challenger in the desert

[Harlow]

I spotted a challenger earlier today and came back and scouted it out later this afternoon. I didn't really get close cause I don't want to ruin my chances of possibly buying the car. I'm not too good with e bodies so maybe someone can tell what year it is by the pictures I took. The pictures are pretty bad cause I was trying to be fast and its covered up pretty good with trees. Its pretty far from the house and it doesn't appear that anyone is working on it. Heres the pic.

looks like 70-71 to me, my two favorite years. Id get some cash and go see the owner.

[Harlow]

thats what I'm thinking. maybe this weekend I'll head over in the satellite and just talk to the owner about it.

[The70RT]

Your about the scouter. Good Luck. I spotted a plum crazy one in a carpot a month ago or so but nobody is ever home. It has so much dust on it you cant see through the windows.

I think I see Bigfoot in that picture too.

Looks to be a '72 & up Challenger. I know where there is a Hemi Orange '70 Challenger in a garage litterally underneath about 2 feet of boxes and misc stuff near my girlfriend. The 2 car garage is so full of junk, the guy only has room for his Harley

[Magnumcharger]

Maybe that's Kowalski's car?

[Old Moparz]

I say it's a mid 1972 year model, that pic is simply a dead give away.     You can tell by the grille, the tail lights, the side markers, & I can see the build sheet under the carpet on the front passenger side floor where the carpet is worn. Only the corner is missing, the mice didn't get too far with it yet.


I'm curious as to how anyone can tell what year it is?

Damn, I was gonna say that

[The70RT]

Possibly a mod top too

[Charger_Fan]

I'm gonna say it's somewhere between '70 & '74.

[Silver R/T]

doesnt matter what year as long as you can get it for cheap

[TUFCAT]

...can I.....go for it TUFCAT, you know what to say

So sorry, I was slow on the trigger...here it goes..."
"CAN I USE THOSE PICTURES FOR MY WESBITE?"  - - Damn, that felt good. 

[70charger_boy]

   You said wesbite

[69bronzeT5]

 

[TUFCAT]

HA  - - I did say "Wes Bite"  ....I'm a joker and didn't know it.

I was wondering the SAME thing!! seems to me that the front and rear are covered by the trees and so are the side marker lights!!     maybe they have x-ray vision or something!!

Does the fuel filler cap look like a chrome flip top style to anyone else? 

[The70RT]

Yep

[Ghoste]

Would that not raise the odds of it being a 70 or 71?

[mopar-or-no-car]

  I have one on my 73!!

[2fast4u]

  I've owned a `73 and it had a factory flat chrome style so that rules out the notion of bein' a `70-71 model......fact is it could be any one of the 5 year models. and everyone is just guessin'.   but since we're guessin'. . . I'd say `73-74 year model.

[Ghoste]

I didn't even know they had a flat chrome style.  Was the chrome flip top one also available past 71? 

[2fast4u]

 `72-74 did not come factory with flip-top fuel doors!

[mopar-or-no-car]

`72-74 did not come factory with flip-top fuel doors!

you are correct they did NOT come FACTORY BUT I and so did a lot of other people put them on as they were available from the dealer to purchase!!
