Hi, my name is Allen. I own a 73 Challenger. I bought the car in Dec 1973 when it was 6 mos. old with 6,000 miles, and still under warranty. It is original FE5 Rallye Red, black vinyl top, black buckets with console, A/C. Has the numbers 318, bored/stroked to 396, Eddy heads, 340 Hi-PO manifolds. was 904, now 727. 3:55 Sure-Grip, 15" rallye wheels, p/s, p/b with 4-wheel discs, 71 wing, black 70 bumblebee stripe. It was a daily driver for 10 years, rode hard and put away wet by a young me. After sitting in my parents garage for 17 years, I pulled it out and started throwing barrels of money at it. Has been restored and back on the road since 2004. Looking forward to chatting with members on this new-to-me forum.

Great looking cousin! Is yours a 72, 73 or 74? Original Rallye car? Mine is not, but I added the Rallye pieces, including the fender louvers. My car is a 73, but I moved the bumpers in. I see we added many of the same dress-up options. Front and rear spoilers, hood pins, flip gas cap.

It's a 73. It's not an original Rallye. I have more or less built it in a semi T/A style with front T/A spoilers and a 340 6 pak motor. Mov we d the bumpers in as well and joined the flop top gas cap. Had to have the hood pins as well. Painted in 1997 Dodge Viper blue. Love the color and it stands out a bit in the crowd.

Miss Blue says to thank you for the compliments and to say she gets driven a lot and hammered on in most of her drives when she gets out.
