Yah, add me to that list of one time Mopar guys that would take a new challenger. Not for the performance factor, more just a way to remember my youth! There is no way I could now afford the car I once had! They are all just a real expensive museums pieces! Even if I did, like Jeff’s JL8, they are now not cars to be beating on!
( Since I'm OLD ) I was around when Chrysler stuffed 426s and 440s in just about everything, 454s only made it into a few Chevelles, and 428 into even fewer fords. I ran a 70 challenger R/T 440 six pack and back then the elephants basically ruled, if not by HP just by pure out numbering the competition. BB F-bodies were rare, most 396's didn't exactly match up, the only thing that really struck fear in the Mopar guys were the cowl Chevelles, a 454 SS was a tuff race!
So yah, if I see a new challenger in plum crazy I might be getting a car loan!
Besides, it's my mid-life-crisis! I buy what I want!
Damn kids!
