You like the Camaro which looks nothing like anything GM ever built. You also like the GTO which is biult on the Camaro. The Camaro is what you would call a wannabe. GM came out with it to go up against the Challenger and the Mustang. I think the Challenger Daytona and Superbird lets us remember the old days. The musclecar is something to be enjoyed and if you like this, then so be it. As for me, I am planning to have this done in both versions. I have a Hemi Orange Pearl coat Challenger R/T. I think it might look great in this color. I don’t know about you guys wanting to trash the Challenger Daytona/Superbird. You like the Camaro which looks nothing like anything GM ever built.

The latest 4 door Charger looks like a turd on wheels. This car as that vintage style look. I want one!! I think the Daytona/Superbird for the Challenger looks great.

Muscle cars are all about having fun and turning heads. This turns heads and looks like fun. Well done. I understand matching numbers and making sure everything is authentic..but something like this gives you a chance to go back in time. Let’s face it, you’ll can’t buy a new 70 Superbird or Daytona drive it off the lot and hot rod it. You can buy a new Challenger start adding parts and have fun. Very cool, someone is having fun.

It was in a local car show in Riverton, WY a few weeks ago. What a joke, indicating only that this guy has more money than brains. A Superbird was a Plymouth, not a Dodge. It was Road Runner based, not Challenger based. This car has a real identity problem. Not really a Challenger, and certainly not a Superbird. My brother actually owned an original Superbird in 1971. This ain't it, and never will be; even way worse than making a GTO out of a Camaro. I saw the very car that “Wyoming” had built. It was in a local car show in Riverton, WY a few weeks ago.

It ran 180.2 MPH in the Texas Mile. I like the looks and I had one built. 686 RWHP for now and it will go over 200MPH. It ran 180.2 MPH in the Texas Mile.

But I am so digging the trunk lid that reel cool I think its cool but we need to keep legend car were they belong example we have jeeps with hemie that to me was a major mistake due to there is only one place that engine belongs and its in a dodge car NOT a jeep or truck because we are stealling the legend of what use to be rare from the old school cars that made them what they are and all though this concep looks cool we are steal trying to bring back some thing that belong in the pass lets just stop its cool that the old school cars are comeing back with the new looks and let that be are legend new school but we have to draw the line some were work with the new stuff and lleave the old stuff alone and let them have there well respected class of what america use to be.

The Challenger sits on the Charger platform ROFL! Who cares about historical correctness, I think it looks pretty good for a retro conversion. The old Superbirds were ugly anyways, who cares if the new ones are just as ugly. It just proves they are faithful.
