. KA, do you know anything more about this shy and reclusive pachyderm that you can share?

I don't know that much about it. I haven't ever seen it in person. I have the pics of the fender tag and window sticker.

Yes black leather, 4 speed w/console, Super Track pack car. Tinted glass and flip top cap, AM radio, black stripes, and sill moldings.

Check out this unusual color combo on this '70 Challenger ... FF4 Light Green with a V9J Sublime Bumble-Bee stripe. I like it!

Owner claims that it is the factory original paint still on the car.

It's for sale over on Moparts here  http://board.moparts.org/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=8285995&an=0&page=0#Post8285995

Did Ma over spray sublime paint across the back of the car and then mask it for the light green?

the paint is chipping off on the valance and very rear end of the rear quarter.

I have numbers for 9 cars in that combo so far.

Yes the bumble bee stripes were painted first. Less masking to do it that way.

 :iagree: I've never been a big fan of blue , didn't hate it was just a "neutral" colour for me, but I really like that with the lighter blue stripe! Looks really good on your car! :2thumbs:

That is a great shot!! A good comparison to really see the differences of the Challenger and Cuda.  Thanks for posting.
