Just got a Challenger

[Cannonball]

Noice car, did it start lif as a 340 car with the hood and valence etc ???? Jims chall tagtop is like that and also non rally dash instruments to, I notice your dash the black soft part is the wrong one and from a later challenger

[Mark B]

Yes I think it did. Also the vin says it’s a 1970 340.

I’ve been in contact with Jim and he says it’s a 340 A66 with the Performance Package so would have had the hood as standard.

It’s a late 1970 car so maybe they fitted the 71 dash. I’ve seen a few 1970 Challengers with similar dashboards.

Nice that looks like Dave Robsons old motor....

[Blue]

Funnily enough that was my first thought when I saw it.

[Mark B]

I think his car was an R/T. Reg: AKV 26H.
I understand this car was imported to the UK in 2005. Has New York license certificate on the windscreen from 2004.

[Blue]

Yes I just meant at a quick glance it's very similar and brought Dave's car to mind straight away. At a closer look the 2 cars are quite different in fact.

Very nice Mark. Congratulations

[Steve]

Oh yes........that's some car!!!! 340 supposed to be a great engine in the E bodies....beautiful and love the Mustang too

[Mark B]

Well the Dukes of Hazzard comments have started. Everyone says it's the General Lee. I can't be bothered to explain that that was a Charger, so just nod. And someone asked if it was a Cortina.

Yesterday took it and my Mustang to our local for my Birthday lunch.

Fantastic Camaro you have there!

[Steve]

Forget the cars.....check out the size of the hanging baskets!!

Looks like fun. Both cars look fantastic. That front end on the Mustang looks really mean!

Bloody hell Steve........Hand you man card in please!!!!

[Demon James]

Steve, you slay me, mate. I trust the "MAN" bag will be making its annual NEC appearance soon

Far more importantly though, a very very nice brace of cool muscle cars there

[MattH]

Excellent Mark, worth waiting and you got a 70 in one of the best colours, and the best engine combo for an E body.
I look forward to seeing it.

[Mark B]

Cheers Matt. Thanks for your advise. Got there in the end.
