Did any moparheads see the new justin Timberlake movie IN TIME?  Well better rent it it has some way cool mopars in it. The time cops drive  matt black 1970 Challengers. burning rubber but sound electric.   These look sweet .Don't know who did all the customizing.  Do some google searches. I found three different sites .   Someone please find and post some pics of these challengers , they have tinted windows and r/t hoods.  and some kind of shiny wheel covers.


The older Mopars  have way cool custom wheels... this is a good movie with lots of action and the Challenger chase scenes all over the place.  :cheers:

May give it a look then.  Was going to skip but if there are some good car scenes in it then it deserves a chance.

If you scroll down through the pictures, apparently the flat gray Challenger with the odd grill is the one from the movie:

IIRC the car was built by Picture Car Warehouse in Reseda, CA. They brought the car over to last year's CPW Spring Fling in Van Nuys, CA. The owner (Ted Moser) has built a few famous MOPARS and owns a couple himself. Really nice guy too.

I dig that tail light treatment. I wonder what it used to be?

WANT TO BUY:
Looking for a CD by  'The Sub-Mersians'  entitled "Raw Love Songs From My Garage To Your Bedroom"

Also, any of the various surf-revival compilation albums this band has contributed to.
Thank you,    Kenny

My guess is a Challenger.

Thank you, Captain Obvious. You've saved the day, yet again. I meant the cover/ trim itself,  I wonder if it was designed for the car or if it's a piece of an old range or icebox or somthing. :slap:

You haven't sen it in the movie then, big difference seeing it with hidden lights flashing ,burning rubber and then when it gets stolen from the cop a super hot chick in it. At least they didn,t shove a stupid camaro in the movie.

I didn't get any good side shots, but IIRC the wheels for the cars in that movie came from USW Forged. A lot of their wheels are custom or one offs.
