Bought this at a swap meet years ago, framed it at the time.
Just found it in my stash of parts
Good pic showing placement of the 1971 RT hood decal

I detect a vanishing point theme going on there! They used the same background in a number of other ads. purple car with rubber bumpers.

Jeff, Good Point.
I didn't make that connection
The venue of the photo does look like the same mountain and south western terrain from VP

1971 promotional shot from the Challenger brochure (with the guy in the original pic)
Looks like a similar car from the shot above except the white vs black RT decal
Plum crazy, rubber bumper and the desert.

It looks like the same mountain in the background from the brochure and on the right side of the original promo picture above.
