That is the "press release" or pilot cat, whatever you want to call it Charger 500.  If you look in the magazines of the day you will see this car in pictures and Chrysler press releases as the "new Charger 500".  It is a 1968 Charger.  It was originally RR1 Burgundy metallic. The owner that I have always know of this car is Jerry Service of Michigan.  He owns( or owned) a Black Hemi Daytona also with the White pin striping on it as we;; as this 500.
In my opinion this is the 'Holy Grail" of Charger 500's.

I agree..... Another friend of mine, Tom, owns #2 Press release car, but it is constructed out of a '69 shell........

I believe that the EPA Superbird had a white engine bay also.

Not bad, but this one is far superior. I wonder what she looks like today? I'm guessing it was the same time I was there; '81 I think?
